i am a novice in the Land Rover world and have a question for you intelligent enthusiasts!
I have a '87 Land Rover 90 with a 200tdi conversion. There is a rattling noise which sounds like a penny in a tin can which comes from under the passenger seat. I believe it is a problem with the exhaust. Is this likely to be the case? It is worst when in low revs. forgive my ignorance but what part would I need and can I replace it myself? Does the engine type have a bearing on the part I need? Thanks in advance!

Sounds quite loose, go look for the rattle bet it's an easy fix

It depends on what exhaust the builder put on it for the parts. Check the downpipe has been changed for a modified one and is not touching the bulkhead. Get under it and have a look, not much on an exhaust you could not do.

Also check that the bolts on the joints are still there, and that the mounting brackets are solid.

Thanks gents, I found it. It was an exhaust rubber but having fixed that I have found that the intermediate pipe has sheared which is why it had come loose. Oh well could be worse!
