Watching with interest. Everything is fine on mine until it gets hot. Then reverse can become right pig…… and first crunchy. Was wondering if the clutch is dragging? I do have the lof slave and the bite point is low. Going to swap the slave out and see if it makes a difference.


Maybe worth some fresh oil ?


It’s had 3 changes in the last 3 months Rolling Eyes
Oem slave arrived today, fingers crossed a job for the weekend

Well....The return of the clutch issues.
Yesterday while at Ty Croes race circuit, having been there all day for the rally, came to go home and thought the clutch does not feel right.

Got onto level ground and checked the clutch fluid - master cylinder empty Sad
I went on the scrounge from some of the service crews to see if anyone had some spare - they did.

Topped up the fluid and the clutch seemed better.

This time I think its time to swap the clutch slave cylinder 1999 Defender TD5 110
