Just make sure you're keeping the fluid topped up enough otherwise it draws in more air, that was my problem. Eventually just got the person operating the clutch to keep an eye on the reservoir rather than me crawling out from underneath it all the time, took longer than I would have liked though lol

yes.. that also happend to me, turned out the helper was looking at the wrong thing.. lol
 
Stripped and cleaned the offside headlight on the disco, cause it had a litre of water in it and looked like a fish tank!!
 
New 4" speakers in the dash Vibe Slicks on special at halfords, the 14 year old ones didn't like the new head unit installed a couple months back.
 
Well found out why I cant bleed the clutch... my drives on a slope so the nipple was not the highest point!
Run out of time again! job for the morning before whaddon :eek:
 
Give me a shout if you need a hand to bleed it! otherwise I will see you at Whaddon, I have put in Two sleepers so you can cross the stream if you don't want to cross the waterhole
 
Took the rear axle breather pipe to bits, it was bunged up. Cleaned it all up and refitted. Think I need to get some new pipes as they are rotted.
 
Whilst working on my Defender this morning my neighbor said. If you want to go to Africa get a Defender, If you want to come back get a Toyota. Ba-tered
 
Kicked and shouted at it!

Went out this morning to pop to the shops and the battery was dead! I've been doing 40-50 miles a day all week so have no idea what that was all about. RAC man came and jumped it as my boater was flat as well and he did a battery check and said its fine, no dead cells etc.

Ill have to keep an eye on that now!

Cheers mate. I got a pressure bleed kit now so fingers crossed I should be alright now, I've also turned her around to face uphill.
Saw the vids, I'm subscribbed to your youtube channel, looks good. You've put lots of work into the site!
 
You should check out how to reverse bleed it, looks so much simpler and easier. Will definitely be the method I'm using next time
 
Welderised me passenger door......it's still fooked but at the the removable door top int gonna remove itself...

My lad had resorted to clinging on to it on the motorway the other day despite me telling him that it'd 'probably' be ok :eek:
 
Me and bro fitted the other rockslider (been driving around with only one all week :eek:_, we had a little help from our (cyber) friends
 
I doubled up the sleepers this afternoon, also put some slabs down so we can cross the stream further up (where people tried to cross and end up bending their steering bar). We can do a full circuit now without crossing the waterhole. Another vid will be on shortly. See you tomorrow.
 
Took the bearing out of the squealing AC on the 300tdi, I just have to find n buy a replacement one now. Fixed the knackered and horrible sagging drivers seat with nylon cord and a few giant tie wraps.

The nylon clip nut thing on one of the rear window mechanism fell apart and i couldn't find one anywhere, so after some google'ing and a bit of youtube inspiration ended up with this 10p fix / bodge.
