Gents, After having a few years of almost trouble free motoring from my Freelander. I went to it this morning unlocked as usual engine cranked over ok but would not start. The RAC ran diagnostic on and came up with a list of fault codes C1114, C1146, C1150 Any Ideas or help would be...

Gents, Parked the TD4 up last night after normal perfect days use. Went to use it today and just got a click from the starter no attempt to crank the engine nothing just a click. The battery seems to be fine no response to a jump start. It seems odd that the starter would just give up...

I have had my TD4 MOT'd today and very pleased that it passed with only one minor advisory (slight rust on reat brake pipe. Greased up and may need replacing for next year) This is a great result as the old gal has done 125K. I may even become a convert. I only had the Freelander to see me...

Gents, Callled a LR dealer today for the price of a rear ABS sensor and shocked to find out they want £213 + vat. Just had a quick look on the bay of evil and the sensors are for sale at anyting from £12 - £50 Very confused and yes if something is too good to be true then it...

Well its D day tomorrow for the Gaylander 03 plate TD4, it goes in for full diagnostics tomorrow. Nobody seems to be able to tell me the cause of all the warning lights that are on TC, ABS descent light speedo not working engine management. Depending on the cost of the repairs I could be...

Gents Just had the gaylander on the diagnostic tester and its showing two codes P0500 which is the gearbox speed probes. Have done a bit of research it appears this may be caused by water/ dirt / corrosion in the multi plug to the gearbox. Can any of you fine chaps give me a clue as to...

Gents, Jumped back in the TD4 after a short stop 45 minutes after pulling off I noticed the TC, ABS, Amber hill decent and the engine management light on. Ive had a quick look at post about the 3 Amigos but can't find any that have the EML as well. Any Ideas please. Also can anyone tell...

Gent, as the weather has turned warm and I can take the gaylander off the road for a while, its time to give it a bit of a service. I need to get me a BMW crankcase breather filter, are these filters only obtainable from BMW dealers. Can anyone advise me where to get one from. thanks guys

Now the weather has improved for the better, who parks up the freelander for the summer and starts using the proper car

Gents, I need to re shoe my 03 TD4 in the very near future, My question is which is the best tyre for daily use mainly road. I do not have a need for off road tyres. Any info or recomendation would be greatfully recieved

Gents As the weather turns colder I'm finding the heat in my TD4 getting less and less. This is not due to the fact that the engine temp is low, it seems a lack of air flow is the problem even when the fan is turned up to max. The pollen filter is new. Any ideas would be great cos I is freezing...

Gents, My rear wiper appears to have a mind of its own!!! If use my wipers on delay or slow speed the rear wiper starts a few minutes later? even though Ive not touched the rear wiper switch Confused

Gents, thanks for all the info Ive gained from you all, I've now managed to get my TD4 up to 35 mpg combined. Ive blanked off the EGR, removed the ;chip; and uped the tyre pressure to 32 psi. This vehicle has to work hard and earn its keep. With my last fill up Ive added some two stroke...

Hi one and all, Did I pay to much for my Freelander 2003 TD4 ES with 116k on the clock. Its very clean and tidy inside and out. With long MOT and some tax. The only thing I'm disappointed with is the heater its not very hot. It cost me £2600 cheers
