    Heavy duty clutch advice

    When you say 'move it back', does that mean without taking the box out all together?!

    Starter motor wiring.

    Hi Rick, I can't help with your question but wondered if you could describe what your problem was with your starter motor as I think I may have a problem with mine. Mine goes to turn over but doesn't actually start. It sort of 'clicks' as though it's trying to turn the engine over but...

    Heavy duty clutch advice

    Thanks for the replies folks. I had a look underneath today and... There is oil leaking from the gearbox, bell housing and transfer box! There has always been leaks underneath but they seem worse?! Am I right in thinking that the gear box needs to come out to get to the engine...

    Heavy duty clutch advice

    Evening all, I'm ready for a new clutch and not sure what to go for. My last one was a Borg & Beck and it's only lasted just over a year. I don't do any off roading and I certainly don't thrash her about as she's a 20 year old 200Tdi 110 CSW. So, what would folk recommend? I'm skint so...

    I'm not sure, I'll ask my brother in law but I reckon he will have done with having the box out.

    Loss of drive when carrying a lot of weight

    Looks black and enginey! I'll spray the underside with degreaser and give it a good wipe down and see what I can find out. Feel very out of my depth with this sort of stuff! As I mentioned before, my brother in law is a landy specialist but he moved 3 hours away earlier this year so it's a...

    Loss of drive when carrying a lot of weight

    Thanks again for all your help folks. Yes there is oil around the bell housing underneath. I assumed it was related to one of the seals on the transfer box? I can never remember which way round they are, is seal on the hand brake drum side the output seal? Because I reckon the one on the...

    Loss of drive when carrying a lot of weight

    Thanks for your responses. Changed the fuel and air filters about a year ago and oil + filter about 2 months ago. I've put a few bottles of different fuel cleaner in over the past 4 months to try and help! Do you folks change your air and fuel filters every 12 months?

    Cold landy? warm bum...

    If like mine, your landy is freezing and draughty, then I've found a solution! Well, it's not a solution but it really helps. I bought 2 heated seat covers in Aldi last week for a tenner each. They plug into the 12v socket and they work really quickly and get really warm! Just thought...

    Advice on speaker/amp systems in a Defender

    Thanks for the help folks. Those JBL speakers look nice and I'd not thought about a DAB in the landy but I'd like one as I only really listen to 6music!

    Fuel magnets - anyone use em?

    Morning, A mate of mine told me about fuel magnets that you can buy on Fleabay. Apparently you clip them on your fuel line and they can get you more mpg?! Has anyone tried them before? They're cheap enough but there are loads of different makes. J

    Advice on speaker/amp systems in a Defender

    Morning all, I wondered how many folk on here have bothered to upgrade their sound system in the landy? I fancy getting a sub and some decent speakers to replace the knackered old landy ones but don't really no much about it all. Has anyone installed and amp, sub and speakers before...

    Rear axle leaking oil!

    It's on the outside of the wheel. It comes from the inside of the rim and right out onto the tyres. This morning I've noticed it's clear now which means I'm leaking the new oil I used to top up the diff when I put the axle on!

    Rear axle leaking oil!

    Hi all, I recently swapped my rear axle as the diff in my old one was making some weird noises! Had the new axle on about 2 weeks and I've noticed, what looks like black oil on both my rear wheels. It looks as though it has leaked out at high speed due to the pattern of it. Any ideas...
