First clutch change on freelander TD4 (2004)

Who ever designed a gearbox with a hidden bolt behind the IRD wants shooting, unless you remove the IRD then it cannot be reached in any format, I have done many clutch changes but this has got to be the worst I have ever had to do.
In the end I took the engine and gearbox out of the car to do it.

After reading up on it first and seeing what a pain it looked to do it in situ, I did the same thing

At least it gave yer the opportunity to spend more time with yer Freelander.

Sure that's really cheered him up....!

Are you gonna put the hidden bolt back in? Thats the question?

The answer is yes the bolt went back in

The problem is that there is little information on Landyzone, if you look at the rover-mg forum there is unlimited information, considering that there is a lot of landrovers on the road were is all the info, not even a workshop manual to refer to.

Does the Rave manual not include this info?

I'm sure it does, but there is no mention of Rave on Landyzone. Oh yes there is, its on every other thread almost!

Even the rather haphazard LZ search on "workshop manual" found a link on the 3rd result.

rave is in me sig anorl

He joined in 2007... and he only just needed a manwell... he must have a reliable Freelander.

We should be nice. It's an easy mistake.
