Yeah im pretty new to Landy world and I was told to stay away from petrol ones of that age and go with Deisel TD4 only. I took that advice and so far ive had a good runner , ok Ive had a few faults amazingly that the same people on here have experienced so far Ive not had and major expense on my...

Ok forget that last post , i went out and had a look , i never noticed the ones on the front heel boards. i will have a go tommorow but im 100% confident It will be done now . Thanks very much boobodag :clap2::praise:

Thanks Boobodag , They are 2 seperate seats , 1 a single and another a double. They fold up and lock with Yellow handled lock things. the The LH seat is the single and is held by one torque bolt on the hinge part but when undone the seat does not move. I will go out and take a look to see if I...

Is it possible to take out fully the rear seats on my TD4 Station Wagon ? I know they fold up but for that little bit more room I want to take them out. I thought the brackets were held in by the torque screws (t40) but there appears to be a black Rivet type thing holding that in. I really...

Well i have recetly replaced all my mounts around the rear diff/VCU area because of notchy grumble going round a bend while accelerating. Problem solved. Have had same problem with first and second , but is due to pulling the clutch out too fast , try and do smoother longer foot presses when...

Yeah nice one , dont have Haynes manual but Im used to fixing RAF Nimrod aircraft, trust me they are typical 1960s pig with no access to anything , Access i never fear. Have had a look at the door assy and behind it for access to handle, looks tricky but I will manage. Thanks for the tip though...

Yeah as an engineer myself and working in a place where we just wrote of a lot of tools , my garage looks healthier than ever :) but yeah point taken on pikey bits , I will buy quality only

Was just wondering if anyone knew the size of special T socket i need to remove the screws that will help me remove the back passenger seats of my Freelander 2001 TD4 Station Wagon. Looking at it I know its a special socket ( possibly a T40 or a T50) but I need one asap. I want to get one from...

This sounds like the problem I have at the moment , got car booked into garage Tuesday but mine deffo from rear passenger side. I had a quick scan boot looks in good nick but could well be the mount , wont know till jacked up Are they easy to fix replace ?

Hi there its been a while since I been last here but just looking for some helpfull advice on a strange noise (not unusual huh) Anyway I have checked the known liast of faults but to no avail as my definition of a sound is different to others. Anyway I have 2001 TD4 5 Door , good nick 78K FSH...

ickle stone maybe cought on pads copper grease for some stupid reason on back plates of pad stops squeal but depends what squeal you get. If its a squeal like a boiled egg shoved up a pigs arse then thats bad. If not then power washing discs will not help. You need to get down with the gritty

Crikey makes me worry now on the one I have bought , starting to worry if Freelander was the right choice. Mines going OK at moment nothing is knackered and runs like a dream ....... fingers crossed and good luck SWB on getting things resolved Robsta :)

Well again in my last post im new to 4x4 but i know most about normal cars. Like MHM says all cars diffo and each has there own distinct way. I got a 2001 TD4 and clutch bites mid point. What was it like before though , has it suddenly gone to high bite Smell indicates spinning and not...

Most vehicles I know if that came from the front you looking at the CV joint , but being new to Landys I dunno what they have in place and being 4 wheel drive may indicate a bearing gone wonky. But thats just a wild guess as I know 4x4s and all offroad are built more sturdy than your norm car...
