My first td5 automatic also had this issue (even it was owned by a LR mechanic). The HI-LOW lever was never used so the cable inside "dried" and did not move. I gave it to a hard push (used my legs finally;)) and it slowly started to move, after a few more push-pull it become OK again. So the...

Hello Maciej Any news on your problem? I have quite similar issue, low power and black smoke under 2000rpm (except that the car runs great) but could not find the root cause yet. My car remapped, no error code, all nanocom parameters seems to be ok.

polished the head lights. Amazing difference after only 30min job! Looks like new!

Sorry for missunderstanding, I am not native english speaker:) Originally I had 2" lift by using britpart set. So I can not compare to that (shocks were out anyway). First I installed KYB springs and Monroe shocks and found them too soft and one side of my car was a bit down (about 1" compared...

I have bought them from Paddock. Still available there.

I did this on mine last year. Used standard springs (for me the recommended was REB000330) with Bilsteins (also the steering damper). Very satisfied with the result.

And use only good quality glue. I have done mine two times as first time the new headlining dropped off due to the quality of the glue (after about half a year),

Mine also sits slightly higher at the front (air springs on the rear) since I changed front springs to new and also shocks to Bilsteins. But both the front and rear within spec.

here in this area (outside of UK) these are, unfortunately, realistic prices. In Hungary my car (2003 D2 with about 170kmiles) can be sold for about 7k€. For the D1 petrol the 12k€ also seems realistic as it looks really nice (probably no rust as it is in Italy) and almost an old timer now. If...

I do not want to guide you to a wrong direction but in my case the problem (intermittent failure) has gone when I changed the SLABS ECU (due to other reason as it started to behave strange). I also planned to do the mod on the SVS valve but as the problem shoved up only few times and I could...

Ok thanks, I will try. Regarding on the given P/N (17111719167) it lists a lot of different make from cheap to expensive but I could not see genuine BMW... I guess Mahle or Gates could be fine...

Hi All I hope you are all fine! Today I discovered a slight water loss which was never before. I had to refill about 2dl to recover water level in reservoir tank. I do not see any leak, broken hose or connection. I suspect that it comes from the tank overflow pipe as I see water marks on the...

I have a 2003 td5 manual in really great condition and never had below 28 mpg (mixed driving condition). Are you sure that you had 32 mpg before? Have you checked it several times? I usually refill the car on the same way and on the same petrol station (full, one click on the pistol) and...

I also have mine broken. maybe they can help: www.exmoortrim.co.uk

A few months ago I also had problem with my ORM (also with CDL management) and by changing SLABS ECU (Thanks Fery) solved my problems. (also an interesting thing: even the 3 amigos what I had before a few times have gone. Since i have the new ECU no amigos. maybe just luck though...)

Gearbox LT85, engine Cazorla 6 cyl 3.3 liter diesel.

I have made some searching on google and found that it is very much like a series 3 109... Is it possible to buy parts for such car on places where normal LR parts are sold or only from Spain?

Hi all So far I have owned 2 D2 Td5 (actually I have one) but do not know much about Defenders. I know that it was also produced in Spain (named Santana). There is one for sale now in Hungary (from Spain), looks good and can be a nice old timer. Is it a real Land Rover or only something similar...

Update! Unfortunately the car has sold before I could go and see. So probably it was good...(even it was around 6000 ponds).

I had similar issues and changing the SLABS ECU (to SRD000150) has solved my problem. I have bought it cheap (about 20 pounds) so worth to try.
