Oh dear. Trace of coolant in bores. Fed thin pipe in and syringed out pink water. Not looking good. Will check the other 3.

Here we go !

It's home. Sadly, someone has been in the engine bay before me ! Fuel rail to injector links disconnected, one injector missing and the others loose. PCV top cover loose and fitted with BMW mod cyclone device. All covers and intercooler hoses...

Have a good spare engine in stock so not too worried. If a garage have written the engine off I am more hopeful it isn't too bad ! Love the finding out bit ! I'll extract what info I can but have a feeling the seller is not the owner who would...

TD4 is 6.8 Litres with filter.

MOT history says all is mostly well. Know nothing of engine failure details but have a spare !! Would be rare for a TD4 to destruct unless turbo has caused run away. Paid about the price of tyres on it so worth a shot.

Apparently, but we'll see ! Picking up tomorrow.

Powder coat seems to be the way to go. Remember to either go for black centre caps or get them colour matched.

Why did engine on or off affect this??

Good stuff. Shows new, known manufacturer's components can still let you down. Glad it's sorted.

Yep, been living near the seaside !! That's why it is donating its goodies before being recycled !! Not a single like for April 1st. ☹️

Absolutely free way to lift suspension. Take all unnecessary components off and up it goes ! Biggest difference was made when the insulation tape was taken off the wiring loom. Have a great DAY 👍 See photos. .

It can be done. Undo hub nut. Loosen trailing arm to hub bolt. No need to do more than a couple of turns. Undo and remove trailing arm to chassis bolt and let arm hang. Undo lower arm to subframe bolts x2. Unbolt handbrake cable clip to subframe...

Figured if anyone would know those parts it might just be you. :)

Do reverse lights stay on with engine running ??

Need to find out why it is 8.8 V at the fuse. If battery is 12.7 V. Maybe a bad battery terminal or loose ?? Good luck on your fuse hunt.

At 8.8V then you battery also needs charging if it is not damaged.

The 120A fuse is the main feed to the ignition switch and then on to many functions... I have posted the circuit. Any 120 A fuse that fits will be fine.

Glebewood Lodge, Brandon Road, Methwold, Norfolk, IP26 4RH, United Kingdom Maybe! ?? Not recommending as never used

Looks like the coolant rail 'O' ring. Cheap to buy, tricky to fit. Either release the rail from fixings or drop the water pump off to replace.

Circuit shows an 'illumination relay' which is what you have circled. Don't know what this is?? Don't think it is inhibitor.

No coding needed for your vehicle. Hope you didn't pay anything for it !!

Now sold. Many thanks.

On the FL1 it is a simple bearing swap !! Just saying 🫠 It's called progress 🤔

Any help ?? Thread 'Propshaft bearing replacement Freelander 2' https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/propshaft-bearing-replacement-freelander-2.326310/

No idea what it should look like. But agree, don't look right !! Is it a bearing or should it be a bearing ?? Looks like a J cloth to me 😀😀

Easy one if you haven't done it, swap front wheels to rear. Balancing ?!?!

Thanks. If I crack an easy way then I will document it.

Thanks. Can you remember what they unbolted to get the driveshaft out. The minimum and hopefully not the brake lines !!?? Thanks

Hi, anyone done this? If you take out the bottom tie bar bolts will the hub pull forward enough to get driveshaft out and clear of hub?? Looking to help a mate and all bolts look horrid and rusty along with the brake cylinder bolts and corroded...
