Quick update on this....... This has progressed from being all gears difficult to get, to being 3rd gear nearly impossible to enagage without grinding and reverse being impossible to get wthout great difficulty. All other gears are stiff to engage. Any more help would be greatfully received.

htr, Which Bracket on the gearbox? Is it easy to access/view? I'll try bleeding the Master/Slave system because having driven her to work this morning I did notice that when the clutch was in there still seemed to be some bite on it, enough at one point to hold the car from running back on an...

I had a new slave and master system put in about 12 months ago, at the time everything seemed ok, but this seems to have just suddenly happened.

I have not been on here for a while, mainly because I have fallen out with my little TD4 freelander.Having recently finished some much needed work on her, I was looking forward to driving her once again, but this was short lived! Long story short is, I am finding that changing gear is very very...

I am doing a service as part of this work, Only had the car 18months and not topped up oil in that time............. Started work that I didn't need to do me thinks............ Oh Bugger!!

Thanks for that, hadn't thought about using petrol...... Tried gunk degreaser fluid and sloshed a can of that about in it, then washed it out with hose, got rid of quite a bit of oily s***. Its been off the car for a week or more now so should be dry.

She has been down on power a bit. Sluggish on pick up and quite a bit of blueish/whiteish smoke until warmed up. I have the turbo boost control valve to replace, just thought that there was excessive amounts of oil in the intake tubes.SES88.... How much is lots off oil, it was running out of the...

Been planning to do the Ron box and maf mod, but on stripping the old girl down this weekend I have identified the need to replace the turbo. My first thought was that the EGR mod I did was allowing carbon build up still, but stripped right back to the turbo to find oil all through the system...

Looks very much like what I have in mind, does it improve power and economy??

Just thought I would ask the forum to see whether this idea was worth persuing.I want to modify the air intake system on my 53plate facelift TD4 freelander. I have been planning a rebuild of my track car (another story) for quite a while. I have modified the Turbo intercooler intake pipework on...

Does the M+S not mean Mud and Snow, or am I thinking wrong?

It needs a good service and possibly some paintwork polished up in a couple of places

Just wonder what peoples thoughts were on this........ I run 225 50 r17 's for summer/autumn and long motorway journeys, but during the winter I run on 225 75 r16 Mud terrains to cope with the off road conditions on the local shoots. I have heard say that Mud terrains can lead to drive train...

Austen,I am experiencing the same problem as angeloc, was back in march 2013. The car is vibrating quite badly at speeds between 55 - 70 and also from 75 upwards. I have been trying to diagnose the problem and thought it might be VCU/drive shaft related. Then last week my wife noticed that on...

Where abouts on the injectors does this test kit attach?

You have just described exactly the annoying problem I have with my 53plate TD4 :confused2:

Thanks Guys, Not been on for a while, but I have traecd the clonking noise. While putting my off road tyres on at the weekend I got the misses to turn steering wheel and saw that the spring was jumping in the top mount, looks like I might have to drop the suspension off sooner than I wanted...

Guys, This subject has probably been covered countless times in the past, but I have a clonking noise coming from the front of my TD4. It only happens (or I only hear it) when initially setting off and turning the steering right or left. I have tried to have a look under the front at all the...

If there is going to be another session in either the lakedistrict or NY moors let me know. I want a go!!:car:

I had a friend who owed a disc and he had no brains either, must be an affliction that runs in the disco family:D
