Many thanks. I will check all the hoses and clips. Fingers crossed it’s that easy to fix. Cheers.

Could really use some advice and guidance if possible. My Td5 recently had issues with the turbo (worn end float) and exhaust outlet manifold (warped). I replaced both, using a reconditioned Garrett Turbo from a well know remanufacturer. The turbo sounds loud when I drive, whistling / whining...

Just fitted a newly skimmed manifold (it previously looked like the photo above and the gasket was black around cyls 1 and 5). Not hearing the screaming noise anymore, touch wood. Thanks for the sage advice.

Fantastic. I had noticed that the studs for 1 and 5 were snapped and hadn’t been repaired. Also one stud was completely missing and replaced by a M8 1.25mm bolt! I put it down to the previous owner’s bodgery! I will definitely take your advice. Far too coincidental for the same problem to happen...

hi, the hazard light switch on my Td5 no longer illuminates when the side and headlights are on. Is it possible to replace the bulbs in these or is a new switch required?

Thanks. I suspect that given the amount of seals and gaskets that have been replaced I will probably end up buying a recon transfer box. I have read somewhere that you can get a different ratio box which is supposed to improve the drive (lower engine noise at 70mph). Has anyone any experience...

Thanks. Just finished with the jet wash. I will have another look tomorrow!

hi, I am a self confessed Land Rover addict from sunny Surrey. Whilst I am no certified spanner guru I am trying to learn more about my Td5 90 to save on garage costs. I have owned it for just over a year and christened it on Salisbury Plain. Like many Land Rovers, mine recently started marking...
