Lol, thanks for the advice! Will probably hot staple it once the bumper off, or just paint the canes same colour as car.!

Hi, I have a freelander 1 2004, recently the lower front grill meet a pigeon, Wondered if anyone have come up with a way of refitting the lower grill without taking off the front bumper ? Currently it's strapped with cable ties to a couple of canes, does the job, but sure someone here has a...

Ok thanks

Any idea on the location of NRV / lifters, top or bottom of the engine, assuming the top makes them easier to service. Always used brake fluids on belts, doesn't rot the rubber else couldn't be used in the brake system and dispels any water

Found on another web site FYI: Key is cut to fit the lock, cant open car and turn key in ignition if key doesn't match lock barrel. This is easy to get cut and made locally for a fair price. Key has a transmitter board which runs off a battery and has lock/unlock buttons to use remote central...

Cam followers, just put in additive to try and sort it out, car now going up for sale before the larger bills turn up. The oil is good as last serviced 7k ago and the correct grade oil was used, checked that. Squeak cured with brake fluid on the belts

I have a 4.4 petrol vogue with 133000 miles. On start up it makes a sound similar to a piece of paper being held in a fan, this noise goes when the car has run for about 5 minutes. I also have a squeak which does go but does change in relation to the RPM. Any thoughts ?

It's a petrol 4.4 vogue 2006 model

After nearly 1000 trouble free miles ( I did get the number right) I have another problem / challenge! When braking I notice that the car (auto) drops from D to nothing no N is displayed. If I hold the gear lever this doesn't happen. Also when in D if I lightly touch the gear lever the...

Your right it was a broken wire, thanks for the advise

Final update on this, found out since the car was originally built there have been 5 updates for the engine management system not only did it current fault but also have a fuel economy improvement

Thanks for the recent advise, module found. Listened to the sensors and found a none clicking one on the rear. New part ordered from famous four for £40 all I got to do now is figure out how to get access to it! Thanks

Thanks for the advice, waiting for it to stop raining and will take a look, I think I read somewhere that the most common area for the wiring issue was near the bumpers so will take a look. Oh the joys of a RR!
