It may be my wing has been replaced with a wing from a tdi200 model, does your td5 have any side vent ?

That could be so. The only side vent I have is the air intake on the drivers side 1999 Defender TD5 110

That's what is confusing me, I have no intake vent on the right hand side, so what isn't connected? Air intake ? Or does it not matter? Told you I was confused!!

Maybe a picture of your engine bay around the air filter housing might shed some light? 1999 Defender TD5 110

Are you sure it's a TD5 (serious question)? It looks like a Tdi.
Perhaps a TD5 engine has been retro-fitted to a Tdi vehicle, or the front end of a TD5 has been rebuilt with Tdi panels. If you can post a photo with the bonnet open, preferably showing the areas inside the wings, it may be possible to advise further. |

Yes same one I checked the vin and it is td5 I'm guessing it's had its wings changed in a previous life, will take photo Friday when back home, as I need to see that all is connected correctly.

Which rather begs the question where is the air intake for the engine?

Agreed, but I was thinking it mught be a pre-TD5 registered late, such as on cast from MoD. |
