Try pressing the 'lock' button a second time after a brief pause, this de-activates the interior movement sensor and is generally used to prevent activation if a dog is left in the car. If this cures the problem then you may have something moving within the passenger space.

Hi and welcome, My guess is that the WD40 has coated the sensor and rendered it 'not very sensitive' if you get my drift. WD40 is great stuff but sometimes it doesn't fit the bill. Get yourself some electrical contact cleaner which cleans and then evaporates. Maplin usually have some at...

Like most plastics, this 5 way fuel line manifold tends to become brittle with age and more particularly when the weather is cold, under these conditions any stress applied will cause fractures. This most often happens during fuel pump or fuel filter servicing procedures unless great care is...

Karma?

Timpsons are very knowledgable ime.

Agreed- there's an instruments module within the shroud iirc.

'If there is say 1 abs sensor failing surely this would show up in a diagnostic test with an error code' As the affected ABS sensor is still producing a signal voltage, Albeit at reduced output voltage compared to a normal sensor, there are no warning lights or stored codes. My approach in...

We came across this problem following replacement of a front wheel bearing on a TD4. Extreme heat and hammering were required to drive out the corroded hub to strut bolts to effect hub removal. Inspection showed that the reluctor ring was fine and we therefore replaced the ABS sensor which...

'It's the closing the o/s/r door again which fixes the problem temporarily is what really gets me. Can anyone help please' I think this is the main clue, I suggest tracing the wiring from the o/s/r door switch back to the CCU in the hope that you may find a wiring fault, most likely would be...

My own investigations have shown that only a completely 'open circuit' ABS sensor fault will show the 'Hat trick' of warning lights. An ABS sensor which is producing reduced signal output will 'turn off' the ABS warning light at the prescribed 5-8 km/hr road speed but will then cause ABS to...

'I think I have a bit missing' You're in good company then! More seriously: Good thread. thanks.

Google Webasto Thermo Top Z/C.

I'm sure that a call to Bell Engineering will be useful as they really understand freelander transmission and are very helpful.

Excellent thread and I'm sure it will inspire others. Many thanks.D

As this pipe is probably original and fitted before the engine was installed, the clips tend to be inaccessible in the limited access behind the engine. Chop the clips off with sidecutters and reassemble using good quality turbo pipe and hose clips.

It's getting the old one out which bumps the labour charge up!

Well, I shall certainly take more notice of crank pulley condition whilst servicing TD4s in future.

I collect all things nautical and the divers helmet is awesome. Your wife has talent.

The self tappers are poor quality and corrode, I had to use 'Mole' grips to get them out, they were replaced with galvanised self tapping screws. The bolts behind the headlamps were also rusted solid and were cut out with a small angle grinder. They were replaced with stainless and now front...
