  1. Mo - Thank you for getting back to me, it is much appreciated ! That is good room for thought ; I forgot to mention that I have also changed the MAF Sensor not 1000 miles ago and it made a slight difference but only for a few days - This may just be my imagination though !! Thanks for the advice and talk soon. Mark
  2. Hi there, Here we have a 2002 Defender TD5 with around 140'000 miles. She has never been a problem starting but recently on the first start up of the day she just turns over and won't start for around 30 seconds ; she will always start just after a prolonged period of time and it also helps if you push the throttle down around half way ! I have also attached a link to a video of how the truck sounds when you try to start her, if you guys need anything else please don't hesitate to let me know and I can get you more videos or details of the faults occurring - Lastly, the truck really doesn't like to go above 60 mph and seems to have gotten very sluggish whilst trying to get there, I know that its no race car but she seems to have lost her torque and power slightly. The video of the start up is on youtube and the link is ; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n19MptYfAEg Thanks for looking and of you have any idea at what is causing this please post the solution ! Also as soon as it's fixed I'll let you all know what it was ?Thanks for looking and kind regards, Mark
  3. Yeah think I might leave it!! My truck is my daily drive so cant afford to break anything!! If we did do it it would be on stone / hard core ground!!
  4. Hi, I have aLand rover Defender 110 TD5, a mate has a patrol and wants a tug of war against me, he has a LWB 4.2 straight 6 EFI patrol.....who will win?? On paper its : Defender = 90KW @ 4200rpm 300NM @ 1950rpm Patrol = 129KW @ 4000rpm 330NM @ 3200rpm IF I accept the challenge I need you to be completly and 100% confident that the Landy will win other wise I will have the mick taken all the time or worse still i'll break something!! Also check this out - - looks very even to me!!Its all in good faith though, we go off roading together and were good mates but we both always say that we each have better 4x4's but he said he wants to put it to rest that he has the best one.....and I kinda wanna say I have the best but dont want to if it'll loose!! Please help!! Regards Mark
