    Sounds like it could be the switch on the ignition barrel. Known to be problematic. The indicator stalk mechanism may be pushing/resting on wires that are connected to it, or maybe the small vibration affecting it. What ever, I think I'd be...

    You really are a **** aren't you? We have had members on here install lift kits. Everything is fine for a bit, then their drive shafts have gone. So crawl back in to the hole you spend most your time before coming out and showing yourself for...

    Why you getting all hot and bothered? I know there are plenty of lifted FL2s about - I never said there wasn’t, did I? And some will see no difference. And some will eat up other components quicker and end up replacing driveshafts and the like...

    Possibly - I’ll look next time I plug LR SDD laptop in to it. If it works and I can configure, I’m happy to come over @GrumpyGel and do yours, but you’ll have to cover expenses 😵‍💫🤪

    Although, if you are throwing parts at the problem, rather than finding the error code, if you bung a cheap pump on and the problem persists as-is, you haven't wasted much cash and can put the original back on. I to, feel sure that if the EML...

    If the engine light has lit once, there should be a code stored to read. This will direct you better than changing parts randomly.

    Yeh, or course! If you're switching from intermittent to auto, you'd need that. The OP can have mine if he can tell me how to configure it to be intermittent ;) Mind you, mine's bloody useless! Spent to much of its yoof smoking ganja I...

    Well if its your DPF its nothing to do with induction. Presume its an F2. Meandering at 40 for an hour is not the best conditions for a DPF. They prefer hot and, to a lesser extent, high revs. Dunno if you can do a forced regen on the F2.

    *1 is magic, and seems to be installed in every F2 😵‍💫 Auto lights are great, but, as every car, they still struggle to sense fog during the day, and so many people forget to override and switch their lights on. (That’s not LR specific of...

    GrumpyGel replied to the thread Freelander 2 (LR2) Adding auto headlights & wipers?.
    For the wipers there is no physical bit that is different, the switch has a position between off and on slow and there is a variable lever - so I would imagine there is a config that can set that position to either intermittent or auto. Whether...

    GrumpyGel replied to the thread Freelander 2 (LR2) Adding auto headlights & wipers?.
    I wouldn't bother with the auto wipers cos they are rubbish. What's worse, you don't have an intermittent setting so you are constantly faffing around - double trouble. Auto lights are good, just leave them on auto and forget about ever having...
