I don't suppose you have a picture you could show me? :o

The mechy who fixed it told me it was the hardest job he had ever had near-enough. He was on the verge of actually giving up and throwing his hands up in abandonment. He basically could *not* get the pulley to re-tighten at all at first he told me. Eventually he was able to restore it but the...

110 300tdi

A garage I asked to change the timing chain on did so. A few thousand miles later the engine began running like crap. I took it to another garage and they told me that because thread-locker had not been used by the garage changing the timing chain, the crank pulley had become loose and possible...

The smell from the exhaust smells sickly, sweet like Mayo mixed with Diesel fumes. Anyone got an idea what this might be? Cheers

Thanks for the feedback lads. I hope this will fix the issues I'm having but fear I might have underlying problems. http://www.landyzone.co.uk/lz/f16/fuel-leak-nightmare-saga-post-235919.html About 3 years ago I put oil and white spirit into my fuel tank and I'm wondering if my leaks are from...

How easy is it to remove and fit a new one?

It has a split in it and I need to get a replacement part. Is it easy to fit or does it require bleeding the air etc ?

Hmm I wonder if that would cause the stench into the exhaust system??

OK! The story so far... I've been driving about in it. The issues are worsening slightly. Now when I am starting it up after a long period there are clouds of white / pale smoke erupting from the exhaust with a mayonnaisy smell. When warmed up the smoke disappears but at low revs in-gear...

I haven't a clue if it's timed correctly, but on starting up one time it ****ed out diesel for about a second then stopped! I can't tell for sure where the leak is coming from on the pump, the middle bit at a guess. I trusted the mechy to fix it and he's gone and made things worse in my...

I've had an issue where there's been a leak of diesel fuel from my engine to the floor below. Not a fast leak but a slow slow leak. So I took my lannie (a Defender 110 300TD) to the local garage to have a look. They looked at the injection system and told me it needed a new one or an overhaul...

Leak is from the main pump itself on the underneath bit. Ordered one for £300 on fleabay.

Fuel injection pump! The garage I've just put it into have given me an estimate of £1000!!! as the price to get it serviced and overhauled etc! I told them to ram it and I might as well get a new one for that silly amount! Looking on ebay they seem to be a lot cheaper. Anyone got any advice?

Anyone got a second opinion on this? Do seals on these things commonly go after 100,000 miles on a fifteen year old lannie?

Had a leak under the bonnet, just had it checked out by the garage and he confirmed it as a leak in the fuel injection system. I have a 300 TD engine with over 100,000 miles and he says it needs to be removed and overhauled. I asked him on the all-in price for such a fix and he reckons it...

Had anyone fitted and used the Britpart Clutches on a Defender? Are they any good? I know Britpart have a reputation for some mediocre stuff though... Anyone brave enough to admit if they've fitted such things to their lannie? LAND ROVER DEFENDER 200/300 TDI HEAVY-DUTY CLUTCH KIT | eBay

Looks good.

Hi guys, it's been a while since I've been on LZ but I've got this wierd noise coming from the engine when I pull up to a halt / traffic lights etc. It's coming from the engine bay but 'underneath' it on the drivers side. Hard to describe but basically it's something rattling about once the...

I'm finally there lads, got my solar flexi-panels mounted and wired up. All my own work too (as it shows). This blazing sunshine helps charge up the battery no problem. I was getting over 40 volts from 120 Watts (2 x 60 watt panels in series). Here's the video I buzzed up on it...
