Not the case as this part is in serious short supply. They are my regular garage and quick to fix, also my son is an apprentice there so I know the people and they always give a good service. Regards

Thankyou so much. I got their last one. Had to pay some sort of ebay vat on it which took it to 72 quid (rip off ebay) but delighted to finally have one on its way. Again many thanks Chris

Hi folks. Mu Fl2 has been sat in a mechanics garage for a month now after the right hand rear handbrake plate failed. We can't source one anywhere and currently in a back order queue with Landrover. Got everything else for both sides including disc, pads shoes and the left hand rear plate and...

Thanks for the reply.. I blanked it off and run it for a half hour around the town I live in. Seeks ok but I'm guessing it might go into limp mode on a longer journey. I'm no expert on these rings so thanks for the advice. I'll see how it goes over the next few days. Thanks Chris

Hi folks. I'm planning on attempting to blank of the egr on my 2011 fl2 diesel. Is there an issue with the car going into limp mode or is this something I can rectify at home? I've also read that fl2's from 2010 onwards can't be blanked? Any advise would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Chris

Hi folks. I've inherited the dreaded door locks motors failing on my Freelander 2 diesel 2010. I've been trying to source all 4 door locks on ebay but the sellers are not exactly being very helpful with daft questions like is it a 2 or 3 plug type which it isn't. As far as I can see it has the 2...

Maybe the rear cv's ??

Cheers for the advise. 5 identical new tyres all at te same pressure just to make sure. Proper chunky bjghers so hopefully just that i am hearing. Will check the oil soon and see whats what. Cheers C

Injector 2 knackered and injector 4 retaining bracket snapped. Changed out and running great thankfully. Onto the next job C

Some noise from the rear as well but if its the diff i will wait till it gets a bit nousiet and change for a reconditioned unit and change the mountings at the same time for less tuan 300 quid. Looks an easy job. Apart from that and an underseal we should be good for winter. C

Thanks pal. I have the hippo up and running. One damaged thingy ontop of injector 2 and the retaining bracket on injectir 4 had snapped so there was no compression in 4. Replaced and all running perfectly again. Got a mate to plug in and clear faults and no new ones appeared so its back to...

Not really to be honest. The solenoid resistance is the same on all 4 of .8 of an ohm. Haven't found data yet on wether thats correct but when i pull the power supplies individually when its running number 2 hardy changes the engine note. I will do a running leak back test later

Thanks pal. I reckon my problem is one of my injectors. I reckon i have knackered it when i stripped and cleaned it. Will find out when i fit another one in its place. Cheers C

Hi folks. Quick question can't find anything on removing the actuator from a faulty injector so i can replace it with a working one. Is this a suitable fix or am i better just replacing the entire injector? Thanks Chris
