Thread: New 2007 Defender pics from MT.Gambier show.

Hi All,

Here are some pics of the 2007 Defender from todays MTGambier Show
















ECU behind engine



Under driver seat compartment. Good spot for an air compressor or car PC









Anti-roll bar here...


... and here


Rear seats mounting point



Front passenger floor. See the heater outlet lower the speaker and plastic cover with 2 screws (might be fuses there)


Hand Break drum position lower chassis



Battery breather





Missing bolt crossmember-gearbox or special future?


Engine sump.



Engine sump front view.



That's interesting! DIY mounting tapped holes here...


... and here


Some sort of plug on top of the TC






Cheers,
Ruslan

Very comprehensive set of pics there

I did, not like a sofa but seems better than before. Personally I prefer sofa style without any pre-molded corrugations for back side profile where you can make you own deeps

Not real impressive about the cross member bolt.....

How are the comfort levels?

Great report by the way!

Sorry for pics/colours quality, yes, it is Stornoway Gray.


Here is some more info




Pitty, no low rev pulling power compare to remapped TD5, some correction/remapping required...




By default a selector positioned between 3rd and 4th





I do not have AC button picture (lower that control panel), in short words AC starts working after pushing that button even if speed switch in position "0". One of advantages of new ventilation system you can select now (like in most other cars) to use cabin air to circulate/cool down.






That tweater(s) helps to get an idea what is on a radio while doing highway driving.

Other thing, I think very important, all doors are still, fitted better than before and opening/closing procedure much easier now. What worries me is rust can go easier too.
