Good Afternoon, I have had a coolant leak on my FL1 TD4 06 for a while now, maybe 3-4 months & I've just been managing it by topping up when required. I recently found a garage were Land Rover specialists so 3 weeks ago I decided to book it in to be fixed. TODAY was that day. I knew of these...

Hello, Anyone experienced rattling from the back boot compartment or rear panels? Not sure where it's located & it doesn't do any harm but it's bloody annoying. I've had the side interior panels off while searching for the cause of the "fish tank" & I believe there were formerly insulation on...

Hello, Need a bit of advice. I've been to my local garage about a blowing noise when the turbo kicks in in the lower gears mainly two & three, sometimes fourth & I hear AND feel a vibration over the whistle of the turbo when it kicks in. Garage have advised (not Land Rover specialists) that it...

Thanks Nodge. The yellow plug (belt pre-tensioner) us that a b*stard to unplug or? Does it effect the ecu or anything like that?

Thanks for the input guys. I've managed to find a second hand seat, only one of my kind on Ebay. Actually being delivered tomorrow. Is replacing an easy task? Is there a connector for the heated seat? Like plug and play?

Hello, I have a 2006 TD4 2.0 Freelander with Alcantara heated seats. The passengers heated seat working fine no problems. Driver seat had a lot of wear & tear, side cushion has a tear in, however the heated seat doesn't work. Had it in the garage on Thursday & was advised that it was the mat...

Well I originally order the 8019 as it was best head unit 19/20 but after 3 weeks it was still out of stock so they upgraded me. £600 unit for £425! I guess the connection from my old one will be of similar type so could I just use these? I'd like to think im competent enough but just would like...

I noticed my at lower revs & also when accelerating in lower gears. Sounded really tinny. Had I owned a set of reps then I may have found it myself but it was a garage job for me. It's deceiving because you think it's coming from one area but it's another ‍♂️

Just purchased a new head unit Kenwood DMX8020DABDS. have a Sony XAV64BT that's discon & very slow. Also purchased a Kenwood Mini Amped Woofer for under passenger seat. How hard will this be to fit? New HU has GPS signal for dashboard & will require DAB aerial too. Should I attempt this or leave...

Not sure of you've managed to find the problem with regards to the noise from pulley area, I had a noise that I thought was from the pulley area however it was the shield near thee turbo above gearbox. It was modified & now it doesn't sound like a bag of sh*t. Still require new one but not able...

I've just purchased the below to add some beef to the sound in my FL1. I have an A/M Sony Double Din stereo which I plan to also upgrade to Kenwood DMX8019DSBS. What would I need to connect this to my stereo? I assume the power cable will require fitting to battery? Does this Amp/Sub need to be...

I like to watch tutorials like that. Thanks for the help. Does the paint need to be high temp resistant though? Maybe Hammerite Black direct to rust would suffice?

Paul99, what paint would you use?

Andyfreelandy, so yes after finding a few possibilities that could be the cause I had to pull the carpets up & take both luggage panels out along with the side windows (fixed). It just happened to be the rear right side window (fixed) has a leak so when I sprayed a hose down the side of the car...

I'm giving my Freelander slot of attention as of late & I've recently cured the issue of fish rank in the boot. The brake drums are rusty & I want to clean them up. What's the best way to do this? Can I do it with them in situe?

What do you guys think about aftermarket gear knobs? Waste of time? I've always though the low gearstick in a FL1 could be improved on... I've found a couple on eBay...

So I found the cause. The water is coming in through the rear window behind nearside passengers window. Took the boot carpet out, both the interior boot panels off & emptied the excess water out off the small chamber between shell & bodywork. Hosed water down the side off the car & aimed...

I've blasted The underside & nothing. After 2 days of no rain I go out this morning to find barely nothing in the cubby but as I like the carpet toward the rear seats it's a lot more damp & the underside of the carpet is wet. I've reversed the car in the drive & currently have the sun on it...

I have no amp under any seat & considering I still currently getting water in my boot the cable that appears in the cubby would surely be void? I guess this means I would have to start from scratch in order to put a sub in the boot?

I also have no amp in my car so atm I have a double din running thev4 door speakers & that's it. I'd like a bit of boom in the back.... what would anyone suggest? HK speaker or something Aftermarket?
