Hi, Thanks for the quick reply The noise is present when driving at a constant speeds, depress the clutch it goes away, release the clutch its back. Cant say for sure if its worse under engine breaking as when I'm doing the clutch in and out thing its just a second or two after taking my foot...

Hello everybody, Hopefully someone can help and guide me with this one....... I've got a whining noise, not very loud but noticable. When driving along there's a whine comming from somewhere, when I depress the clutch it goes away, when I engage it again the noise comes back so I'm suspecting...

Hi, I had those tyres on a Focus, fairly quiet and good grip, not sure if they'd be suitable for the Freelander though, If I was you I'd check the load rating on them before fitting

There's lots written on this subject, something to be aware of though is different makes of tyres can sometimes be of slightly different sizes and therefore different circumferences, the largest needs to go on the rear. I'm changing my fronts later this week with the same make as the nearly...

Hello out there! Looking for a bit of advice about brake discs and pads please. Its time to change the discs and pads on my 04 TD4 Sport, I've had a look on fleabay and there appears to be alot of choice on manufacturers, Looks like I need a bit of assistance and advice as to which ones...

Has anyone used Yokohama Advan ST ? I've got a TD4 Sport with 18" wheels, anything is going to be expensive I know so an informed choice is better than going in blind!

Think the first job in the morning is to find out where he's sourcing the parts, maybe its our local LandRover stealer? Been looking on fleabay, think its maybe best if I supply them. Thanks for the heads up Nick, appreciate it!

Thanks for the replies chaps! The quote includes clutch and slave cylinder, so parts, labour and the dreaded VAT. He mentioned if it needed a flywheel it would be £1100.... my ears switched off then so not sure if that was total price or extra with flywheel

Hi Almost went over to the dark side and buy a Discovery........ but picked up an 04 TD4 Sport manual that needs a little bit of work instead!! Been quoted by a local garage £720 for fitting a new clutch and replacing the prop shaft later in the year once I'm ready to fit a replacement VCU...

Thanks for the advice gents, much appreciated. Been reading through various threads, seems the EGR blanking/bypass and de-catting the exhaust are popular mods and or improvements. I fitted a Synergy2a unit to my old Freelander TD4 and found it vastly improved the driveability, from what I'm...

Hi Looking for a bit of advice please, I used to be a Freelander owner but recently got rid of it (before the ridicule starts, no, I don't have boobs or run a mobile hairdressers!!!) been thinking about making the jump over here and treat myself to a Disco 2 TD5. Like the looks, think it'll...

Hello out there! I sold my TD4 Auto Sport a few months ago, pee'd off with £460 road tax!! I'm now looking for a TD4 manual, noticing alot of reasonably low mileage SE's are available, apart from not having the big wheels I can't really seen any differences. Anyone got any opinions on what...

I put a set of GT Radial Champiro HPY (235/50/ZR18 101Y XL) onto my sport 5 door about 1000 miles ago...... seem ok, quiet, grippy, not too bad in the snow, £115 each.

I had my 06 TD4 Auto Sport MOT'd last week, Synergy2 fitted and on 7, EGR bypass kit fitted - passed with no advisories or raised eyebrows from the tester.

I found the Haynes manual very usefull, changed a speaker last week without any dramas

Thanks Singvogal, job for tomorrow along with changing passenger side front door speaker if the ebay seller did his thing last week!

I agree with Singvogel above, I'm no mechanic and have very little experience "tinkering" with engines but after reading various threads on this forum and taking heed of any advice it gave me confidence to give it a go. Fitting an EGR bypass is simple, 4 allen bolts and a jubilee clip to...

I put a set of GT Radial Champiro HPY (235/50/ZR18 101Y XL) onto my TD4 Auto Sport about 500 miles ago, so far so good, appear to work well in all conditions including snow, quiet, comfortable and less than half the price of the Continental 4x4 Contacts they replaced, no complaints.

7 Pierberg MAF, EGR bypass, BMW crankcase breather mod, silicone intercooler hoses, all fitted last week after all filters and oil change. 06 TD4 Sport Auto thats now the car it should have been, even overtook something going uphill today!...... tempted to try setting 8 tomorrow!

I've just fitted a bypass today, the original from an 06 TD4 Sport is still on the garage floor, if your stuck tomorrow 'cause the next day delivery failed (as it usually does up here!) youre more than welcome to borrow it to get you home. I'm in Elgin only about 20 miles from you, if you need...
