Dixon bate are probably main choice on a defender for towing and they rate there ball at 3.5 tonnes. A stuck 110 using a kinetic rope can have 5 x that amount applied to it. The ball in question survived the rescue but you wouldn’t want to tow on the highway with it...

What can the courts do if the company at fault has already folded? If it’s a civil matter and it’s a limited company there’s nothing can be done.

Which is why I advised the op to use proper off road recovery points and not the tow bar like you did!!

I’ve bent a tow ball doing a snatch recovery

Use some proper off road recovery points, the small round eye is for on road towing and not upto the stresses a snatch recovery exerts. Also use a snatch rope for snatching as it has some stretch in it and uses stored kinetic energy to move the vehicle. A none kinetic strop is brutal for snatching.

Yeah 8 speed, stop start and add blue Makes a big difference on tax costs

I think the D4 can only store 4 pairings, if you haven’t already, you may need to delete the previous stored pairings then try to pair.

If you’ve fitted bigger than 16” wheels there are bigger brake upgrades available, which give much better stopping power

Road tax on my D4, which is add blue model is £320/ year

Yeah mines a sdv6, 8 speed box.

255bhp

My D4 is twin turbo

Only a light shower last night so no trouble

It’s permanent 4 wheel drive!! Not a good idea having odd sized wheels fitted

Used it to transport myself and fishing tackle to Evesham for a few days on the river Avon, as season starts 16th.

Your only supposed to prime tongue and groove before assembly

You turn the screen on with the iid tool.

Se has the info screen but not the 4x4 information data unless it’s been activated with iid or similar

Have you physically checked the steering angle sensor, as I believe they can work loose
