    TD4 niggles

    I counted to about 48 before pump shut off with the ignition on and engine off.

The EGR valve has had a...

    TD4 niggles

    Ordered crankcase breather filter, air filter and turbo vent filter, just waiting for them to arrive (tomorrow all being well) and hubby is going to give EGR and things a good clean and will see how things lie then. I can hear the pump in the wheel arch when I turn the key, seems to whirr for ages.

    Brake light bolts

    Yeah I've already ordered some stainless on ebay from stigfasteners but I still need to get the old ones out and not having much luck so far. Might need to replace the passenger brake light fitting too as it looks like there is water inside, tho it does still work.

    I'm a complete LR newbie, I've wanted a Freelander for years and I have (eventually) recently bought a TD4 S on a 53 plate with facelift front end. Both the passenger side doors are locking with the key fob but not unlocking. I have tried using the key in the drivers door lock but it still only...
