Hi
Just wondering if anyone could tell me what RPM a Defender TD5 (2005 model) does at 100kph, please?

Hi brd. I've never taken much notice with
mine but I suspect as they have lower gearing than a Discovery, probably around 2200rpm.
Why?

From recollection, about 2700 on the tacho. I'll check tomorrow on the freeway and confirm. The final drive ratio is lower than the Disco, so higher revs are to be expected.

3600 in 4th ... and it wasn't real happy.
2800 in 5th
4500 governed max ... but I don't think I want to go there.. ;-)

measure your wheel diameter and your can do cals for each gear, provided you know the ratios.
