HELP!!! WHY wont my freelander start???

...

Did your mechanics check for bad earths, loose connections and the ignition switch?

There is summat wrong with it it wont feckin start

If they had checked everything they would've found the cause.

It is most likely one of these I mentioned.
It could also be the soliniod in the starter motor or the starter itself.
Give it back to them and get them to check it properly

RTFM

No worries

Search on here before posting as collectively we have come across every fault with this motor over the years

Happy Freelandering

Go on a basic mechanics course at your local college, it will help

You'll find it listed between the Flower Arranging and the Hairdressing.

Alphabetical order F, G, H.

But there's a waiting list as the lecturers are too busy with the Advanced Further Intensive Tratter Welding Course.

That comes first under A.

:hysterically_laughi

well your ####ed now for your next issue you have, the brains on here are priceless. people tried to help you by getting more info. Is it too difficult to read the manual? Ive always dipped clutch starting every car, cold oil id thick. hmmm

You didn't even start with 1.8 or v6? Never bite the hand that feeds you, slagging off members here for not being polite is mechanical suicide.

Glad it was a simple fix, go and find another another more polite LR O forum and see if you get the same knowledge there. You'll be back here searching and finding. I promise you.
