    AMC Head - compatible with 10P?

    As the advent says late, I’d assume it’s for the 15p engine. You could ring them to confirm.

    Dual inlet manifold - installation

    I fitted the turner engineering performance head to my 200 recently, it only adds 8-10hp but drive ability is much nicer with quicker pick up and stronger mid range.

    How to make the new Defender look more like the old one

    The new Defender also had to be a marketing success in USA which the old one wasn’t as that’s a major Land Rover market, the old Defender simply didn’t sell enough units even in Europe to be viable. Grenadier have tried going down that route and it will be interesting to see how many sales they...

    Defender L663 review !

    I agree with all of the above, which is why after putting many thousands of pounds into renovating my 200tdi , I have also have a new defender. Sometimes you need something that gets you where you want to go without rattling , that can integrate with your phone so sat nav works and is relaxing...

    Discovery 5 Alarm going off, losing coolant quickly and trying to find spare tyre

    Either D4orD5 can’t remember which has a known issue with one the bonnet catches sticking so allowing the bonnet to open slightly, this would be enough to trigger the alarm. I had it happen on one of mine but I change cars that often i can’t remember which model it was.

    Defender L663 review !

    Yeah I’ve seen the debate on the other forum. My thoughts on the grenadier are it’s too late to the party. If it was available a couple of years before the new defender was launched it may of been an option, but I have a 200tdi 90 if I want to rough it After driving new defender I don’t think...

    Defender L663 review !

    I’ve done close on 6000 miles since getting my 110. Got some bigger tyres with smaller rims on it, oh and I’ve fitted the lucky 8 winch mount. I prefer the discreet look of the winch compared to the plastic bulbar on land rovers

    A better Defender replacement than the new Defender?

    A friend of mine swapped his 300tdi 90 for the 3 door model, 23plate brand new, he said it’s the most frightening vehicle he’s been in, at 60mph on the motorway it was all over the place, he went back with it and it was checked out by dealer, outcome was that, that’s how they drive, and keep it...

    Turn off your comfort access in the settings menu, no codes to scan so no faraday pouch required. Land Rover has just upgraded the security on the defenders with a software upgrade.

    TD5 problems in the wet

    Wet weather could just be coincidence. When car will tick over but won’t accelerate when pedal pressed could be a faulty throttle position sensor

    Options for adding CDL - 2003 D2 V8 Auto

    I’ve swapped nose cone on a D2 diesel, easy enough to do approximately 2 hours with the box on the car. I think there’s instructions on Ashcroft Transmissions website.

    Disco 4 wheels

    You can fit 19” D3 wheels onto the D4, the D3 18’s won’t fit as the calipers on the rear are bigger on the D4.

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

    Should of said, biggest benefit upto now is the smoke that other than start up is no longer present.

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

    Early days yet but car is quieter at tick over and feels smoother on the road, seems to pick up better but it’s not making it a sports car. Maybe it’s a bit more refined now 😂
