looking at them i didnt mean they were aftermarket ones. there the clear smokey ones from later model freelander 1's mine had the orange ones. in typical hippo style didnt need any tools. the old ones just came out with my fingers. lol.

i just got a set of smoked wing indicators with bulbs. but was wondering how i remove the old ones with out digging with a screwdriver? cheers

okay just to close this post as i have had the new second hand fuel rail come. it appears my red connector the fuel hose goes into had completly sheared off the rail on my car. dont know where it had gone. im surmising that it was never there when i bought the car. someone had bodged it and it...

lol diesel. i got a second hand rail on the way, so hopefully will swap it all and see what happens

rich did you ever get yours looked at after?

this is all i have left which defo does not go together.

thanks again for the quick reply. looking again tonight in the dark again, it looks like the red part on the fuel rail has snapped the end off somehow and is missing and the other end with the fuel line is also missing the bayonet type. so looks like a new fuel rail in order but where can i get...

hi there. i followed what you said and bingo. the end that goes in to the fuel rail had come away, i tried to put it back in but it seems pretty lose. is there a certain way to put the pipe in. am i missing something. i took a pic on my phone because i couldnt see it. does this end look okay or...

ah wicked, thanks mate. much appreciated. il start there.

hi mate, thanks for the reply, appreciate it. sorry to sound like a newbie but iv only just got this hippo in the last month or two. is the inlet manifold at the back of the engine underneath the injectors or in front of the engine. i think it did pressurise the first time i tried as i always...

can anyone give me advise on my fuel leak? iv got a v reg 1.8 which when i parked up last night was going fine apart from it needs the rear sway bar mount done. got in it this morning for work and it wouldnt start. looked under the bonnet and could smell then see fuel running down by the front...

can anyone give me any advice. got in the freelander this morning and it wouldnt start. looked under the engine and i can see a pool of petrol that looks like its pouring out when i turn the engine over. is there anything i need to be looking for under there or is it just fuel pipes. its a 1.8 k...

hiya teddy. i think mine is defo engine mount related as it hops like a b*tch when i try and take off in first after driving for about 30 mins. like the knackered mount rubbers are fooked. but not so much first thing in the morning when the rubbers are all still cold. im gonna do the sway mount...

if its the same cracking creak i get then its because your rear sway bar mount has worn. mines doing it now. because its worn its allowing the engine to rock to much backwards when accelerating causing the drivers side engine mount called the hydramount to move to much. the noise on mine got a...

when the engine gets warm i get a loud creaking from the engine mount thats on the drivers side. iv had someone look at it and i think its because the engine is swaying to much. im hoping to replace the rear sway mount this weekend. but the creaking is coming from that engine mount that looks...

thanks for the reply. il look into it and change the mounts on the weekend when im back home. my only other question is since i took the prop off it showed how weak the rear mount was so the engine was swaying. but also the hydro mount area is creaking like hell since. is it hard to replace that...

can anyone here please tell me if they have replaced the rear engine mount tie bar?, and what they did to do so please. it looks simple enough to look at, as in its only two bolts? is it a simple case of removing sump cover, taking the engine weight on a jack and then swapping the parts...

okay thanks daniel il get some today

yeah since i bought it im driving with the radio off so i can hear the noise from the engine and gearbox. this car has had a few thousand spent on it in the last few yrs on new head and clutch and cambelt and window regs. iv removed the prop/vcu. im gonna replace all the engine mounts as i know...

been running this now for about a week in 2wd. its running great. my only issues are the mount rattle, i think i will start with the rear mount first as it is rocking some and i think i need to get some cleaner on the maf to stop the over revving. fingers crossed its gonna last a bit. lol
