    It's just this is your 4th post with the same problem. Makes it really difficult to see what responses you have had and what has been advised and tried. Remove duplicate posts, post results of tests and you'll find this is one of the best...

    You can tell by the wear on the door side part of the seat bases (the side support bit) on most F1s that they are a bit high for slide in/out access. F2s appear about the same height. There are lots of people who want to make their Freelanders...

    They maybe equally useful, but if you put your back out or harm your disabled passenger getting in or out, it's an expensive bauble. Sadly I learnt late when my own departed mother was disabled how much strain of both parties. My own vanity...

    The F2 is about the same length and height as F1, but quite a bit wider, significantly heavier and significantly more powerful.

    Thought i would update this since I have fixed the rough idle and smoke on cold start. Or rather thanks to the advice i got on this thread i fixed it. When i got the car it was blowing black and greyish smoke and surging when idle. The black...
