Hi All, I am doing some research for a YouTube video I am making as I have noticed some sellers more recently seem to be trying to sell converted hard top vans as genuine CSW's, but in reality are often pretty crudely converted. Obviously, as you do tend to pay a bit of a premium for the...

Where do you put the stop leak in the plastic fluid tank itself?

Yeah its just a little bit of floppy movement just before hitting full lock but only when turning right weirdly its always been present that though

Thanks sorry its a 1999 T Reg 300 TDI 90 CSW Also just to add just before full lock there is a bit of a dead spot (side to side) movement when turning right just before hitting full lock, but there is no play or anything when driving normally, when wheels are straight and true if that means...

Noticed my steering box seems to have recently developed a bit of a wet patch on the underside and a slight drip of rusty looking fluid on the floor this morning The black power steering reservoir seems to be full though and at the normal level. Is it worth trying to use some of that stop leak...

All fitted

I like the white writing lol

I have Boost alloys more worried about them catching on full lock

Picked up a brand new set of five at billing as I recently discovered that the ones on mine are original KOs (not 2s) dated from late 2002 so are dangerous to use now being 20 plus years old. The ones on right now are 235 85 R16 but the ones I bought are 265 75 16 Am i going to run into any...

So, it was the last fluid to get done on my landy everything else was done last summer. after the oil drained off I noticed this sharp metal edge just on the inside of the drain plug casing anyone ever seen this type of poor casting before? unsure when this oil was last changed, but there...

My diff lock has always been temperamental tbh. When I first got my CSW I don't think it had ever been in low range as it was basically fused into 4WH. My mate freed it up and it now works good in low range. However, the diff lock gear knob was always kind floppy after this. I've never really...

thanks yeah already ordered. Is it worth adding something like a radiator flush maybe a week before changing the coolant so it can be breaking down all the crap how long can you keep it in before you need go change coolant...

Is using Distilled water okay? Or should I just use tap water?

Thanks, this is what I bought in the end Comma SCA5L 5L Super Coldmaster Antifreeze and Coolant Concentrate , Blue : Amazon.co.uk: Automotive That seems like it will work

hard to say as I replaced some hoses last year and lost some, but not all coolant and just added some of the universal stuff from Prestone, which I probably shouldn't have done, but it was only a small 1 litre bottle for a top up. I can't really remember but this time I am going to totally hose...

Hi all, Seen a few postings regarding coolant on here, but many of them are over 10 or 12 years old now. Not sure if things have moved on in that time or not? I am going to be flushing my radiator and cooling system in coming weeks and replacing my anti-freeze. I am not entirely sure what I...

So I bought the cheaper Gravity performance one which looks quite decent for money. does any know though if I have to remove the front plastic LR grille to get the radiator frame out? Apparently there is some bolts, Reason i ask is I have a nudge bar with wired up spotlights on the front and I...

Thanks I think I might go for Gravity one then? Regarding install does the radiator have to come out as well? The limited videos I have seen they all seem to take the radiator out too, but to me it looks like it would just slide out without needing to do that?

So was told by a mate other day that my Intercooler is looking a bit worse for wear, (it definitely looks a bit shabby and tired) I was thinking of replacing it or upgrading it, but tbh I don't know what to go for. The prices seem to vary wildly from about £100 for something like this...

About a month ago I fitted new light surrounds along with the standard Defender side lights (replaced my enlarged NAS spec ones). I have been away in Canada for the last month and just arrived back home before Christmas, so I have not really driven my Defender all too much However, I noticed a...
