    New head noisey tappets

    Thanks for that, had the tappets checked this morning and the gaps were too big, problem sorted.......now lol, the engines running a bit lumpy. the revs raise and drop on tickover, at slow speeds like when turning or aproaching a junction the engines stalled a few times but starts straight away...

    Strange noise - UJ gone?

    Had a similar vibration and buzzing noise that apeared at 40mphish upwards a while ago, the faster i went the worse it got, when driving at slower speeds there was no noise or vibration. I was 100% sure it was the front prop ujs, im sure there was a guide on how to change them on here somewhere...

    Re:Weird noise...still need help!

    Transfer box was dry as a bone:eek: filled her up and feels ok on a quick spin round the block. I need a fairly long straight road to get her up to 50/60 mph so ill do another road test tonight cos i've got a few other things to do. I checked front and back diff oil, they were full but the oil...

    Re:Weird noise...still need help!

    Still not so sure, I bought this 90 six years ago, so I know the vehicle and how it runs. its a 1994, 2.5 petrol, had documented 32000 miles on the clock and i've only put another 13000 on it. When I first got it, I put on a 2" Bearmach lift, caster corection arms, full set of polybushes and a...

    Re:Weird noise...still need help!

    Thanks for that. I'll change the oils anyway, only as to eliminate low fluid levels in the diff and transfer box. My way of thinking on this is I can hear the cogs moving inside when I rock the flanges left to right, if the oil levels are correct, surely everything should be nicely lubed up...

    Re:Weird noise...still need help!

    There was hardly any play up and down but when I rocked the transfer flange left to right I could hear the cogs inside moving, the same with the diff. Think I should check the transfer and diff fluid levels before changing anything else, I havent done this before and am not sure what oils go in...

    Re:Weird noise...still need help!

    Propshaft looked real good, no problems with the splines. To be honest even tho I changed the uj's I dont really think they needed changing but I did em anyway just in case. when I had the prop off, I turned the diff and transfer box flanges and could hear movement inside both! Could it just be...

    Re:Weird noise...still need help!

    Hi all, I've changed all me uj's but theres still a grumbling noise when i take my foot off the accelerator at 50-60mph which gets worse if you lightly put your foot back on again, I can also feel a light vibration in the drivers side floor. Theres also a clunk and pause in drive when changing...

    Weird sounds

    Yep, it was the uj's. I've changed one to see how it goes, still got a little vibration but nothing like before so i'll get back under and change the others. Thanks for the advise and thanks for the link Sean, it made everything sooo much easier.

    Weird sounds

    Thanks for the replies. On further inspection tonight, I've rotated both the propshafts by hand and could hear noise coming from what sounded like the gear box. Should I be able to rotate them? There was a good quarter turn play in both propshafts. Plus if I have unknowingly driven with the...

    Weird sounds

    Hi All I have a landrover 90, 2.5 litre petrol. Last week I noticed a vibration whilst driving between 40-50mph. I found I had 7 loose but seized propshaft bolts, 3 in the front prop and 4 in the rear, so I changed them and everything seemed fine. This evening, driving between 30-40mph there...
