What have you done to your Freelander today

Thinking about some cabin air intake heater...
Today we have here heavy snow fall, and my air intake was blocked few times (need to stop and clean them up)...

I too found that pallets fit perfectly in the back today. On the same trip I went to turn round on a grass verge as I always do and VERY nearly got stuck. I forgot I took off the propshaft last weekend. Whoops!

Played silly buggers with my wheels that are the wrong fitment, and offered up the side bars for a looksie looksie!

Not today but replaced the top bush on rear diff on Saturday and changed the engine oil and oil filter (I am going to cut a hatch into the undertray soon to drain the oil without taking it off) I normally change the oil and filter around 6 - 7000 mile intervals.

I think Hippoo did that and there is a plan on here somewhere.

Swapped batteries with wife's car, because hers was dead, found hippo battery was too tall for hers....

Put battery back on hippo. Swore when tailgate window snapped its cable on re calibration...:hurt:

Now ordering replacement cables for tailgate and passenger door......

Broke down at the Petrol station.
Just dead starter would not spin,so had to be bump started.
Got it to my mates garage and whipped off the engine cover.
Fault was a slightly green earth connector on the front of the starter motor.

What a relief

Everybody at the service station assumed I had wrongly fueled it according to the assistant,so Landrover`s honour is intact if not mine.

I have the same problem with mine. Made a round trip of 450km in heavy snow fall today. Everytime it gets blocked i get a windscreen condensation problem.

Fitted a replacement aerial base as the original had snapped off.

Serviced and MOT.

No advisories.

Just done my diff mounts

Only problem I had was with the passenger side one........ The 18mm captive nut came off whilst un doing the bolt

No banging with gear changers now!!!

Spoke too soon........ Diff mounts didn't fully cure my knocks...... I'm stumped now

Have you checked the RH front mount on the rear subrame? Its a usual problem with the FL1's.

When do the Knocks occur. If it's a clicking noise from the rear when turning on lock it could be subframe

Used the old girl to do a dump all the old flooring and sink unit from the utility room.

Sorted out steering controls and microphone for new head unit, although not today but yesterday had fresh tyres all round and tracking set, track rod adjusters were stripped and cleaned up to keep them from seizing should make life easier in future, britpart armrest was also fitted yesterday. Nice bit of kit I would reccomend it.
