And I really love that Landrover allocated 9/10ths of an hour to replace a rear diff....

Came across this http://www.myfreelander.co.uk/Transmission/fdprobs4.htm Seems that 2002 and before Freelander Diffs had a problem, and landrover changed the design. Now I'm worried the replacement diff I fitted was the older type. This is probably old news to most of you on here, but is...

Thanks, I'll give that a try. Just wasn't sure if the 2 seats model where supposed to fold down or not..

Anyone. I either need them folded down by the weekend or have them taken out, I've a load to lift. from my last freelander, the seats have to fold back, to be able to remove them, so can anyone advise? I'm clear on how to take them out, but as I recall, they have to fold down to do that.

Thanks. I'm monitoring it at the moment. Seems that first starting and first few minutes driving. Hard, but not impossible. After that a lot easier. But clutch is firm when pressing down but has to be on floor to change.. I've a rear brake light switch, possible master clutch servo, and...

Picture of the rear seats attached.

Are the 2 seater rear seats in a freelander supposed to get able to fold down. Mine won't but might be broken pull handles at the back.. picture next

2004, 2.00 TD4. Opinions on most likely problem please. Got a new Master Clutch Servo, but before I fit, what is likely to be problem. Clutch is very low, on the floor plus another push. Pedal comes back up okay. It will go into gear, but hard to do so.

Okay, to try and find my humming source, going to change the oil in the IRD (also to check the IRD is basically okay. Im aware what to look for in the old oil A few pointers if anyone can. 1) What is the best/recommended oil for a 2.00 TD4, 2004. And how much ususally needed. 2) How long...

I did the test, 1 wheelup 1.20m Bar, 4kG Weights (yes I know it should be 5KG, and I did put 2 x 2Kg and 1 x 1Kg weights into the boot of the hippo this morning, (Using my newly repaired opening rear door and and window :) ), but the bastard freelander pixies that hid me new aerial, seem to...

Thnaks Ive identified a car at a breakers, and going Saturday, If deal can be done, i can get the seats and switches from them, and the steering wheel (Leather). Ill have to check the loom in my car first, but front fog lights can probably wait until another time, but they have the switches in...

But do vcu Bearings stop humming when clutch or out of gear...

I am looking at a nice set of leather sets foe my 3 door. The front have Heated setas, and I noitce that the blanks for the switches where heated seatswitch would be, have the necessary wiring to these Does anyone know if the Wiring for the heated seats is there by default, and could I just...

Thanks, its the one wheel up test I'll be doing

Yup, she got all new rear diff mounts. Work done 8n September was Full service, Inc all filters 2 new front wishbones Replaced rear diff All new diff mounts New carrier brackets for fuel tank REAR WINDOW REGULATOR replaced Rear door opening issue fixed New Carrier Bearings for drive shaft/...

Thanks, but new carrier Bearings just fitted, and a replacement diff that was checked and serviced by an engineering works/gearbox specialist.. The VCU check I'm going to get done tomorrow at work garage.. and I'm a manual box, is 28 mpg normal for a 2.00 lt td4..?..would a defective vcu hum...

I splurged out when I did the work to her. All brand new tyres front and rear. Only 200 mile done since mot. And at 28 to the gallon, might not be a lot more. My 308 estate is doing 65...filling the hippo hurts like feck....

Did that. No noticible difference with hum. Am getting a scobing from front wheels, when I turn, that I'm sure are brake calipers binding, but that's next week's posts.... Appreciate I bought the car 3 1/2 years ago, and only did the work for MoT in September, and in turn only put her on road...

Was done by a garage that should have, but I'll get her over the pit at work and check...annoying as diff and carrier bearing were done and seems to be coming from one or the other..but if clutched and free wheeling would they not still hum?

Raised this in another thread, and seeking advise what it might be. 3 door 2004 TD4. Rear diff was replaced with a 2nd hand serviced unit,new carrier Bearings on the drive shaft. When driving there is a hum, but clutch or take out of gear and free wheel, the Hum goes away.. hum seems to be...
