thanks buddy

please can i have part numbers for both door seal's and vent seals for my 2001 defender 90 td5 chassy no ending 1a608411 many thanks

thanks mate, i just thaught i had broken it trying to free it lmao, i have yet to road test her yet as i am waiting for new brakes, hope this stuck wastegate has sorted my landy out as she sould strugel real bad at going 70mph on moterways, im not even going to mention what its like at 50 going up hills lol. if still no top end power im gana have to go get my fuel pressure and stuff checked. thanks everyone for all you help and advice muych appriciated

thanks very much for the pic it helpd alot, i think i have borken my lever on the turbo wastegate when i was trying to free it, when i ditach the rod the lever moves very easly and feels sloppy, is this normal or is it nackerd? hears a vidio clip of me wigeling it

so the The wastegate is inside the turbine housing omg i feel so stupid i was looking thro the turbine with a torch and couldnot see movement, i only thaught there was a problem because when i freed the rod and lever as it was seezed i had to disconect the rod from the lever and free the sepretly and when the lever on the turbo came free it felt very lose and sloppy as if i broke it on the inside? im just wundering if this is normal, the rod however was stuck too so i just used some mole grips and wd40 an wigeld it to it came free.

thanks for the heads up mate but i forgot to say befor that the pump aint making any funny noises i just get the whrring noise now, i only got strange noises a cupple of times after changing the fuel pressure reg, ((can the waste gate be seen open when disconecting the rod and moving the lever on turbo back and forth because myn is not opening at all or is this normal and it does not open unto driving to pressure gets high))??

so i should see the wastegate opening when moving when i move the arm/lever on turbo back and forth? or does it not open unto the pressure builds up? im just trying to rule this out befor i go down the route of getting pressure tests done and looking at the fuel pump as i have only coverd 43000 miles surley the pump should be ok..

i think i know what you mean so i have disconected the rod that conects to the arm on the turbo after lots of wd 40 and brute force the arm/lever on the turbo moves freeley but it feels a little sloopy and i can not see the wastegate opening when i move the arm back and forth..... should the wastegate be opening?? as for the rod this too felt stuck so a got a pare of mole grips and moved it in and out till it moved freely, after a lot of fiddeling trying the get the rod conected back to the arm on the turbo with out making it bigger, i have got it all back together now and still no power when i get to 60/70mph could this be because a could not see the wastegate opening??

also gana get this check'd asap as i somtimes get a strange noise from the fule pump just befor i start her up

but shudnt the wastegate open when you move the little arm?

thanks for the help guys, i have checked my turbo wastegate and altho the little arm was seased i sprayd lots of wd40 on it and got it moving again but it still does not open the wastegate or does the wastegate remain closed all the time unto the preshure builds up?? as for the maf i tryd unpluging it and drove around for a bit and i noticed that made it worse and would not go over 60mph does that mean anything??

hi guys my 2001 defender 90 will not go over 70 mph, it starts up fine run's smoothly and so but i just carnt seem to get over 70 mph its as if it's losing power between 60-70 mph, i have checked for fuel/air leaks found out that my fuel pressure regulator was leaking fuel so had it changed today but she still runes the same so obviously this was not the problem, any help would be much appreciated

thanks mate i will keep this in minde whn i eventualy buy some plates

only thing thats putting me off is they are only 2 mill thick i emaild him and asked as it does not say in the discription, but on the pluss side 2 mill will be much easyer to roll over the edge bit???

i rely just want the wing tops/ sills and mabi the corners will not use any of the other parts, but there tempting to bid soo cheap lol
