    Noise through gear lever

    just reread the last bit of my original post,I've done nearly 20 thousand miles since posting,so if yours is the same its not a problem to worry about,it certainly hasn't got worse,though I doubt it cured itself,its just that I no longer notice it. good luck,

    Noise through gear lever

    no nothing,in fact so much nothing that I don't notice it anymore.I'll have a go tomorrow and see if it still does it . if it still does it,it must of become a background noise that you no longer hear(much like the mrs) ;-)

    should I or shouldn't I

    thanks for that,just the sort of answer I needed.If I were to do the timing chain and pump,would that be a big job for an able home mechanic (me),any special tools needed? thanks again

    Removing TD4 Sump Guard

    Great picture, I couldn't for the life of me,undo a couple of the bolts due to rusting solid and having been rounded off by someone prior to me owning it.I felt around with my fingers to locate the sump plug,then used a hole saw to cut through the sump guard.Cant remember what size of hole,but...

    Water repellant

    You can't put silicone on plug surfaces but you can with contralube. It doesn't affect the electrics at all, apart from keeping them dry, brilliant stuff

    Water repellant

    I know its pricey,but you only use a little bit to do the job,what you don't use don't go off so it'll last you a lifetime.

    Water repellant

    I use Contralube,a bit pricey,but bloody excellent.Its used on boats and stuff so you know it'll be good.I've used it on connectors for Ronbox,it doesn't interfere with electrical signals at all. Cant recommend it highly enough I don't work for them or have any interests in the company.

    Recommendations for a new TD4 back box

    you asked if its an easy job,its dead easy.Bear in mine that when lying on your back or side and exhaust is undone,its suddenly bloody heavy.Mine had a strange sized bolt on the clamp,so I cut it off and got new clamp.Have a look first and see what you've got.Only the one bolt,(2 nuts if a U...

    pulling my hair out. smokey freelander

    just a thought,but a similar problem to yours happened over in a Jaguar forum,turned out to be delaminating turbo hose.The hose apparently looked fine but was found to be closing up during use but otherwise looked fine.The inner rubber was squeezing shut during the vacuum. might be worth a very...

    Do all Freelanders have a FBH?

    I'm assuming mine is a FBH,due to exhaust under NS headlight.

    my 54 TD4 does have a FBH,which seems odd given the other dates given

    Mysterious cracked windscreen.

    I had the same about 2 weeks ago.front screen,from bottom right about 6" in from pillar,diagonaly towards the mirror.Not a sign of any impact marks anywhere.Chap that replaced it said probably a stress fracture,but I don't recall any particularly nasty potholes,hard cornering or kerb...
