My rear wash has packed in. (2000MY RR 4.0) Can't find a fuse that covers
it. The wiper still works but no sound or action from the rear washer
system. Anyone know what it might be?

Having run-out of fuel a few months ago (oops) I found that the low
fuel warning lamp wasn't working, I've since heard that many others
low fuel warning lights don't work, someone said that they are not
connected.

I know the likes of Steve Parker does a kit at just over ?200 but is there a
off the landrover shelf solution assuming I use Rangie manifolds? Will 90
stuff fit?

This is either simple or expensive.  My '85 RR with 4-speed ZF auto box

in a thread I've mislaid, someone, I think it was Llama David, had a price

oilway.  I'm a bit nervous about taking the rocker shaft off, as the
diagrams show little bits and pieces with the potential to ...

When changing the cambelt on a 200TDi (Discovery) is it advisable to also
change the tensioner and idler pulleys? Or is this just a 300TDi issue?
Thanks,

does anyone know were i could get a landrover light weight series iii vent
panel or top bulkhead panel from as they are rare as f**ck nowadays

OK I finally got the wheels of the Disco muddy after a month of ownership
and the very next time i started the engine after the very short stretch of
mud the srs light came on and has been on ever since.
Any ideas any body?

In my 200 Tdi engine project's turbo,the radial play in the compressor
shaft is roughly 10 thou. Is this normal, and absorbed by temperature
changes/oil pressure, or does it need new bearings ?
Thanks.

everyone seems to talk about clouds of smoke today, so I will add one
to this :)
When driving down a hill with the engine supporting the brakes, our
Defender 90 starts to exhaust smoke. Engine is a 2.5 td. Normal
