    Fair price

    Hi all,
    I have just inspected a 99 Defender wagon. Body in great condition, just a couple of minor fixits.
    My question is it seems to have a oil leak from the tranfer case and 1 from the rear drivers side of engine. It was hard to see where it was exactly coming from. Are these oil leaks major work to fix.
    Also air-con has packed it in. Has been re-gassed and hoses replaced recently but still isnt working. What would be a fair price to have replaced in the worst case situation.
    They are asking $20500 for it. It has 171000kms on the clock.
    Any advice would be great.

    Mark..

    Are you sure the leak from the rear drivers side of the engine is an oil leak? A common problem with a Td5 of that age is a fuel leak from the Fuel pressure regulator - might be worth checking.

    Do the oil pump bolt before you do anything else.
