    Does the late TD5 Defender extreme have anti stall as does the Puma, when moving it around in the drive at home it seems to react in a similer manner. Ive not tried it off road as yet so any imfo would help.

    apparently the Td5 does have antistall Although I have heard not as refined as the Puma..

    not owning a td5 I'm only going on what I have read here
    Our Land Rover does not leak oil! it just marks its territory.......

    I don't have a TD5, or Puma, but I'm going to hazard a guess that the main improvement is due to the variable geometry/nozzle turbo on the Puma engine.

    Put a similar turbo on a TD5, then compare them - that would be interesting. I don't think they have been improving the engine technology as much as the turbo technology (IIRC the turbo on the V6 3.0 litre is newer technology/generation again).

    I have seen other threads/posts on AULRO where people have been expressing hope for the 2.7/3.0 litre V6 in the Defender replacement. IMHO the V6 is too expensive to manufacture and a similar displacement straight 4 with similar technology (common rail injection and variable geometry or 2 stage turbo), will give the performance sought (just not as smooth as a 6 cyl).

    We'd better not mention the Td5 clutch master cylinder issue or the dual mass flywheel or we'll scare him off both types

    i hope you dont either, or you will just loose all trust in the car, unfortunately lot of customers have with there pumas

    and yes we have people that have done 60k and virtually no props, but we have a lot of cars that just keep coming back,
