    300tdi Defender not starting - battery?

    HI thanks for the reply! I dont have a multi meter or a battery charger - woefully unprepared! the battery is a 70AH / 630A which to me feels a bit on the weak side for a 110. The car i tried to jump it from was a skoda octavia so probably not enough to give it the juice it needed, but the...

    Painting underside of Defender?

    TOTALLY agree I would need to see at least 450 before I considered that filthy job, certainly wasn't a criticism of my local landy garage ( they are outstanding truth be told).

    Disco 2 Central Locking problem

    I checked the fuses under the bonet and X2 are blown but I am assuming unrelated - F4 (headlight washers) and f5 (cooling fans). Guessing that wouldnt have any impact on the central locking or indicators...
