[b]1996 300 TDi CSW.[/b]

Well today I finally got myself organised and had a second door and ignition key cut using a local key cutting service - when I bought the vehicle it only came with one set ...

I'm sure that the Richard's chassis is first class - I bought a Marsland one for my 300 TDi and all is well.

I'm not sure if anyone will want them but I have the drivers and passengers side door cards in grey which I don't want as I'm starting to clear away a number of items which I don't need (moving house) ...

Pretty sure there is an instructional video on Youtube.

Sorry don't know about TD5's (I have a 300 TDi) but I used to work for Renault UK. Renaults as did many other vehicle manufacturers use a potentiometer to send a signal to the ECU to reflect throttle ...

You are right - when the pump is removed, there is an actuating rod held in the side of the cylinder head - the sj410 is different as the plunger on the pump has direct contact with the cam lobe on th ...

Could I ask you to go on *Bay and look at item No. 191195547761 - does your new pump look like this? If it does I'm a little mystified by what you have described in the paragraph below.

I think I'd do two things - with the new pump in your hand, make and secure the pipe connections to the pump but undo and pull off the inlet feed pipe at the carburettor - then operate the pump by han ...

Thanks guys for all your inputs and help - I now have the right side front hub assembly partially dismantled (stuck for the special socket which fits the caliper securing bolts but my mate will have o ...

Thanks Toseland I'll do what you say - just for the record it's disc brakes all round and the front calipers have four pistons per side.

I would appreciate some help in which direction to go on my 300 TDi CSW braking system. Firstly on this vehicle all the calipers, discs and pads were replaced together about 1200 miles ago - but the c ...

I think you need to bite the bullet and consider whether the water pump is circulating the coolant efficiently and also whether the radiator is able to do the same. I don't have my 410 anymore but I ...

Thanks for the reply - appreciated. A friend of mine came to have a look at it all today and he is very experienced on Defender's and Discovery's. He had not seen this thick plate before but in the ...

I'll try and do some pictures as suggested but someone I know has advised that 200 TDi's had different lower door seals compared with the new one I've been supplied with. Might be useful if someone o ...
