I need to reseal the roof on my series 3 truck cab and although I’ve read various old posts I’m not sure what to use or where to seal. It’s mainly leaking through to the interior gutters and the rivets look ok. I was thinking of running mastic down the inside where the roof meets the gutter but...

Great stuff, will do. Thanks a lot

Hello everyone I’m fairly new to the Landy scene having only had my series 3 three weeks. I’m based in Crowborough, East Sussex and wondered if anyone in that area ever met up/ went green laneing? I’d love to see some other Landys and get ideas for mine.

so I’ve checked again this evening and latest findings show continuity at the wire from the switch to the resistor and the bulb holder to the resistor so that’s all good. The permanent 12v lead is fine so I have input power but I have no 12v at the terminal that supplies the resistor/plugs when...

Thanks buddy this is really helpful. I’ll check some bits, get some more pics tomorrow and come back to you. one thing that confuses me about what you’ve said is that if there is no volts at the resistor then am I correct in thinking that there can’t be volts at the plugs as the resistor is...

Presumably to test the plugs on the key i would have the positive probe on the top of the first plug, the negative earthed and have someone turn the key?

This is a picture of how the ballast resistor is wired. This is the first plug after the resistor. yes i fitted a 6v bulb. Thanks for your reply

Hi everyone I’m still trying to fault find as to why my series 3 heater plug light isn’t working and I’m now a bit confused and at the limit of my (limited) expertise. So far I have proven the plugs are good, and I have a new bulb in the dash but I don’t have volts at the ballast resistor. I’ve...

Hi everyone So I did some fault finding on the plugs this weekend and have found the following - plugs are fine (tested with the multimeter) - bulb is fine (new) - continuity at the bulb holder - resistance is good at the ballast resistor but I have no volts at the resistor or any cold start...

On closer inspection the light isn’t actually coming on at all. I’ve put a new bulb in and still nothing. It seems to start ok but from what I read it would still start in warm weather even without the plugs? (Am I wrong?) I think I’ll take the plugs out at the weekend and check Them with a...

Thanks a lot

Sorry to post another silly question but I need some help on this one. I’m going to do an oil change on my series 3 2.25d and have ordered some 15w40 oil as per what is listed in the manual. The oil has arrived today and it says on it that’s it’s for all modern diesel engines, not quite the same...

Makes sense. Thanks

Sorry if this is a stupid question but it’s one I can’t find the answer to any where. Does it matter which oil you use in the oil bath air filter? thanks

I think that’s what I’ll do. Thanks a lot

That’s what I was thinking. 30 seconds seems too long to me and wondering if I can do something to improve the performance

And when it goes off you can crank it?

Hi everyone I’m very new to the wonderful world of series land rovers having taken delivery and my very first drive on Saturday. I’m slowly finding my way round my series 3 2.25D and working out what to do to it. I was wondering how long it should take for the starting/glow light to come on...
