Hmm, when you turn the ignition on can you hear the fuel pump operating priming the fuel system?

My penny-worth: Years Ago I owned a Rover P5B. The sump gasket needed replacing. When the sump was off it got a good clean. In it was a grey almost clay-like goo at the bottom and in that were numerous aluminium pieces = shavings. I wasn't hugely concerned and put it down to residue from the...

In the plastic inlet manifold on the left hand side [as you look at the motor] there is a jiggle valve - a small diameter pipe leaves the manifold by the engine oil dipstick and connects to the coolant tank. The plastic manifold can warp... or be very slightly mis-shaped and coolant can get past...

I hope you've seen this gem!

Ha - it was new in 2015. But has always had poor reception.

Thanks for that - Yes I do have a wired in Dash cam. However, the radio reception was crap before I fitted that :(

Hello peeps, \Advice needed from I.C.E gurus My radio reception is poor. I've a Sony head unit [CD, USB input, AUX input, Blue tooth connectivity]. It's the radio which annoys me. It quickly loses reception - crackles.... no buzzing that increases with speed. Things I've done: replaced the...

Spend a couple of hours under the FL1. Initially I was wanting to add an extra aluminium washer to the first gear switch on the g'box to see if I could get rid of the amber HDC warning lamp. But I could find the right washer anywhere :( So I hard a good look at the VCU bearings and rubber...

A knocking of clonking? Possible noise from the front end = Anti roll bar [ARB] bushes cheap & easy to fix. OR Drop links are worn out [they connect the ARB to the strut]. Again a pretty easy fix and not expensive either. Rear end Noise: could be a number of things. When cornering and under...

OK - that's an interesting idea. I'll have a look.

I've been tinkering with this problem for a while now but feel defeated. I must have missed something obvious. Late last year I replaced the clutch in my'98 K series FL1. All seemed to go well and the clutch works beautifully now. However, I have the amber HDC warning lamp lit on the dash. On...

So after 11 years of owning my FL1 I finally got around to getting the rear window washer working. I made it more of a mission than what it needed to be! I thought the pump motor was stuffed - no. Took both pumps out and then the washer bottle itself. The Motors were good - quite a bit of...

On the Rimmers site it says: TRX000010L "Specifications and additional product information Freelander 1 L314 1996-2006 - 2.0L TD4 BMW M47 Diesel manual models - Front driveshaft, LH - Quantity Required - 1" Remember this thread is from 2021!

What is the process to remove the washer bottle?

A very good post! Did you start in the 'middle' by the ridge which separates the front/read, and then work forward to the sun visors..., then carry on working to the rear?
