Hi, I have been trying to track down a fairly intermittent warp warp warp noise (I have already checked and its not Klingons...). Happens in 2nd and third and only for a few seconds, Removed the rear prop thinking cheapest first and UJs. Took it to work today with the center diff locked and...

Best line...

Ahh yes, Rule 4

Didn't think they would be worth that much, although mine are the Solihull variety. Tidied mine up with a bit of black paint and a craft knife.

Rule 32... Found a couple of LandRover bits in the unfrequented drawers of me tool box so enjoyed an afternoon going a bit retro this sunny and warm day.

I spent 200 quid for an OEM pump at the main stealer after reading horror stories on here. 2 months later its weeping slightly from the back seal and out of the hole in the casting. Not sure if can be arsed to return it..... Mike.:mad:

Wouldn't be without air when travelling in my fender with my tribe. I have the 'poor' TD5 air, but even driving in 38 degree heat it gives a nice cool flow.

+1 on that Brown, just spent a week in Wales and got blanked by 90% of the Fenders there:dance:. So much so that the missus started taking the p*ss, asking what I'm upto and that. Complete change when back over the bridge. Mike.

Hi, Selling my OEM CD player on e-blag, it's out of my MY03 Defender XS. Its in good nick and full working order. PM me or just bid if you're interested. Cheers, Mike. LandRover CD radio unit | eBay

I've got several jerry cans of petrol diesel mix from mis-fuelled cars. I put a gallon or two in the tank of my 2003 TD5 then fill with diesel. Never had any trouble with it, up to 10% petrol is good in diesel if operating in cold climate, stops it waxing. Sounds like its not priming. Mike.

Got £84 back today, so expect to get your VAT back on the service exchange cost. Think I'll spend it on a slab...:) Cheers Mike. Replacing the power steering pump was a nice easy job, thanks to Shifty for the bleeding dodge posted a while back.

Have had a Hannibal on mine for the last ten years, they are the ****, have hopelessly overloaded it with all manner of building supplies and not a murmer. All that weight on top doesn't improve the handling mind... Never been garaged and still in good nick.

Thanks all for the replies, I'll expect £84 back then. Will post next week some time and let you all know how I got on with this. Cheers, Mike.

Hi, Bought from LandRover, see what you mean on the url you posted. I looked at HM Revenue & Customs: Instalment payments, deposits, credit sales and VAT looks like HMRC like it both ways, probably why they have so much of my money and all their accountant chums are on six figure salaries:mad:

Hi all, Just blew £282.23 on a new power steering pump for me fender. I know, I know e-blag, pads crads etc. But as the original lasted 11 years and 90,000 miles thought I'd go for OEM. £70 of the total is a surcharge to encourage me to return the leaky item. Looking at the bill I have...

Fit a new, hopefully non leaky steering pump. Probably drink some beer and burn stuff:)

Hi, Changed the battery on the remote for my 110 XS 2003 a few times over the years and never had to resynch. Mike.

Bank holiday project completed, well nearly. The plan was to chop down the read door wheel carrier and bolt it to the bonnet such that the tyre was in contact with the bonnet when bolted down, spreading the load to as large an area as possible. Top tip, sort out your heavy duty bonnet prop...

My 110 came with boost alloys from the factory. Been up to the job so far........:)

Borrowed a set of these while I was having mine painted. Think they are from a Disco 1. Mike.
