Hmmm i need the whole panel to go in due to the rot. I think my windscreen panel has the ability to fold so hoping this would help the garage.

Sealing between the windscreen frame and the roof?

Did you ever sort this? I have the same job to do! -
Hello 1992 Defender (MOD) ive purchased two vent repair panels due to rot. Does the window (windscreen) and panel have to be removed in order to fit these? anyone got any pics of repairs being carried out? Thanks
-
Yep def Cam cream
-
Finally got around to sorting this (I have 2 classics so always lots to do). New rubber o ring and leak all sorted. The thread gap was irrelevant, the o ring that was in place originally was too thin and small, guessing the garage didn’t have the correct size to hand. New correct size o ring and leak sorted. Thanks
-
Yep going to check these out.

Land Rover Defender 1992 ex MOD The hub cap cover came off my front wheel today and left a lot of grease on the wheel. Im going to create an emergency hub cover but How and where do I replace the lost grease? thanks
-
All bought on eBay. Canvas Tarpaulin was £36 and the poles (adjustable tent poles) were £9. All good quality stuff too for a change.

Made a rear door card cooking area. Not quite in keeping with the standard military Defender but good for a brew and a fry up. Made up my own awning for 50 pounds, it’s pretty versatile and can go on either side or the rear, can be extended easily as well.

Bought some Wynns rad flush. I’ll reverse flush with a hose first then give this a go. Might change th3 thermostat as well just for good measure.
-
Are you still in Dubai? If so then yours is probably doing ok in that heat.
-
Nope no rad muff
-
Hmm it didn't leap up to the red but did rise up to it, up the very steep long hill. It settled down a bit after the hill but was still nearing the last portion of the white, albeit still in the white. I don't have much faith in the gauges to be honest but a rad flush, reverse hose of it would make sense.

It's a 2.5n/a when we had the hottest day in May I watched the temperature lift towards the red fairly quickly. I was motorway driving and up a steep long hill. Although it never reached the red I thought I would fit a fan for peace of mind.

Hello 1992 ex MOD Defender 90 any ideas what's the biggest aux cooling fan I can bolt on to the inside of the radiator, between the Rad and the cowling. Thanks

How much are they and do they fit a 2.5n/a? -
Thanks I’ll have a look

Ex MOD Defender on a 1992 plate I have blade fuses in the fuse box. Any ideas which fuse is for the heater switch? thanks
-
Fixed! Someone (not me) put the wire into the wrong connector on another junction box. All fixed now. Many thanks for the help, particularly the wiring diagram.
-
Great thanks. Run out of light now but I’ll try this at the weekend. Cheers mate.
-
Straight to the guage direct from sensor? I have a light green wire and a dark green (that splits into 2 behind the dash) into the guage from behind. stupid question but which wire do I take out for the direct wire to go in. Thanks
-
Yes the temperature guage is working fine. Is it a straight run for the new wire or into a junctions?
-
Checked all the above. Earth looks good. No rise in gauge when earthing sensor wire on vehicle body.
-
Without getting ahead of myself, what’s step 2?
-
Thanks I’ll check the Earth.
