Firstly, no check engine light. So I'm probably not in a position to get error codes read.

Unfortunately I've got no advice to offer regarding your question, but as a fellow Brit currently living in Italy, I just thought I'd wish you the best with it all. |

It looks like it was due to a recent gearbox repair (found evidence in service history book), the brass collar for the output shaft was broken in pieces on the bottom of the bell housing. |

Thanks Peter. I've quietly considered one of the last Defenders, hence the question.
For now, I really enjoy my Td5, but am having some issues (which is another thread)... |

Sorry to hijack a bit, but Birdy, what you said about regretting swapping your Td5 caught my interest. Can I ask you why? |

I have to say that I'm jealous of your black number plate, it's so low-key compared to the massive reflective things that we're obliged to wear.
I've got an ancient bike, and they allow that to ha ... |

An addition,
The sensor was fitted, the Landie started up and revved, and the check engine light came straight back on. The workshop have diagnosed this as being caused by the flywheel, i.e. it is ... |

Info for you guys who tried to help with analysing my problem, the ECU code identified the problem as the crank position sensor. So I'm hoping that's the end of the silly issues, for a while at least. |
