    Gearbox Oil

    I have a 2002 Disco 2 td5. I changed my gearbox oil about 10k ago to MTF94. There was quite a bit of fur on the plug magnetic but since I don't know how long it had been since the oil was changed so I thought I would reserve judgement until the next oil change. After the oil change it was...

    Tool for transfer box oil filler?

    I tried to check the transfer box oil level on my recently bought disco 2 but the handbrake cable is even more in the way than on my defender. Well actually I assigned my 19 year old son to do this after he checked the front and rear diff oil levels while I was doing something on another car...

    3 Amigos Lights

    Thank you. Neil. He visited and helped. He cleared the faults but the front right sensor came back. I've ordered a new sensor. Plus on Neil's advice a new wheel unlocking nut. As the old one was split. Neil was also shocked when I bought out my torque wrench to take the wheels nuts off so...

    Correct bolt for the alternator on 300tdi?

    I've lost the bottom bolt that holds the alternator in place on my 300tdi 110 Defender. So the altnative is just swinging. I did measured the length and thought I needed a 150mm long bolt but did a google and saw someone suggesting that it's 130mm x M8. Does another know what length bolt I...

    Transfer Box Puma onto a 300tdi?

    The transfer box has gone on my 1996 300 tdi 110. I've been quoted £600 + vat by the garage. Must be cheaper. Where can I get reconditioned ones? Someone has a Puma from a 2002 will that bolt straight into a 300tdi?

    Oil Leak and Ticking noise

    Thanks my wife is going to try and post some pictures but the oil leak appears to be coming from the front of the engine. My initial idea was the sump plate. Sorry I don't know if that is the correct name but the plan/plate at the bottom of the engine where the dirt from the engine oil sits...
