Texas90 - really interested in how you get on with JE, they come across
professionally. I plan to get a stage 1 plus revised speed limiter on my 2.4 Ford lump. Let me know the results after you get it done please
Cheers!
Help......I've recently changed from a TD5 to a 110TDCi, my insurance is up for re-newal and due to the value of the TDCi (£22.5K) I can't get coverage for green laning or ocassional off road use. So I've got a non off roader or I take the risk. Tried Adrian Flux & Lancaster - no use!
I want to replace the 5 x door and bonnet fixing screws on my 110 TDCi with stainless from Stig Fasteners. Question is: do all the door fixing screws go in to captive nuts or will it be a case of when undone the nuts fall in to a never to be found again place?

I don't know if LR have tweaked the suspension but it seems to absorb bumps and pot holes better.
T/C, ABS and A/C...

Diesel Engines | Defender
This is basically an engine ECU re-map plus re-setting the speed limiter to 91mph from 82mph. Increases BHP to 165 and torque to 443Nm.
Feedback from anyone who...
Problem sorted, the linkage needed adjusting (as some of you said). Great service from John Craddock, phoned at 2:00, took it in at 3:00, collected it at 4:30, charged 1 hour labour. Probably caused by lack of use. Cheers all for your comments.
Thanks for the suggestions, I'll try the one wheel off the deck test but I'm pretty sure it aint locking. I tried it on hard surface last night (slowly) in and out of lock, absolutely no difference to the "feel".
I took my 110 Defender TD5 off road (for the first time) on some pretty muddy hilly sections. On a couple of muddy rutted up-hill sections I got in to trouble, lost traction and had to reverse and have another go. I tried with and with out diff lock which seemed to make no difference. When I...
