    How noisey is your Defender and did sound proofing make a difference

    I have a noisey 1993 defender CSW 200 tdi. I took out the front carpeting but left in the tunnel carpet. There is no carpet in the second row seat area either. I'm thinking of getting the beast sound dampened and wondered what others noise levels are. My Defender registers about 89 - 90 db...

    Defender 200TDI dis stick tube replacement

    Thanks. The old olive came out with the old tube. it was sliding off though. I flared the tube and it stays on fine now. I spoke to a landie shop and they said it doesn't screw down flush. Just screw it till its tight and then check for leeks after I've driven around a bit

    Thanks for that. I'll try and have a look tonight. The job doesn't seem to be quite as daunting as I first thought. Well as long as its the front bearing.

    Engine rattle

    Morning All, I just had my Defender 200TDI 110 put through its MOT and it came back with advisory on the Universal Joint on my prop-shaft. Having had a look myself the rear prop-shaft is solid with no play what so ever. The front prop-shaft seems to have no play at the universal joints but...

    90 td5 as my everyday car ? Am I crazy?

    I use my 1993 Defender CSW as my everyday car. I'm probably doing a couple of hundred miles a week. I love it. Yes it's a bit thirsty, yes it's a tad noise, No I wouldn't change it for the world. I had been wanting a Defender for years but just put up with crap cheap second hand cars. They...
