thanks for the replies gents, If I can't get a replacement I will dismantle it cut a new "cam" and rivet it on. Just thought it would be easy to chuck a few quid at it and sort it for good. Cheers again

As the accident was not your fault, and as the vehicle is not damaged to the point where it would be unsafe to repair it - they cannot write it off purely on cost grounds. You can insist they repair it to the previous condition or give you the cash equivalent. I would take the 5k in...

Hi Gents, The door latchmechanism on our early 90 is worn so that you can't quite open it from the inside the part number is MUC6979 but it's no longer available as it is a lift up handle version with an inside door pull handle too. any ideas on where to find one (already tried Ebay and the...

Hi Gents, we have put a 300 tdi in a 2.5 n/a and have fitted an electric fan the kit puts a switch in the top hose, but I was wondering if any one on here has replaced the egr temp sensor in the head for a switch to control an electric fan? if so where did you get the switch from, and at what...

Hi Dave, I have changed seals and rebuilt compressors on mine and others a number of times - fitted the recon last time cos I was fed up with iffy seals, and on one occasion the retainer ring letting go after the rebuld and chewing the bore. I wondered if a later compressor from a third gen RR...

Hi Gents, She doesn't have a leak as she doesn't drop noticably even when left for days on end, she isn't used full time so can stand for a week or more without use and without dropping. Just cleared the air supply fault with RSW software and low and behold she rose from the M/W height that she...

Hi Gents, I have looked at the thread on upgrading the EAS pump but having just had the recon pump I bough 2 1/2 years and less than 8k miles ago have the seal go (its the third pump in 8 years) I would like to know has anyone found a reasonably priced alternative compressor that works or has...

thanks for the advice gents - swapped it for spare unit - appears O.K. apart form the hand book symbol- which I already know is due to the compressor clutch being U/S thanks again

hi is 965 the code for landrover steel blue? if it is I always suspected same colours had the diffferent names to "adjust" how much they can be sold for

thanks for the reply data tech - I have a spare hevac unit, If I swap it will it need to go on the diagnostics to recognise the new one and clear any faults it has logged Cheers

Hi gents, hoping someone will know the problem with my hevac. basically it has decided that all the lights and display should just flash on and off in steadu time - nothing worksblowers, demist programme, changeing the direction of air, all that happens is what everyou select the light of it...

Yep easy, you'l need to buy a rear door and then buy the hard top preferably as 1 piece not as seperates, dead easy to swap the t/c

Thanks Gents, triffic photo ARC, it shows exactly what I need to do. Thanks Again

Hi Gents, Need to chenge the rear Outrigger as its gone on the inside edge of the Chassis, does any one know where I can get a full length outrigger that will go right through from outside to the inside edge. All the replacements I have found are for the outside of the chassis only. If I can't...

personally, I would contact the Landrover press office, and tell them that due to the poor service from the dealer ( be sure to name them) you are off to buy a landcruiser, after writing an article for the motoring press about customer service, unless they can intervene, and see what happens...

They could be the feeds to the fuse box from the back of the starter solenoid, early 90 wiring used Brown as live feed

Hi Gents, anyone thinking of increasing the fuelling at full boost would be advised to fit an Exhaust Gas Temperature guage cos in a diesel the richer it runs the hotter the combustion temps - if it gets up to the 720 degress Centigrade mark you will bugger it up big time - the engine temp gauge...

Hi Daz - found it thanks

Cheers Gents, if loads of folk had done it with total success I would have given it a go, but as it is I reckon its time to buy a DTI Gauge and mount

Hi There, I like the look of it, can I ask where did you buy it, what did it cost,and do you have a part number. Cheers
