  7. We had a X reg freelancer TD4 with one as STD, tucked away in the n/side wheel arch, ours just came on when the ambient temp was low enough, but yes there is a dealer option to have it on a pre timer or a remote, but dunno how much that option was
  8. Hi all, The time has come to replace the slipping clutch on my TD5 90, I ( as in the garage) willmalso be replacing the flywheel as matter of course, my question is --- shal I do like for like ie another dual mass jobby, or I have been offered a solid type instead, they have fitted one to a similar truck and noticed no different in feeling or complications since, my feelings are-- the STD dual mass one has been ok for 108k along with the clutch so I should stick with that type, But I'm also thinking a solid one can't really go wrong or wear as much as in bushes etc, whatsyabthoughts please ??? P.s money wise is pretty much the same foreither option
  9. Also a good sharp tap on the casing can help to shift um also,
  10. My brushes stuck on mine on Salisbury plain, so limped home, and whilst still running I jet washed it for about fifteen minutes solid, then with a big schreech as the charging kicked in off she went again :0) I didn't put any oil or anything either, that was over a year ago, good luck
  11. Good evening all, I have a 51 reg 90 CSW with I think the STD poor headlights, what can I use to brighten things up ? For off road stuff I have four 9" HID on the roof that do the job more than fine, but I'm after better everyday lighting please , I have fitted some new crystal lamp units but don't really cut the mustard , So what can we recommend then please ?? Mant thanks in advance
  12. Hi all, I need to change the rear diff oil seal on a 300 tdi disco, am I right unthinking the flange is tricky to get off ? A puller or special tool maybe required ) done loads on defenders but not disco, many thanks
  13. Good afternoon all, on behalf of a driver at work I'm looking for some advice please ? The vehicle is a 300 tdi gap import auto box on a P reg, In short the speedo has stopped, apparently it intermittantly cut out a few weeks ago on a run but has been ok ( up until yesterday) all other gauges are ok, looking through the book of lies I understand it has a sender of the transfer box and no speedo cable as such ? Just wondering to change the sender or get a new speedo cluster jobby ? Would be a shame to just change the speedo as it's a really low mileage car and is being sold in march, any clues or tests, tips please ?? Looks "easy enough " to change the sender ?.. Cheers for now , Richard
  14. May I also thank nick boy for producing some of the best "off road" videos I have watched for a very long time, A worthy view for anyone I say ;0) Good crimbo pressy also ?
  15. And apart from the lower brackets that are welded to the chassis, its completely removeable with no damage to trim or bodywork,
  16. Thanks for the comments, Im dead happy with it, Yes the top triangle bit of mesh is bolted in for that exact reason ,
  17. Thought I would share a few pics of my new roll cage My spec was ... 1. Dog guard 2. Internal Roll cage 3. No cutting of bodywork or interior trim (not sure if I'm allowed to advertise on here the company who did the work for me but if you wish to know then pm me)
