Hi guys, new member here and looking forward to being part of the community now im an owner

Just wanted some advice, im going to get a timing belt done on it asap as it is due, i guess as standard get the water pump changed, also was it this model where the casing would break ? if so ill get that changed, if you could let me know what bits i would need to get done at same time that would be great.

its an 2007 RRS SE 86k on the clock.

Also another problem ive noticed, when i put a dvd in the player in glove box, no picture/sound gets sent back to the screens, necrox is the make of the screens, could it be shorting out somewhere?

Kind regards

kyle

Without question, have the oil pump replaced

Noted, thanks mate

Hopefully don't need to replace the WP

I'll have them check it I've always had them done at same time as belt, is it a to do on rrs?

Takes an hour. Only driven by the aux belt, so not a major job to replace

Don't you have to remove the whole body to do the timing belts? 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
2018 Melting Silver Mini Countryman PHEV - soon to be replaced
2015MY Corris Grey SDv6 HSE Dynamic, the best car I have ever owned, totally reliable only a cou0le of rattles in 3 years, now no longer in my care
Also in my garage is a 1996 TDi300 Defender 90 County HT made into a fake CSW

i believe the timing belt is at the front behind the auxiliary belt.

Your belts should have been done 3 years ago. 105000 miles or 7 years. Whichever comes soonest.
