Hi all, I have a 300tdi 110, and after reading the many past threads here, I still cannot get my bloody fan off. I have the wrench to grip the nut, and I know I'm trying to undo it in the correct direction (standing in front of the car facing the engine, moving the wrench clockwise, the top...

A bit late but.... - Andrew

Another Canuck! Welcome...

HA701009, etc, should be a part of the VIN. Do a google search on the land rover VIN codes, compare your VIN to this one and it should be obvious. - Andrew

Hi all, Living in Belgium, I'm having a hard time sourcing some things locally. On Friday morning I will be driving from Dover to pick up an ebay'd Engels fridge on in London (Abbey Wood) then continuing up to Hull for around 6-7pm. I was hoping I could stop in to 1-2 places and pick up the...

Going once, going twice....

Need to catch up here... in the last week I changed the steering damper (amazing difference to steering) and replaced the front left wheel bearing. Going off now to bleed the brakes and top up the oil levels on the axels, diffs, gearbox, and transfer box. - Andrew

I'm planning a similar trip... roughly 12 months starting around Nov 2011. Don't have a route planned yet, still learning how to fix/drive the landy! If you're interesting in heading off together, drop me a line... either way it would be good to share info. - Andrew

'97 Defender 110 300tdi.... currently minus a hub assembly but that should be fixed by then (assuming I get off my arse this morning). - Andrew

I might be coming, as I'll be in York for the Bush Mechanics workshop on the 22nd and want to get in some off road experience... I've been asking people around here and it sounds like there really aren't any in Belgium. I've never done any off-roading before, but want/need experience. Would...

Exactly. After 30ml or so of oil came out when I was loosening those bolts I tightened it up again and went back to read the manuals (and this site) to figure out what I had done wrong. This time around I left those bolts in and clamped/disconnected/plugged the brake line, which means I'll...

Maybe I was unclear... I undid the bolts on the top of the caliper and the oil was coming out around the swivel bearing... on the inside of the wheel. - Andrew

I don't even understand the question... so guess not. - Andrew

I'll check both levels... something I've wanted to get to anyway. I got the hub assembly off in the garage this afternoon, seemed to go well... the 12 sided socket worked wonders. Tomorrow will bring it home and start the disassembly and cleaning in a nicer environment. I'm feeling pretty...

I've done it on other cars, but a long time ago... in my defence the bolts were kind of hidden so I didn't see them, if I had I would have recognized them as the right ones. We all start somewhere, right? I'm pretty confident that I'll know if I botched it up or not (with help from these...

Really? Whew.... was wondering how to figure that out. It's odd that I can't find the serial # though... will have to take another look. Thanks! - Andrew

Nope... Thanks for that! Time to start reading again... :) - Andrew

Post #3. - Andrew

The only identification on the gearbox that I could find was "hrc2641 bsk2". Google searches are not illuminating, only showing that some other people also have the same number on their gearboxes too. - Andrew

Hi, I was trying to replace a front wheel bearing today, and got stuck embarassingly soon. I couldn't figure out which bolts I had to remove to get the damn things off! My guess was the top two bolts where the brake line is secured, the same ones buster is showing in the fourth picture...
