how warm is your t case
« on: April 25, 2007, 20:42:54 »
Ive got a wine on my 200tdi 110 . only appears at about 60 65mph .

bearings arent bad ive recently changed on but I had a ook underneath tonight when i got home and the t case was really warm if not hot

I had just done 50miles mainly motorway at about 70mph


if some one gets a chance can they see after a run if there t case is a bit on the hot side, ive checked the oil and i had to top up with the usual drop but nothing major

thanks for that not having a defender for a long time, i cant remeber these things.

I will remove the front prop sunday to confirm the diff as i can dip the clutch and the noise goes so i suspect diff over wheel bearings.

Cheers again

Where do you think all the heat comes from through the seatbox. On mine before I fitted a RR handbrake you could get burnt on the heat.
