I read the gresham story and yes it's very sad ,the idiot who worked on his vehicle should not have done the things he did to it It seems he saw pictures and thought he could build his own off roader without even checking the vehicle was structulay sound ,obviously he had no idea about centre...

goonyarmy thats a bit of a contradiction with all the faults freelanders have don't you think smart arse

thanks for the info guys ,if I do fit the seats i'll get the lot from a freelander and remove the floor and cage The reason for the commecial was 2 very large german shepherds to get about and we already have a family car ,my thoughts end up being different to hers, I only need to collect the...

I would not do anything that I thought would risk my kids the job would be done right and much better than the disco1 and 2 seats that landrover put in the boot to make them into 7 seaters thanks for the tyre info

I bought my first freelander yesterday after having a discovery 1 and 2 so I have a few questions The wife has complained that i've bought a commercial with no rear seats so there's no where for the kids to sit The first question has anyone fitted seats out of another car 1 each side facing...

Does that post mean you can get mike one for £80 ? if it's who you know (or is who you know a "special" friend ), and can I have one for a spare ?

if you can remove the pipe which goes to the turbo from the air filter/air flow meter and get hold of the turbo shaft and see it it has any lift up and down or in and out ,it should have very very little either way , you can also try turning it and you may be able to feel if its catching the...

the edc pumps don't need to be programed it's only the ecu which needs programming to the car The pump is a straight swap

I would fit a remanufactured turbo I fitted one to a 300tdi and it was spot on and came with a 12 month warranty it was £220 plus vat from turbo active with next day delivery in my opinion slightly more money than a scrap yard one but why risk a second hand one that may only last a couple of...

is there a big round multi plug on the side of the pump with 7 black wires in it and a smaller plug below that with 3 wires in ?

after I replaced the clutch in a td5 I had the same problem and spent money on slave and master cylinder which ended up being a waste of money after fitting them I still couldn't get a pedal I ended up having to buy a pressure bleeder and spent days trying to bleed it off it was without doubt...

if it has no throttle cable and has a big round multiplug for the wiring from the back of the pump it sounds like an edc pump which is controlled by an ecu (is it an auto from 1996) if it is the pump can not be adjusted

is it an auto with the edc injection pump (the one with lots of wires connected ) ?

yes the car ran ok before I sorted the cold start so I thought it was something i did and chased my tail for so long then gave up and let the professionals at team valley landrover and les potts have a go and they both gave me it back saying they did not know whats wrong It stats ok and runs...

thanks for the thoughts of the autobox brake but i've just replaced the box and it's still got the same symtems I replaced the lift pump,cleaned out the sedimenter,tried the clear plastic pipe ,replaced the leak off lines and checked and cleaned through the fuel lines from the sender unit

seem to remember a long time ago checking the voltages in and out of the air flow metre and they were as spec ,but I might still try and get a second hand one to try on its about the only thing i've not changed :(:(:(

this was my first 300tdi and when I first got it it went like a train but was very poor to start ,thats were the problems started ,fixing the poor starting then it all went to pot and I thought something else broke ,something else definetly broke as it's no were near what it should be :(:(:(

thanks for the replys I removed and cleaned all the earths when I had the original cold start problems The autobox does not have any electronic sensors the only thing on it is a neutral start inhibit switch which is also a reverse light switch and a diff lock switch A long time ago I checked all...

any one in the durham area fancy having a look ? cash avalible (not much left )

thanks guys I de-cated it and fitted a single box system , also I thought may be a transmission fault so changed the autobox complete with transfer box It starts and runs fine sitting still it just seems when it goes into drive or any of the gears it won't pull the skin off a rice pudding and...
