On my D1 300 tdi there is a pressure sensor on the aircon pipe which runs fairly close to where you would have been fiddling Its a 2 wire I think the aircon system - probably just a bunch of relay's in series - needs a couple of inputs for all the relays to say yes and feed power to the...

It's just an intercooler - your existing hoses etc all attach as per normal vgt is the ultimate answer though

People say putting a 63 mm exhausts on is also a damn good move - also removing the centre or first silencer box My one buddy did this mod and the exhaust drone was horrible - but it did fly though

It's a sa made one but probably a copy of the cirrus one - they made 2 bigger versions - mine is the smaller of the two and slots straight in - I think the bigger one just needs the steel down plate to be bent straight It probably makes sense to fit the biggest one first as the diff in price...

on my 300 tdi i fitted a bigger intercooler - slots straight in with no mods - and that has proven to be the single best mod I have done lower egt's by a good 50 deg and motor just feels to breath a lot easier

So from my post earlier re the hole in the fork possible - I went thru the replacing both master and slave cylinder rubber seals first before I saw it was the clutch fork hole problem Several times on and off on the master as it's a difficult / tight fit After using the same "new" seal kit on...

Is the clutch not allowing you to select gears sometimes. Here in saffa land the clutch fork suffers from the pivot pin pushing through. I had to do mine recently and by the looks of it a bulge could be created before it actually pushes through on the pivot point and that would change the actual...

Never heard something like that before - but - your aircon compressor clutch is an elctro magnet thingy Follow the two wires back from the aircon belt and in about 6 inches or so you will find a plug - disconnect it and c what happens

I measure mine using an adapted brass plug on the top bleed/fill hole on the thermostat housing

In Saffa land we had the last of the D1's with a manual box and edc - not many but I nearly bought one when I got mine in 2003

The two are in no way's connected All have flywheel's

The sock drawer of the God's - shirley they also have lot's of single odd sock's

That 60 to 110 in second's is pretty much physically impossible Given that figures are quoted it's an aftermarket fitment gauge my 2c

My disco 300 doesn't have a cat

Having said that - I had a new mechy that I thought was good do a cam belt change - and while you there flush radiator and new hoses etc Turns out he didn't put the rubber linings on both sides and bottom of the radiator so nice cool African air was just spilling out the sides instead of going...

A laser temp gauge gun is cheap I would check temp across the entire radiator - while motor is running and hot - In my Saffa country its called a "tropics" mod - where 80 or 90 %blockage is put in the radiator side tank - closest to the intercooler - to force water to travel thru the whole...

I run a temp gauge on my 300 tdi with the sensor in the top bung on the thermostat housing The D1 dash temp gauge doesn't move a mm before 106 C and at 110 C is pretty much near the red

On my friends 300 tdi defender we purposefully linked the front diff and trf box and g/box breathers to after the filter Alas he no longer has the vehicle - and we used thin tubing, attached the whole lot together using the bulkhead as a securing point That's about as much as I can add

Is it before or after the air filter ?

Well I will go with one of the gbox mounts - 50 p in my currency is about 12 beers so too rich of a bet for me although with clutch replaced you would think a bad mounting would have been seen - although same for the rear uj
