Clutch not disengaging. If it was working when parked up check the fluid level in the clutch mastercylinder. Assuming there is sufficient fluid and the clutch pedal feels normal, your clutch plate may have stuck to your flywheel. Try starting it in gear with the clutch depressed and the hand...

I would expect everything except the engine mounts to be the same. The TD5 mounts are massive compared with the 300tdi. If you can weld, welding on 300tdi mounts is probably the simplest answer, or find a rotten Discovery II and chuck a TD5 in it.

Assuming that this isn't you, you could email these guys, they had the same problem as you. http://album.sixappealwheel.org/index.php/Walts-Albums/Range-Rover-Commando-6x4/album07?page=4

So standard Range Rover master cylinder with a non-standard piston?

Is your current master cylinder a knackered correct one or is it the wrong one? If it is the correct one then you could measure the internal dimensions and compare it with standard parts. Alternatively, are Carmichael still in business? They may know if they changed the master cylinder. As the...

The MOT exemption rules aren't meant to be a strict and inflexable set of rules, they seem to be aimed at hotrods, eg Ford Pops with Jag rear axles and big V8's. If you look at it in this context the rules and guidannce seem to make more sense. If you replace the original engine with an engine...

I would give a second vote for a bulkhead delete kit. If your sleeping platform is too high then it will be mega-claustrophobic and a real pain to get in and out of. I think you may be pushing your luck in any case, I have a 110 which I use for camping and there is not a right lot of room in...

They're made in the Czech Republic, not the UK, so no Indian or Brummie accents. Perhaps they should be called the Přistát Rover Obránce.

As long as they don't call it the New Land Rover.

It's for the side lights on the civilian models, leave it disconnected if you are retaining the six way switch, connect it if you fit a civilian light switch.

White Orange Hazard warning feed (to switch)

All solid brown wires are permanent live, all the thick ones attach to the same starter solenoid terminal as the battery cable.

For a fuelling issue, the first thing I would do would be to replace the fuel filter and drain any water and crap from the fuel sedimenter. A new fuel filter doesn't cost much and is easy to change. It could be worth chucking a bottle of injector cleaner in the tank whilst you are at it. Just be...

Your engine is an early 2.5Di from a MK2 Transit, a 1985 model at a guess. The banana engine is the later variant of the same engine fitted in the smiley front Transits. You can confirm the age of the engine from the engine number which is stamped on a flange on the front passenger side of the...

You can get chirping sounds from propshaft U-J's if they are properly dried out and knackered.

Don't bother with an immobiliser on a Tdi Defender, they won't work, the engine electrics are too simple and easy to bypass. The only things I would consider is a disc lock that covers the whole steering wheel or a pedal lock that covers all the pedals. The downside with these is that you have a...

As said above, "twanging" noises are normal from the rear suspension during the extremes of axle articulation. If this is your only concern regarding your rear springs, leave well alone and save yourself a few quid.

There is a seal that is meant to go on the "gutter" at the rear of a Land Rover engine bay. Part number LR053843. It helps to reduce the bonnet rattling.

When cleaning or spraying the underside, I use two normal car ramps, but both on the same side, front and back.

Are you sure that it is bearing noise, contaminated drive belt, particularly with antifreeze can cause some particularly horrendous noises.
