Alot of work done today. New rear brake flexi hoses and short joiner sections fitted, drums painted, ird oil changed, vcu bearings aligned, some serious rust tackled and the underside Lanoguarded. Also adjusted the ARB and rear brakes and...

Indeed. Just need to know someone who can do a decent repair job on the rear sills. The rest of the car is pretty decent corrosion-wise and I'd like to keep it going for a few more years yet.

Thanks to all who replied. Ali, I thought for the relatively small amount extra for the full regulator over the repair kit it was worth it. Obviously, in my case I'd have to go motor hunting now. Every day’s a learning day…👍🏻

Replaced OSR window regulator. Motor dead in the water. Been in since 2012 apparently. Anyway all done and working again.

This. Had me windows blinged, innit, ready to sell sum gear. Well ok, I’ve had them tinted, primarily to give a bit more shade for the pooch when she is in the back, and to give a bit more privacy when I’m travelling with my guns. Been thinking...

As per above, finally got round to swapping the regulator. Motor dead in the water, not the original - from 2012. Aaand all’s right with world again…

Many thanks for that Ali.👍🏻

Cheers Ali. Is there a OSR specific vid, or even a rear one. The only ones I can find are the tailgate end fronts. Regards, M.

Thanks Freddie, the very same place I found. Glad you’re happy with it. 👍🏻

Hi All, As per the title, the OSR window failed halfway up at the weekend. There were a few weird noises just before failure - no grating, humming more like something I’d imagine if the wire has snapped and the motor is pulling it along. I’ve...

As requested, a straight, no fuss GS….with good service history….. Unless someone here spots the reg no and ‘knows’ this one and why it was sold on…..!

Yes Andy you’re correct it’s on the left of the column. 🤦🏻‍♂️ Unfortunately I’d ordered the widget before I saw you’re find, although plenty of USB’s is always welcome. 👍🏻 M.

Thanks Andy. Nice find. I’ve got headlamp levelling there but I’ve a blank switch above the heated rear screen in the group of 6 - heated front screen maybe? I’ve had a dry run today removing all the central console and there’s a wire pair...

A solution that I came up with for USB and a useful battery voltmeter is this. https://ebay.us/m/e0yGIy It also fits in the right-hand spare blanked hole that is for LHD headlight adjustment. It is a tight fit but a touch with a file or sharp...

All of my Freelanders had original exhausts so they must have been well made. And yes as Nodge says the power steering hose is always flattened like that. It had me concerned too the first time I saw it.

They are self-under sealing… clever motors

Can't have looked at many Landies if you've never seen an advisory for an oil leak! I got this advisory on mine a couple of years back... They're still there!

Thanks again all of you for your replies. Will be ordering the necessary parts again and will definitely investigate the rear socket wiring. Thanks for that J_D. 👍🏻Will report back with pics when it’s done. Cheers, M.

Thanks for your replies. GG. That’s what I did in the MG. From what I can tell in the FL to get the console off you need to start behind the front seats and work forwards! Getting at the wiring in the MG was easy - I just pulled the cubby and...

Hi All has anyone fitted an aftermarket USB charging socket in their FL1? I fitted one of these : https://www.12voltplanet.co.uk/twin-port-fast-charge-usb-power-socket-with-blue-led-5v-48a.html in my MG TF as I got sick of the USB leads from the...
