Well the latest is. A new gearbox arrived and has been installed along with the rear diff (this is the last time I let them fit a 2 pin diff). Twisted Evil This leaves the lack of power issue. As the drive train has been fixed they can get now on with sorting it. Land Rover has told them to run a side by side comparison with a 'good' Whistle 110 and report back.

I threw the toys out the pram yesterday big time. As a result an EGR valve was sourced from the forecourt to 'try it out on mine' apparently its sorted the problem. So I will be collecting The Red Dwarf later today.

My 110 had a rattle in 5th and 6th. They changed the gear box, however the new box thats done about 600 miles is now doing the same. FFS I am totally Censored off with this vehicle.

Yeah mine started to do it very quickly aswell, its now almost a year old though and 21.000 km ...

But its starting to bug me now cause its starting to rattle in other gears Evil or Very Mad

One other niggle i have aswell maybe someone else has it to, is that when its in idle theres a rumbling noise that comes up, when i put my foot on the exhaust its gone or when i very very gently touch my accelerator its gone aswell Rolling Eyes

My stealer said its probly the egr valve Rolling Eyes

U guys have any ideas cause i dont trust their ideas Twisted Evil
