    What have you done to your Freelander today

    Number 2 injector, leak off lines and "T" connectors, MAF meter, EGR bypass, Silicone hoses, glow plugs, crank case breather to BMW oil separator, four tyres, air filter, rear exhaust box, license plates, drums brushed and painted, radio (previous owner jammed three CDs into a single CD player)...

    Manual transfer box

    Searched the threads and nothing, but please do not flame without consideration. I "semi" love my freelander (for want of cheaper petrol to burn the damn thing) and my MRS will not consider a defender or disco due to mpg and comfort. Having said thing, after renewing the injector leak off...

    rigid pipe between MAF housing and engine

    Ooops, not that way. Do you know anyone who can pick up? If not, could post if you pay charges. I do not know if smoke on start up is MAF. Have you checked your glow plugs / relay and injectors?

    rigid pipe between MAF housing and engine

    The grommet at the base of the air cleaner mounting pipe had cracked and was allowing the turbo to suck in more air that the MAF meter was reading. ECU error read showed up nothing, however MAF meters going faulty do not always flag up. Trying to source a new grommet from dealers, however...

    rigid pipe between MAF housing and engine

    Disconnected MAF and it runs fine (power wise) however the turbo seems to be working overtime. Is this the turbo intake hose and the reason the MAF kills off revs is lack of airflow due to the loose pipe? I have tried getting it back on but seems extremely loose :-( Any help or advise would be...

    rigid pipe between MAF housing and engine

    Hi all, apologies, did several searches but did not get anything back. I had a suspected faulty MAF so cleaned it without any joy.I disconnected the MAF and got loads of torque and revs again, I bought a replacement Bosch one with housing and whilst disconnecting the pipe from the old housing...

    Urgent help PLEASE - overspill hose T connector blows off on start

    I need urgent help please, I did search the Google bar, but nothing seems to match so apologies if this has been covered. The Freelander struggles slightly on start up, but then catches. At that moment, the "T" connector for the diesel over-spill hose blows out of the injector. Fuel slowly...

    injector bleed off lines changed but still issues

    Watched lines with engine running, 1st from left line became saturated within 20 seconds. Changed T connectors for injector bleed offs. Problem solved. I suspect perished O rings but didn't have correct profile. May help someone if they have the same issue as a potential fix.

    injector bleed off lines changed but still issues

    hi everyone. I recently bought a Freelander. The bleed off lines were shot, I replaced them, however still appear to gets bit of diesel on the block and a small patch when the Freelander is moved. The idle sometimes appears sluggish and low. I was wondering if this was perhaps a faulty injector...

    Hi

    Hi all, came across the forums in a search on window tensioner issues. Driven landcruisers and hilux in Africa a while and swore by them until I drove a clapped out series 2.... I have just bought my first landy (Freelander 2.0 td4) after moving near Wakefield, whilst it has a few minor issues...
