Driving home from work in the old 110 I hit a bumpy patch in the downhill stretch of road doing about 40mph and the steering wobbled around to the point where I slowed and almost pulled over to a stop. I carried on very carefully and everything seemed fine. Only had chance for a quick look but I...

Cheers for the replies guys. The urgency is gone as its now started but of course it needs fixing as these things tend to let you down when least convenient.

No sign on any drips. Rechareged battery has got it going but will continue to try and sort this.

My 200tdi usually starts first time however if its not been run for a few days it takes a little more turning over before it catches and then its fine. When I mentioned this to a mechanic he asked if I parked facing uphill and I told him I do and he said they usually start easier if left...

Great in summer but cold in winter unless you can perhaps knit a knob warmer? And who would'nt want one of those?

The sentence for your offence would run concurrently and would be shorter than the firearm offence hence not proceeding.

I think it is a resource issue; police officers numbers have been cut by 20% and officers are regularly sent to cover other areas for major incidents. When Theresa refers to "extra police " being deployed she really means we have robbed Peter to pay Paul and those extra officers here means...

Its not your location he wants to steal your car. Its as above , a well known scam. Pays via paypal, collects the car then tells paypal he did not get the car and they refund the money from your account.

That' extortionate! Yes fully take your point on better things to spend the money on. I wonder of you could adapt a radio bracket like the type defenders used to have before the dash got all fancy? somethig like this...

They are all still going and there's another landy garage been built right next door to Copley too though again its all new motors. The LR centre is almost exclusively series vehicles, nice but then they should be at over 20k each!

Not done one but I dont know if you know but there are a number of manufactured ones that may give you some ideas or inspiration?

I am quite able to use google and have experience of two of those three garages. The third, Copley , deals with brand new Land Rovers so not really have a lot of experience of tuning 200tdi s. But thanks for your input. My understanding is that as well as the pump mods there are things that can...

Looking for a garage with experience of tuning 200tdi s if anyone knows one? I have put in a boost pin but don't feel I am getting the best I could so wanted someone who knows the engine to take a look. I am in West Yorkshire. Any recommendations?

Whatever you decide make sure you use high temp glue or it will eventually fall off. I didn one with Evostick and it looked great for a few weeks but then gave up the ghost. You can buy the carpet stuff and glue from ebay etc and its called Veltrim. You will have seen it in mini buses and...

Its 30 years old and behind the radio is a bit of a birds nest I have found. I think what I have done is maybe move something when putting wires in as the but i did was fairly simple and is looking ok still. Perhaps Ive moved a wire that has pulled off a connector or some such thing. But yes...

The ongoing resto of my 110 continues; its not one of these off the road rebuild jobs but a repair and rejuvenate as I go along. Chassis needed some outriggers and a new middle cross member, springs and shockers replaced, new seats, carpet, steering joints, wheels and tyres and countless other...

I ve had both and when standard the TD5 is only marginally better. However the TD5 can be electronically remapped which makes a huge difference and puts it leaps ahead of a tweaked tdi. Reliability was never an issue for me with either .

Did it on my tdi and it was easy but no idea with a td5 sorry.

Well the main thing is for me that they must be safe for me and other road users. I don't want to be a pain for drivers coming the other way. The thing is I can buy a set of led spots for next to nothing and the proper headlamps from the well know makers are extortionately priced!

I now this has been done to death and I have read past posts but time moves on quickly and things change. Im looking at these: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/PAIR-LED-Headlights-BLACK-CRYSTAL-7-lights-Headlamps-for-Land-Rover-Defender/262946561575?hash=item3d38d61e27:g:wHcAAOSwkShY-dJW The price is...
