Mine is in for same today.... I believe you can check inside the car with a torch up and behind the dash, behind where the master is located. Your looking for leaks of the hydraulic fluid. If there is none, then good chance its the slave thats gone.
Im told mine will be either £500 or £950 if...
Hi,
2004 Td4.... Over last couple of weeks have noticed that the bitting point on the pedal is getting lower and lower. So much so, that its quite hard to get in gear now and the pedal is on the carpet. First 60% of the pedal travel doesnt do anything at all, just slack.
Have described...
I think I have decided on a Disco 3!!
Sat in one other day, and a lovely place to be in!
Cant afford one just yet though..... will wait a few months and save ma pennies I think!
Spoke to my mechanic, said to stay away from Kia Sorento, nice well made he says, but not designed for the rough...
Welcome, I also have a td4 commercial, 2004 vintage though so the facelift front back etc.
Now on almost 90k, bought it at 12k in 2008 and been trouble free since.
Have thought about changing it (and the Skoda) but the only car that would do me is the Disco 3.... so waiting till I have some...
At the moment I am running a Freelander TD4 Commercial and a Skoda Octavia vRS PD.
Both are brill motors, the freelander been awsome at what it does, will regret losing it, has been fantastic for me.
Problem is, my wife doesnt drive so the Octavia sits at home for 5 days a week while im off...
To BDD...assuming that you live somewhere near Fife.... get Mike Aitken to look at it (He is in Ladybank), he is a Land rover specialist and is top notch with the marque

Are the bearings replaced at 90 degrees to the propshaft?
Are they LR, OEM or cheap bearings?
Haynes says that the bearings should be at 90 degrees and there is a tool that LR use to set this. S'pose you can see from the existing marks on the underside where the old ones were positioned...
I have used it several times going down steep tracks (loose stones/gravel) and indeed have activated going up as well...has been very effective on many tracks as well as a couple of steeper roads in the snow/ice.
Why activate as going up you ask?
Well, it works in reverse gear (as well as...
Find a land rover specialist to do the work for you,
Land Rover and other 4x4 Servicing & Repairs
Probably do a better job than Landrover dealer and will be cheaper.
When I was speaking to a mechanic (can you call them that these days) from one of my local dealers he was saying they are...
My 04 Td4 85,000mile commercial past yesterday too.... was nervous about it mind...
Think it has a sticky injector and there is a slight clicking on right lock and its 1000 mile overdue its service.
Passed OK though and the MOT tester said it was the best one hes driven!!
Well happy at that...
Hi,
Any ideas on the part number for Passanger side wing mirror, replacement mirror....heated version
Off a 2004 Td4 commercial (3dr)....
Is there Non genuine ones you can buy that are heated or have you got to get them from a dealer?

Now on 82,000 so another wee update..... just so that some people can see that there are some freelanders that are good and reliable and not all tales of woe on here!
At the last service (72k) I had the prop bearings changed again. Although no real signs of wear, as mentioned before they had...
Just to add my two penneth...
I bought a 04 td4 in August 08. It had 12,000 miles on it.... so about 3,000 a year.
I think it was a pool car for a company. Anyways, its still running well at 76,000 so the low miles then didnt do it any harm.
