Have searched youtube and cannot find it must be removed.

Have you noticed it more when cornering if so it could be the tyres as mentioned above especially as I note you have replaced the vcu bearings you obviously had that problem. I bought one recently and it had all that work done and had the road noise and more so when cornering so thought nothing...

Just had my 2001 Freelander TD4 MOT tested the other day and passed with flying colours in NI here and its a fairly tight test. I noticed when they had all four wheels of the ground and turned the front NS wheel by hand that the two rears also turned Idid not notice the front os turning though?

Thanks A I have been late at getting back to this subject due to health problems and should have combined it with my other post regarding the plastic gear wheel. Anyway to cut to the chase the cables are they available anywhere? Its also my intention when I get the old rails off to take them to...

Thanks for the information

Thanks A I had it apart and saw what you mention only I thought someone may have known a way to remove the gear wheel now I know thats not possible so I have got my answers in otherwards if the gear wheel is messed like mine its a new or s/hand motor.

Thank you I never knew that ! your knowledge knows no bounds unfortunately it is let down by your sarcasm. Let me be the one to now impart to you a little knowledge in return, i.e. sarcasm is the lowest form of wit! This is a forum were it is my belief most of us help each other a lot of it...

Freelander 2001 with usual broken rails teeth etc in the sun roof. So look on ebay and do lots of research knowing what I need exactly. I have seen on ebay sunroof motor gear and it shows a white plastic what appears to be a gear wheel but being unsure I ask the seller the questions but no...

From experience I have had a similar experience after servicing and it all stems from fitting that dreadful design of an air filter. What happened was when I serviced mine I done the crank case breather filter as well (very important often overlooked and well covered in the forum) and its a...

Its well (pardon the pun) covered in the forums could be one of several things. My first advice to you would be remove the carpet out of the boot and dry boot area throughly. The run a hose on the back door especially around the seal, with the door closed that is! Mine here is still leaking but...

Emailed Waebasto 2 days ago looking advice and this is the reply short but informative so thought I'd pass it on. Your heater is currently set to activate when the ambient temperature is below 5 degrees and the engine is running to assist engine warm up. There is a possibility to...

Emailed Waebasto 2 days ago about the system fitted on my 01 Freelander for some advice and this is the reply I got short but informative! Your heater is currently set to activate when the ambient temperature is below 5 degrees and the engine is running to assist engine warm up...

Ha its a local expression known to we ulster scots in Northern Ireland ! Yes the more I experience the freelander the more I keep thinking that maybe those chinese toys we all had as children were not as badly built and designed as matchbox would have us believe! I think the same persons who...

Well had a look at the rails and it looks like the two things gone are the drivers side rail due to broken teeth and the gear wheel on the motor that drives the cables. So I will order these and give it a go. Is there anywhere that sells the cables just in case? Honestly the whole mechanism the...

Ok finally have to do it as the sun roof button was accidently pushed yesterday and well it stuck well and truely so had to dismantle to get closed. Anyway the diagnosis is that the rails are missing a few teeth one of the rails is cracked and the gear wheel on the motor has seen better days...

Yes you are right however 2 university graduations in a row with photographs dinners etc and one with three return flights to the main land from N.Ireland really eats at the linnings of the pockets ! so I will have to back burner it for a while but thanks anyway to all.

This is looking bad lads ! no one has any idea's.

Just spent an afternoon stripping and rebuilding my freelander passenger front ns door to fit an alleged working actuator which I bought from a car dismantler. My door lock was working only to lock not unlock with the fob before I started. Well what I noticed in the part I got from the dealer...
