Bankz that sounds v.promising! Let us know how you get on. Anyone the wiser about reducing the wind noise at speed -other than plugging the holes in my rusty bulkhead...? Alm.

Just make sure the tip of the tube makes solid contact, and doesn't rest on anything else. Few time I've been caught out like that leaving me scratching my head. Good Luck!!! Alm.

Not much help, BUT, in situations like this I find it's good to use a listening rod to locate the source of the vibration. Usually use the nearest bit of 1/8 tube I have around the workshop, should be easily discernible where it is loudest. Alm.

Yep, that's where the gasket goes. Reason I paid a bit more for my mild steel one is because I wanted a flexi on the downpipe. Makes installation a hell of a lot easier, especially if if necessary to re-install particulate filter for MOT - this is an ongoing debate..! Yes mild steel...

I recently fitted one of these, although it was from an ebay trader named Regisexhausts, link here: LAND ROVER DEFENDER 110 300TDi COMPLETE DE-CAT SPORTS EXHAUST SYSTEM | eBay It's mild steel, and has 2 year warranty same as yours. The rubbers are wrong, so buy new if yours are crumbled. This...

Second that, 11 Nm is correct. No probs, hope it works for you as well as it did for me... would just say, be careful with the puller bolts, I wouldn't trust the 8.8 rating at that price! Alm.

Did this over the weekend. I'd suggest you print out a picture of the front cover and label the bolt holes, then do the same with the bolts as they are all different lengths. Personally, I had some major issues with removing crank pulley bolt. Tried the usual method: fuel solenoid disconnect and...

Have seen there's a few fenders near me, thought I might be a rude git and ask if I can tag along to a g'laning day one weekend or nuther -I'm fairly new to the area... any takers?? Ta Alm.

I'm doing the timing belt in a couple weeks time. Purchased this to help with the job. Was the cheapest and most comprehensive kit I could find. Don't like the idea of paying twice the cost of a new timing belt kit for just one of the tools required for the job! Also, slowly slowly catchee...

I bought the disco tranny innards (christmas tree gears) for 99p off of ebay. Cheek of the bloke selling them didn't give me my penny change! Fitting and re-shimming is easy with appropriate knowledge -lots on here! Alm.

For the main light switch in my 300tdi (is yours 200tdi or 2.5td?) it's in this sort of sequence: Battery -> bonnet fuse box -> blue k109 header joint -> cab fuse box -> dim dip relay -> main light switch. It then goes back to fuse box for lights, and the return for the dash light (saying...

Had a similar problem recently; flasher i s on a separate circuit, and horn should be jumped off that also. The problem here is that your side lights work, so the main switch is evidently getting power somehow...:confused: Google is a great tool to search for defender docs, but what you see...

So here's a weird one: Red dash LED for imobiliser is always flashing (same rate as I've always known it to) irrespective of engine on/off. When getting into the car, I'll use a laserline type imobiliser fob, similar to this: Imobiliser Fob The led lights up solid when the fob is in...

Now that you mentioning, I think I remember reading something about the black hinge pin at the back having to sit horizontal for it to work right. Or maybe it was a dream... Will report back on closer inspection.

So I don't fancy paying £170 for a kenlowe to replace the viscous unit on the daily driven 110, so had a look on fleabay to see what I could find. Even though there's a lot of info on here on the unit out of a Ford Mondeo, I figure if I'm paying £20-30 from a breakers, I mayaswell pay £35-40...

Amazon is best bet for the 3M stuff. My 110 needed 16 large pads (500 x 500), which cost a hair over £60. The 7mm PE was £18 for more than required. Alm.

Let me know if you're close to Bicester, I still have some of the 3M stuff and PE foam left over -haven't done roof or side panels, but there will be lots to spare. Would be willing to part with these for a beer or twelve :) Alm.

Use diesel, nitro or similar marmite eating chemical. Maybe sit it in a bucket of heating oil for a couple hours. Don't use carbolic acid or beer-line cleaner; it will eat through ally, and yur mani will bubble and fizz into a gloopy mess. If you wanna go totally overboard, you could use an...

Remove side steps (x4) off teh 110, dismantle, grind, grease and paint. Also figure out how I'm gonna connect the wastegate actuator to the plenum. Alm.

Other internet sources suggest using vas because it isn't soluable in water, which makes sense (Land Rover Owner • View topic - why vaseline and not copper grease on battery .... this would protect the terminals. My terminals were so corroded they fell apart on contact, in order to promote...
