My TD5 is the same size, the earlier one is approx 15mm.

Air filter needs a bit of a clean while you're at it.

Fitted the clear pipe between filter and inj pump, when running there is no air in the pipe. When I switch off you can see diesel and air running back from the inj pump to the filter. What would this indicate? Also developed a slight misfire when you put a few revs on. EDIT: IGNORE THAT...

Going to try and get back on this today. Going to see if I can get a bit of clear pipe from filter to inj pump to make 100% there is no air. Then crack off injectors to see if that tells us anything. After that I guess we will have to send the pump and injectors away to be serviced. Pretty much...

Welcome to the forum.

If you mean put a bar under the tyre and there is movement in the wheel then most likely wheel bearings. To be honest a complete rear bush and bolt kit isn't expensive, so if it's all a bit tired change the lot of it. Since Christmas is on its way stick everything on you list to Santa

To me they are too expensive to buy on a whim and they are a lot harder to change on a Defender. You have the advantage of an access hole so if it does go wrong it's not so bad.

I think there are small barrels and larger ones which I think came along sometime with the TD5s. The hole in the handle obviously dictates what key barrel you need. Measure the head of the key barrel, on the outside of your handle and I will measure my TD5 if you get stuck.

200tdi 8mm inner from tank to lift pump and filter to inj pump. 6mm inner return to tank I do believe. Well, it is on ours anyway.

Take the flange off, remove the circlip and pull the shaft out (with the bearing). You might need a slide hammer to pull it out, I used a metal bar and a hammer to knock it out. I don't remember it being particularly difficult or tight to get out. Remove bearing from shaft, fit the new one to...

I think car drivers would be far more aware of what's happening on the road if they had ever riden a motorbike.

I thought that the pump was noisy when I bought my Defender. After a few years it is a bit quieter and still works. There is a access hole in the boot to change the pump anyway and the common opinion is to buy the expensive one.

I remember, shaft comes out with the bearing on it, remove the circlip and pull it out.

I am sure I have changed that bearing without dismantling the transfer box.

Are they indeed, how much rare and why?

If you notice in your photo and mine the relevant symbols being used are all highlighted in white, the "spare" ones are highlighted in black. Maybe that's the answer, if so you will then have to find out why/how it's illuminated.

Example below

I have a feeling it might be a spare warning light getting illuminated somehow. The dash warning light cluster was also used in other vehicles.

Do this, it should be easy to see if it has a cooler
