Thread: 2012 Defender drive failure 25,000ks

90, 110 or 130?

shall we take a punt on what it might be?

Ill guess in order, rear diff, LT230, front diff.

Good luck and make sure they look after you.

failed stub shaft between the gearbox and transfer case.

Almost certainly

I forgot about that one Pete, I think JC has seen a couple of these?

I think so. Quite a few reported in the UK aswell

Thanks. It's a 110.

I feel like we should run a book ;-)

Sounds like failed stub shaft is the odds on favourite, with rear diff, lt230 and front diff at slightly longer odds.

with diff locked I would`nt put money on front or rear diffs

Well diff locked rules out a drive-flange.
But it doesn't rule out 2 or more drive flanges.

My 2011 110 32000km has had a whole raft of "metal" parts in the gear box trans area replaced by the dealer. They will not tell me exactly but it was a
1. flange
2. spring
3. various seals
4. rear drive shafts
5. rear drive flages

and who knows what else that they are not telling me about.

They will fix it for sure and damage something else in the process

good luck
