98' TD5

Hi, I've searched the site & can't find any discussions on HGS... probably a reason for that! My garage (independent LR specialist) says he thinks HG has gone. It's been a long road to this point with many parts being replaced to resolve issue. Radiator connector hose split a couple of days ago...

Thanks

Hi, has anyone bought one of these racks? If so are they any good. Mild steel, zinc primed & powder coated. I'm looking at around £500 for a slim line one for my 110. Thanks.

Has anyone had experience of using the injector loom sold by Twinwoods that claims to stop oil creep down the loom?

98' TD5 2.5

Thanks Tottot.. Both filters replaced a few months ago. 98' td5....so ECU under the seat! One other gremlin I have noticed is the glow lamp light staying on longer even when starting warm engine.

So just when the old girl had been running well for a while..... ......she's started reving when idling....then of course because it's a defender it'll stop!.....then start....then stop.....drove from cold this morning 5mins to garden centre fine. Started up leaving said garden centre and revs...

Thats really good straight forward knowledge thank you. Over the last year Ive had the radiator, inter cooler, expansion tank/cap and recently the fuel cooler replaced - second hand one as the gasket trick didn't work. The engine has been pressure tested with inconclusive results! Oil is good...

Thanks Cliffbase. Rust coloured pooling on top of the casting. There is a hole in the middle of the casting that someone in the know said it may be coming up through there? Coolant in tank is clear.

98' TD5 110 100k on the clock.

Apologies if this has been covered. My ongoing mission to stop coolant disappearing has now turned to the water pump after replacing the fuel cooler. I've noticed rust coloured coolant on top up the water pump. Does this suggest it's failing & are they quite straight forward to replace? Thankyou

Hello, will a later square type cooler replace my cylinder cooler on 98' 110 td5 defender? Thankyou

Marjon!

Thanks Marion!....yes it's just trusting you've got enough to get home! I think I'll be investing in a 5l can!

Yes I get that. I'm not interested in the economy. It's a work vehicle & I live in Cornwall. Trailer occasionally. I could make a full tank go around two weeks before the prices went up!
