It sounds like finding a reliable mechanic for your 1988 3.5L V8 Defender is challenging. You may want to look for a Land Rover specialist or a classic 4x4 mechanic in the Norfolk area. Try asking on Land Rover forums or local 4x4 clubs for recommendations. You could also look for a mobile...

Is there any other oil, beside Zf Lifeguard Fluid 8, you can suggest me? I've seen many that seem suitable for our Jag, but would like to know what you think

Given how Land Rovers depreciate and my intention not to keep the vehicle for more than three years, I would appreciate your insights on my reasoning. If I choose to finance the vehicle, there's a significant risk that I could end up owing more than it's worth when it's time to sell, especially...

All of the sudden both key fobs stopped working. any suggestions? Is there a fuse that controls it? Both key fobs show the little red light flasshing when a button is pushed so I do not think it is the battery. everything in the truck seems to be working fine. I did have a little rain get into...

I am selling my Getz to a work colleage as soon as it passes its MoT test which is booked for Saturday coming. I had the car checked over and all it needs for the test is two tyres on the front. The cheapest new tyres I have found fitted are £36 each (£72 for pair). However there is a plce...

Some clean air zones were cancelled and some went ahead, such as Bradford. Will those cancelled clean air zones be brought back with the help of bayareafastrak, it would be a bizarre situation if some areas have them and some not, although perhaps London is a case on its own. Can these schemes...

Checked the oil yesterday, she's got 5200 on the clock now, and has had one oil change at 1500. OLM indicates it has 56% remaining and the oil level needed about 1/2 - 2/3 of a qt. Is everybody else seeing similar oil consumption? Motor was hot, and had been shut down for 5 minutes. I'm a daily...

my fuel tank has fallen prey to rust at its lowest point. It is leaking, not a lot, but I know its there and will only get worse. I am using Ethanolmate now, but the damage was done in the previous ownership. Is there any patent cure for this, some additive to pour in, like a petrol tank version...

I have started to notice oil on my garage floor. It seems like a few drips everynight. Oil is coming dripping out near the passenger side front tire. I don't have ramps or anything so it is hard for me to see under the car but it looks like there is a ribbed (about 1/2") hose that sort of hangs...

My cars first service (2 year) is approaching fast. Car has done ~9000 miles in its 2 years life. Any guidance on what to expect from LR dealer service would be appreciated .. especially the price. I live in a rather costly part of the country (just N of London), so may be willing to travel and...

Hi all, I have just purchased a CLA 220 Diesel with pretty much every option apart from the panoramic roof. I work most days so i only drive it occasionally, but when i do it is such a treat. Last night on my way home from a meal out with my wife i stupidly put petrol in it. £50 pounds worth to...

Looking at my bathtub, I think it needs resurfacing. Water gets blocked because of which there are lot of stains. Is there a way I can do it by myself? Or I should seek for expert's help?
