    Freelander 2 (LR2) Diesel Leak when I fill the tank.

    If it’s ‘only’ leaking when you fill up (and engine off I assume?), then to me it would suggest it’s not related to the return side, so presumably something on the fill side. There is a vent pipe, but that would only vent air out. Maybe in the main filler pipe? Wouldn’t be messing around on the...

    Freelander Starting Problem

    I agree that it sounds like the immobiliser is not allowing the car to start, for whatever reason. If you have tried the obvious (new battery in fob / spare key / all fuses etc), then my next ‘easy’ check would be the actual car battery. The F2 is power-hungry and a less-than-good battery can...

    Did you buy a new reservoir? There is a small filter fitted in it - if it’s not been changed for a good time, it’s worth switching it for a new one when you change the fluid.

    Mintex front disc pads part number ?

    Well yes - I imagine most places use fairly generic photos for thing like brake pads, rather than taking lots of individual photos of very similar-looking boxes and items.

    Being road biased, they will be quieter. Be interesting to see how they get on

    7 litres is too much. They take just under 6 when drained, IIRC. I think 6.8 for a dry fill. You’ll need to remove some. It’s about 1 litre between min and max on the dipstick.

    I loosen from below with a flex spanner, then working from above - unscrew by hand and remove upwards. You can just get it through.

    I take it out from above… loosen, let it drip, then lift out.
