🤣 hahahahaha no I have a stock td5 defender

Thanks for all the replies. I am in Oxford with no off street parking so have to rely on jump pack. Where is the trailer socket as I have a solar panel? I have used it each day and no problem.

Hey mate, so I seem to have alleviated the overheating issue by modifying the compressor exhaust (thanks YouTube) but it’s still “lifting slowly” and although the back goes up and down happily, not a lot of movement (some) from the front.. but...

@britaddict add your town name to your forum profile. Might be someone nearby that could help with RAVE.

Although I agree it's unlikely to be the IACV, worth checking & cleaning anyway. Are all the LPG hose secure on the manifold ? Prob worth cleaning the throttle body & checking for leaks there as well.

I find these videos interesting. Even though they are all basically the same the S1 has strengths as does the 90. Interesting to see the S2 ground out on the waterfall on the diff crossmember and tow ball where the others didn’t.

Very easy. Buy a fuse piggy back + an inline fuse. Wire the piggy back into a switch with an inline fuse. Push switch it cuts off power to the fuse and TC/ABS is off. However it will turn off ABS as well so not for road use. Turn it back on...

The Blaupunkt one is 400€ or £450 from a UK seller !! I put one of these in my Blue P38. And yes changed the backlighting to green !! Sounds good, and because the speaker outs are floating (effectively balanced), it worked out of the box...

Just short of 106€ not bad really if it's a nice system. There is some utter crap around 😵

Only key fob left finally died... and I mean it died no battery replacement fixed it, I've been meaning to replace it for a while now... Only noticed when I unlocked the drivers door went to open the bonnet because its a land rover at heart and...

I'm with the green thing (@kermit_rr ) on this one, earth problems.

Sorry, I return after one month on this thread, I drive the car in "Italian style" (yes, I'm really Italian!, only my normal style of drive is relaxed, so I take for this month a more sprint drive mode), and I have added for 2 consecutive time an...

...that the transformation of that old chair has begun. :) First coat of black satin finish acrylic. Needs more, but it is a start. She likes it and that's all that matters. :D

Has any one done the automatic break bleed on a TD5 cannot find what is involved only how to initiate on my Hawkeye

Wait ... wait ... I think I can see ... nope, my crystal ball still isn't right, no way can I work out what car you have. Sorry @LG199714 you'll have to tell us. It can't be anything from VAG as they already have a button. My Toyota has one...

Nice one. Well done!

At least it’ll come back. My daughter ‘borrowed’ my F1 when I got my F2 and it never came back. She is now the proud owner of it… uses it as her daily. Of course, she paid for it - not!

Can't seem to open the link. I thought this looked reasonable but apparently it only has blue backlighting. https://caraudiocentre.co.uk/products/sony-dsx-a510bd?_pos=1&_sid=5146cda7a&_ss=r

They are running hotter than ever now for the emissions, hence the coolers and heat exchangers bolted to everything 😵

Thank you everybody who took the trouble to respond. As always Landy Zone members were enormously helpful and enabled me to finish the job. Looking at the various stages of solving the problems I probably knew some of the answers but didn’t...

I found these on the internet…

Thanks

Thanks. I have chucked stuff into the tanks of all my vehicles that are lying idle. Not in the country so I cannot check the bottle out. Is that likely to have prevented it? I think it calls itself "fuel conditioner" blue stuff, as far as I remember.

Yes, I have abs and tc. Turn off/on TC

It's basically the diesel tank equivalent of algae. Biological matter that grows in the diesel. The vehicle has been stood for nearly 4 years so without any agitation or fresh fuel its probably provided ideal growing conditions. It's not that...

Yeah, there was a whole in the piece between the windshield and the bonnet for an antenna for the after market radio. Quite likely the water is slowly dripping down the cable, the antenna is still but will have to go as well.

its worth that just for useable parts

They read as ok

I can't say I have, I didn't really consider that because she runs as smooth as silk up to and after these episodes
