just a wee update garage has said turbo went followed by the header tank which made the head gasket go im not happy

had time to look into this more i think it the turbo thats gone :-( thers no conpression its off to a local garage tomorrow to be fixed i hope thanks for all your comments

from what a neightbour has just said how do i tell if its the turbo , and is it an easy fix theres oil in the air pipe running from the turbo unit to the air filter the landy wont turn over

no there were both disco 1`s

sry it was a long day after getting left at services buy the first recovery as he didnt have the hours to run me north of the boarder then a 3 hour wait until some one with a full lot of work hours p reg disco 300 tdi 2.5 as to doing 70/80 mph i was on the motroway and other discos were passing...

probley the seal round the tailgate window - i had the same problem , i replaced the rubber seal

thanks for the advice

i tend to have ood readings from the fuel gauge after not running it for a week then filling it - it tends to stick as a full tank for around 1/2 a tank them drop over night then work normaly

at the mo im running a 1.8i petrol freelander , my wife tends to drive it when ever she can using up fuel , im looking to get a diesel replacement , which is there best mpg between a freelander and a disco as the landy primary roll is family transport

the french towing laws are 3500kg max gross weight tho my info could be a few years out of date

after driving back though ayr to my inlaws and getting my ear chewed for driving on a flat , i dont really mind the light hearted coments i was pre warned when i joined :D

Sorry to hear about yout landrover getting lifted

im quite happy with my freelander as my wife would need a ladder to get into a range rover :D

take it to a local landy and ask if they can swap them for you , they have all the locking nut bits

the logic behind it is they take out 2 of your tyres hoping you have only 0ne spare and have to go off and get the other one fixed then they fix the flat tyre and drive off - qouted from what the police told me this morning

just though i would post a warning here i had 2 of my tyres slashed in greenan castle car park just outside ayr while i was out walking my dog , the police said its not the first report they have had with regards 4x4 tyres getting slashed , im not sure weather is the local f**kwits or someone...

this only happened last night and ive done 200+ miles with the switch being disconected

about a week ago i removed the hdc switch and wiring upto the scoket where it was pluged in i now have the warning light on the dash showing theres a fault is there a way to reset the light or is this a garage job cheers
