I jet wash my sensors, no issues from them. If it's a freeby 1 you have removing the bumper is easy. Remove both upper lights with allen key, unplug light bulbs and stow away safe, do same with lower lights in bumper. Open tailgate and remove plastic cover strip that has 6 screws with star...

Hippo, mine is a 04 Td4. Bet you still get paid more than me, lol. I'm also going to be a full time student again come September and will be using the car even more than currently to get to college and back. Haha, Expenses are small change compaired to the huge mess the nhs and benefits...

Last summer i managed 585 miles from 1 tank, 63 litres to fill back up. 60 mph on the motorway sitting in lane 1, moving out to overtake then moving back in. Cant stand mlm's and im not one of those 40mph on country road folks. Us young students need to watch our cash somehow. ;)

I got my freeby in 09, the tax has jumped up as you have said. a tank of fuel has jumped from £56 to nearly £90. However, it's the price we pay for Labour blowing the whole lot and over spending by huge margins. The partys over for those who got something from it, the time to pay the bill is...

I run mine at 31 all round. Im now getting about 480-530 a tank, this tank wont be as good as i sat at Vmax for a good few miles during the week coming home in the early hours of the morning. Still have the bmw upgrade to do and check if my MAF is fecked.

You remove one of the propshafts to turn it into a 2wd freeby. Yes, you may get a few more mpg but personally i wont be turning mine into mondo mode. I prefer the grip i get from having power going to all corners.

Having just replaced a maste cylinder. Buy a genuine one. The one I took off was a cheap pattern part fitted 18k ago by a garage. Was not impressed when it packed in so soon. Genuines are £135, you may also need to get it pressure bled to get it back right. I know mine needed it done.

They have already had one attempt to solve it. 2nd times the charm I guess.

Will have a look but the noises stopped for a while when the parts for the mot were fitted. Hense I'm thinking that they are to blame. Take it back and tell them to fix it?

Michelin synchrones. 225/55/17. Got them brand new 2 years ago, likely before they were discontinued. Will get another 2 years out of them so I don't need to worry about tyres till then.

Hi all, my 04 td4 got new drop links, ball joints and front anti roll bar bushes for it's mot in january. Ive covered just over 1500 miles since and i have been hearing a loud clunk/banging noise from the front when going over bumps in the road for a couple of weeks now. The parts are supposed...

Nope, daily driver freelander here. Great car for doing so, better view ahead so I can react to stuff happening quicker. More comfortable than my mates shopping trolley cars and I like the grip on offer when you need a fast pickup and getaway. TCS light coming on in the dry is rather amusing.

My mpg is rising again now that winter is over I was getting about 30 over the winter months, now picking back upto 35/36. I can get 44 during the summer with mixed driving. Although my fbh is still kicking in.

I have the same issue. Good inch of free travel in every direction when in gear. Also mine has started to not go from 5th to 3rd at times. I need to go into 4th then forward to get the gear. Sounds a cheap if fiddly job.

I had a similar issue but it would go away if i lifted off. I had worn Propshaft joint causing it, but you have removed the prop so it cant be that. Are the front driveshaft joints all in good condition? Also what is the mileage of the car?

About to use some in my td4, hoping to get my miles back up from the winter lows of 350 a tank. Sitting on 420 but the lights just came on. Shall fill up the tank with the oil then go the BP for the Ultimate diesel. Have a tescos and halfrauds in the same shopping retail park so i can choose...

Sounds like you had a diesel run away, the tubro seals have likely failed and the engine has ran on its own oil, over revved and then threw a rod or something. Google landrover breakers and give them a call in the morning, they should be able to sell you a replacement engine. Then find a...

Ok, if the fuels crap then add 300ml of 2 stroke oil to each tank. There's a thread on here, maybe a page or 2 back with all the info you need. This will help the mpg and engine running.

Thank you, I got my bar from eBay. My bar is the same bar as "thequeenscheese" linked. Mine was £96 inc postage. It comes with all fixings and full instructions for fitting to 04 onwards models as the bar is shaped for the bumper of the 04 model. Hope this helps.

For service, I would change everything. Oil, air, fuel, pollon, get the BMW part to replace the crankcase filter. Blank the egr and replace the hoses for silicone ones. I would also get the brakes checked as well, just incase something is worn or sticking. Run on good diesel and maybe run a...
