If you're lucky you may be able to careful free the trim from around the sunroof and stick your head between the roof and the drooping lining with a torch held between your teeth and see if the problem's there. What you really don't want to find is that you replace or repair one of them, put...

Agree with all about sunroof drains but suggest you may find that where the hoses fit on to them will have cracked so even clear hoses won't help.

Sorry, I'm missing something. Which gearbox, engine, etc.? I find if you can get past the officious secretary's to Dave himself then Ashcroft's are of some use (except the prices). However I generally get frustrated and do the refurb myself. Main problem is the fabrication on the tooling to...

Just spoke to better half... you're right it's electronic, but it's still a steering lock which engages uses the solenoid you've been looking at. Impression seems to be that the plunger sticks and doesn't retract when it receives power. Better half used to strip plastic trim away to get at...

Do L322's have such things as old fashioned steering locks? If so, have you tried waggling the wheel whilst trying to turn the key?

Just dug out the following from my (non-exhaustive) list of bookmarks... hope it may help you somehow: https://www.landroverworkshop.com/electrics/defender-1999my/anti-lock-braking-system-abs-td5

I could be massively wrong (and if so apologies for wasting your time), but I seem to remember reading something somewhere when I was fighting my Disco 2's three amigos that the voltage supplied by the ECU to the modulator isn't necessarily 12v... have you checked whether it's meant to be 9v...

Thanks Marmaduke, how nice of Paddocks to try and be so helpful! Trying to avoid breakers currently as don't really want to pay for a full engine especially if there's any suspicion of the normal water loss issues. Would just be nice to "help" someone clear some space in their garage by...

Okay, no worries. If you want to arrange for carriage then I'm happy to have them ready to be picked up.

Thanks. No problem with that, just be good if it was a bit more realistic a way of stopping people from flogging rubbish. Surprised there's the need as fleabay is so easily accessible to anyone who wants to get rid of accumulated junk. However if anyone wants any assorted tat then quite happy to...

Okay, thanks. Will go for new ones as don't fancy another one go when under load! Thanks for checking though.

Interesting. If you ever need a Nanocom and are nearby, let me know. Happy to help wherever possible.

Yes, it could be the horn! (Sorry, couldn't resist). Seriously, check the earth from the horn to the bodywork.

As has already been mentioned, a well designed exhaust works on a scavenging effect as the pulses from each cylinder work through. What seems to be missing is the importance of how long the primary pipes are and in what order they combine otherwise the cylinders can interfere with each other...

Four speed auto? Very nice. Tempted to put an auto in mine but better half thinks auto's are worse than little white VW Up's and the like! So are you using the Disco's inbuilt ECU for the ignition system or are you running a dizzy on your 3.9?

Good article but have always wondered about the sense of viscosity ratings. At cold it obviously makes a difference, but once the engine is up to temperature surely the viscosity also needs to alter in order to provide suitable protection. After all, the majority of an engine's run time is spent...

That's why I'm doing it. PS Agree with a 90 definitely not being a Defender, but a Discovery 2 3.9??!!

Have to try! Thanks. Nice to be welcomed but do I have to be lazy to be on lz?!

Have them all but wrong side! Pity LR didn't just mirror image things occasionally! Good luck.

I searched around for these a while back and found you had to buy the complete fog light, you couldn't just get the glass. Might be wrong, but did spend some time asking around. I've got a spare RH light that might be able to post if that's the one you're looking for?
