    What have you done on your 90/110/130 today?

    That is a VERY good question @marjon . It has only gone into the engine oil (at the recommended dilution). The plot thickens. šŸ˜‚

    What have you done on your 90/110/130 today?

    Grabbed a bottle of UV leak detection fluid from a mate, having cleaned up the underside with some degreaser. Under UV torch in the dark, this seems to be the offending area (at least the immediate one I can see). Will take more of a look in the daylight. Thought the UV photo may make...

    New Rattle Noise (w/ Video)

    Itā€™s dark so I canā€™t take a good look, but thought someone may be able to play ā€œname that tune rattle. It feels like itā€™s coming from the rear but this may be the sound travelling through something else. Happens when Iā€™m off the throttle mostly, or at lower revs and happens regardless of clutch...

    Meaning leave a bottle on it with some tape / ties? Iā€™ve cleaned the top of the engine 3/4 weeks ago and it hasnā€™t gotten any dirtier. Iā€™ll give the underside a spray with some cleaner and give it a jet wash at the local garage. šŸ‘ŒšŸ»

    Had a roll around on my back to see where most of the oil was coming from on the driveway. Seems to be coming from most areas. Anywhere youā€™d be starting first or just usual defender life?

    Hole Identification on LT77 Gearbox

    Iā€™m still learning about the Defender 90 as I go. Was hoping someone could help me understand what the two ā€œholesā€ are on the photos attached. These are captured from a video I took underneath when I was looking for something else. Appreciate the help!

    1m light bar fixings

    Iā€™ve been gifted a 1m roof light bar but without any brackets. Does anyone have examples of how the same type of light bars have been fitted, conscious that itā€™s not the full roof width. āœŒšŸ»

    5th gear ā€œresistanceā€

    Iā€™ve noticed today that in 5th gear at higher speed (55/60) and when I take my foot off the accelerator, it feels like I have more ā€œresistanceā€ (for want of a better word). I can feel it through the accelerator pedal and generally in the cabin. Is this something obvious (that Iā€™m struggling to...

    The first one I received that didnā€™t work was an aftermarket speedo cable from LR parts The one I have just received which worked was from Wick 4X4 on eBay.
