Thanks all everyone was wrong though lol. It turned out to be the mounting rubbers for the air filter totally cracked loose and they had failed. What’s weird is you couldn’t hear it outside only inside the cabin. But if you lifted the air filter chirping stopped. replacement rubber mounts...

Hi all so took my Landy Laning on Sunday and on the drive back home it developed a weird squeaky chirping sound. thing is it seems more like a loose trim piece somewhere than any kind of bearing or belt or whatever. this is what I’ve established so far. Chirps occasionally at tickover...

Completed Rudland Rig in the North York Moors on Wednesday. It was absolutely spectacular for photos

Owned my 1999 Land Rover Defender 90 about 10 weeks or so now. I assumed the colour was Rioja Red paint code 601. However, I’m not sure if its actually Alveston Red now? It’s a 1999 300 TDI CSW, one of the last registered. It had a build date of 16th April 1998 if that narrows down what the...

Thanks all in the end I got these gun: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/CLEARANCE-CALWELLS-GREASE-GUN-500CC-BULK-FEED-OR-400G-CARTRIDGE-PROFESSIONAL-/154632306117?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l6249&mkrid=710-127635-2958-0 Grease...

Typo 300 TDI in the title. As the title says really. Need to grease my prop UJ’s ASAP really as driven about 1600 miles in my 90 so far. Didn’t realise lot of folk recommend doing it once a month at least? I haven’t been off-roading in it yet though and its just on the road miles? if anyone...

Curious about pricing tbh it’s quite hard to find brochures and stuff online which reflected the prices from the period. Wondering what the first owner of mine would’ve paid for mine a 1999 300 TDI 90 factory CSW in metallic Rioja Red paint.

Thank you that’s perfect

Hi all does anyone know who sells the correct colour carpets to match my 90 CSW 300 TDI? I have looked on eBay and although there are quite a few full front carpet sets they all seem to be black in colour rather than the ash grey or charcoal I have. The carpets actually don’t look too bad on...

Hi there I have sent you a DM :)

yes I think so. If you can let me know best way to do this logistically. I.e payment and stuff PS sorry for delay in response. Thanks Ryan

that’s very nice how much do you want for it. I’m very sorry I haven’t been logged in for a few days, busy with work and such but very interested in it. mines got a slightly different logo on it, but otherwise it’s the same. some people don’t think this design of wheel are period correct on a...

Mines a 1999 300 TDI and it has 36. Apparently all the station wagons did up until the mid 2000’s. The non station wagons all have 48.

Thanks how much do you want for it? Pics would be useful. Does it look like my one above? I only want the one which looks the same as mine currently as I really like it. Not a fan of the later design with a flat centre bit.

i upgraded the head unit to a Blaupunkt Bremen and the speakers to Kenwood, it sounds excellent for two channel. I also packed a bit of foam around the new speakers to improve bass response in the dash. my head unit looks like this it’s a modern unit Blaupunkt make but styled to look like...

Unfortunately I can’t change my wheel for a smaller one as I just bought a large sized steering wheel lock and at £140 I am not buying another lol. just never new the 300 TDI CSW was 36 spline.

Wheel swap day yesterday upload pic

sorry nope that’s the hands free Microphone for my Blaupunkt Bremen Stereo, best place to put it i thought

Picked up this wheel at Peterborough over the weekend, I was told it would fit my 300 TDI fine as its 48 spline. However, turns out as mines a CSW model from the tale end of TDI production, it actually uses a 36 spline wheel, Who knew? These seem much harder to find annoyingly in good condition...

Yeah I think overseas Market production of 300 TDI ended in like 2003 Didn’t it? Mines a Factory County Spec Station Wagon. It does also come back as a 3 door estate car rather than a panel van on the documentation. I’d guess if military spec it would’ve been one of the Station Wagons which are...
