So, I'm British living in Tennessee. SO options are somewhat limited. The car is UK built, RHD, '75 - 78 UK, then spent 1978 approx to 2010 approx in Western or Northern Territory. Australia, then somehow came to USA. My alternator died...

Hello again. I've replaced the vacuum actuator, but unfortunately the light reappeared after 20 minutes driving. The judder has improved a little, but is still there at around 1500 to 1700 revs. The old actuator did appear faulty as the arm...

Is there fluid dripping onto the floor or bulkhead? Check for damp spots. If that's bone dry "up top" I'd be paying attention to the slave cylinder. A dodgy master cylinder reservoir would not totally empty, like your photo. A weeping slave will...

Wow thank you this is an amazing response... OK I've just been out with my torch & had a second look at the compressor & i could not see any labels so not sure what make it is. I'll be on it tomorrow & get right under there. 1. Do I have to...

i changed the front valve block.

2k is about right for a brimmed tank isnt it?

I have a 2012 RRS L320 3.0 SDV6 HSE, It feels crashy compared to my aged 2004 L322 TD6 But worst of all the suspension is playing up. When I press access mode the car begins to lower then returns to normal height. i get fault code saying pressure...

Had a few months of relatively trouble free motoring so all good. And I'm writing this in the dark, opposite side of the house, and under sheets so hopefully the spiteful bitch won't hear me thinking it. But I did do the gearbox filter and oil...

TRW , Girling and Delphi good brands for the master and slave , you can repair kits but the bores need to be in good condition, have a look in the workshop manual for how to. Sounds like you don’t drive it much so have a go , good learning...

I would try new fluid first just to confirm where it is leaking from.

I had one of mine go like that :(

10p td5 engine in a discovery 2. Having running issues with a friend’s td5. Cut out the other day at 60mph, puff of smoke and then struggled to start it. Ran for 3/4 minutes then died again and had blowby. Got it recovered back to his...

That doesn’t look like it’s ever had any fluid init.

Hi wise minds! I'm still quite a newbie, but my 1972 lightweight has decided it doesn't want to play changing gears anymore even though it seemed ok last time I drove it. Went and checked the master cylinder and its totally empty. eek. I'm...

Should have said - I could have popped in and got some pics for you 😁

Haha will do, good advise!

Do you own research on Land Rover specialists, believe it or not it has been known for sellers to tart them up and make them shiny while the chassis is full of rust. Also make sure the id is matching the log book as Defenders tend to get stolen...

Ouch thats a sore one, my policy almost doubled.

FFS welcome back 🤣

What's the story behind why you decided to replace the master etc. Was the clutch OK before or not? Slave will fit either way to the bell housing but the nipple has to face up to be correct.

I have not been in their for years, went in the once and asked for price on front brake pads for wifes A6, 96 quid he said, I was still laughing when I walked out the door.

Yeah I know but just thought of throwing that in there just. I am a nerd for oils. I got to throw this last one as well but if you want to keep your motor really clean, google "insane diesel - 1 micron progressive filter". I dont have it because...

the section of the aux junction box you need is RJB4 as this is mostly battery fed items whilst RJB2 is ignition controlled items. if the connection are present in either FD4,FD9 OR FD12 you can use one to power your remote relay this will allow...

Best thing about the 200 swap is no chassis changes are needed, so dead easy to swap back if you so desire. As for the dvsa less you tell them the better, so long as insurance co know it has had an engine swap no worries in my eyes.

Thank you for the Youtube idea! I will learn how to make a movie on youtube and get that done. WRT the prop shaft, once I remove it, how will I recreate the clunking sound without the prop shaft being hooked up?

Welcome to LZ, google will tell you all you need to know.

Starlink?
