Hi gang, About two weeks ago a drone started toward the rear (and i think drivers side) of the hippo.. Im starting to worry now, because its not completely constant noise wise - i hope its a wheel bearing, but the last time a bearing went in a car of mine, it was a constant drone that...

cheers hoyt, so as im going to put it back in around october time, i dont have to blank anything off then?

Hi guys, thanks for all the replys. I was talking about this to a mate in work, who has a friend with a Y plate Td4 who takes the prop off every spring to save wear.. He has his own garage and pit, so said he would do mine for me for free:D:D However, he has told my mate that i need a...

Cheers guys, Hoyt, was speaking to my mate with one thats got the prob removed, and he said he thinks it makes it drive a bit nicer if anything? but everyones different.. maybe ill like it maybe i wont, ill give it a bash and report back :D Out or curiosity mate, how long should the job take...

Hi guys, Had my hippo a year now - love it.. The chap i had it off had it from nearly new.. and at the end of the winter each year (sometime around march), he always took the prop off and left it off til about the end of october, and then refitted it for winter.. We was really into his...

Hiya Wulf, the link you have to the engine management ligh thread was started by me. Mine came on like yours back in November time. However with mine, it only came on when the engine was warm (even if only just slightly) If you started from cold (or if it had been sitting for a few hours)...

Den, did you see much of a difference when you disconnected your actuator pipe??And where abouts can i find the large plastic fuelpump connector? Miguel, Thanks for the link.. If i find a kit aand fit it,ill let you know -obrigado amigo.. Chaser, Thanks pal - im glad im not the only...

Thanks for all this info guys.. How do i go about an EGR bypass? Is it something i can do myself?? If not, how much will it set me back if i take it to a garage to get it done?? Funny you should say that about the timimg Den... The indy garage said fault code 1 was MAF, and it also logged a...

Cheers Den, ill def be going for a K&N filter, but my injectors were recently overhauled, so i think they are fine.. This whole saga started last week.. My engine light blinked on for a few seconds, then my revs started going all over the shop, from 1000 - 4000 and anywhere in between!! Its...

thanks guys.. So, i guess id best just buy an identical Bosch MAF then? Been quoted £183 inc vat.. Ill def be giving roveron a call first though.. maybe he has another suggestion??

Hi all, MAF advice please.. I have a suspect faulty MAF.. Running the original Bosch one now, and have been advised to shell out for a new replacement Bosch, so its “like for like” Wanted to know if any of you guys have replaced your original BOSCH MAF with a different one? I see lots of...

Exactly waht optimus prime says.. I love my diesel freelander, but if there is one thing i would change, it would be to have the automatic gearbox... My manual 2.0 diesel gets about 38MPG average, more on a run.. I had a 55 mondeo ghia X until Jan last year, and i was in the same boat as...

Hi all, Problems today.. Hippo has been fine for ages - drove 12 miles into town, hippo fine, on the way home i was accelerating through 3rd gear, and it felt like it stopped accelerating for a brief moment.. At first i hought it was in my head, but as i came down a hill off throttle...

Hi matey, 1st things first.. :welcome2: Well done for putting your fix on here.. lots of people come on here with problems, but not many post fixes.. so if thats how you solved your problem, well done. Get ready for abuse of the tratter boys.. But just take it as banter.. they are all...

Well, Its just like OP says - the solonoid is faulty.. Youll need to buy a new/2nd hand one and youll have to take the door card off come hell or high water.. Its a common problem My freeleander did it on the drivers front door to start with, then the passenger front door went.. they all...

Thanks for all the comments chaps.. My heart still says if i get one, a 2.5 d will be the one to get.. so after all the comments, i think ill say thanks but no thanks to this 4.0 one ive been offered. It sounds alsothat it MUST have the EAS working to enjoy the full benefit of the RR... Hope...

Right ho - here goes Got a freelander at the moment (go on, abuse me:D), which we will never, ever get rid of (til it breaks again!) but we have been offfered a P38 off a friend for a very low price.. Heres the spec 4.0 HSE auto 94k Full history Multipoint LPG conversion 2 years ago, with...

Did you have the child locks activated on the rear doors before this problem?

FFS MUN!!! Cox is spot on. Small feet is not a freelander issue, its a personal issue!!! What a silly question.. i love trying to help people, i'd even go as far as to say my patience is almost as good as singvogels :rolleyes:, but a thread on small feet on your clutch pedal is just stupid &...
