    Unable to bleed brakes (SOLVED) - Custom Brake Thread

    Yeah I was going to do this, but if this doesn't work I have a feeling I will have another spin off thread about custom Proportional Valves on this car too :mad: 😂 No biggie! Thank you for checking

    Good thinking, though I just installed new stainless steel Pioneer ones from Muddy Mods :(

    Unable to bleed brakes (SOLVED) - Custom Brake Thread

    @andyfreelandy I don't suppose you have any Proportioning Valves from the Freelander laying around? It could be the valves in there are failing and letting air move around? Honestly grasping at straws here 😂

    Unable to bleed brakes (SOLVED) - Custom Brake Thread

    No ABS module on mine, only part I have not really replaced / inspected is the Bias valve, I wonder if air could get trapped in there? I've tried to bleed it with both a pressure bleeder that I run at about 20 PSI constantly and using the foot brake 2 person method but the pedal feels like...

    Unable to bleed brakes (SOLVED) - Custom Brake Thread

    Well here we are again! :mad: News is news, still thought I'd update here. My thought with the lack of pedal was seized caliper guide pins, which after taking off both calipers, 2 of 4 were incredibly seized and 1 mildly seized, the last one was fine and worked as expected. The 2 seized...

    What have you done to your Freelander today

    Manged to replace the front calipers in hopes that fixes the lack of brake pedal... 3 of 4 guide pins were seized but yet after removal clean and reassembly the brakes still super spongy... there'll be more explaining in my dedicated thread :rolleyes: I'll be down for the meet still maybe...

    What have you done to your Freelander today

Only noticed when I unlocked the drivers door went to open the bonnet because its a land rover at heart and proceeded to wake up the whole neighbourhood as I...

    ignore thread please

    It would be best for the optimal ignoring, however, I keep it there to ensure others are ignoring including myself! Doh!

    Freelander 1 Front brake squeal

    Seems they want it facing the front of the car... beats me as to why, but I'd go with what they say, they manufacture them after all, not me 😂

    ignore thread please

    Nice to be recognised for my hard work! Better get some sleep so I can continue ignoring...

    Freelander 1 Front brake squeal

    So to clarify the disc in the picture (provided it is not flipped) I would fit to the offside.

    Freelander 1 Front brake squeal

    Well aren't the slopes there for water displacement as well as heat dissipation? I would in that case follow the way car and motorcycle tyre tread considering they rotate in the same direction. So to the rear of the car would make sense to me 🤷‍♂️ Thinking about it in a purely logical way...

    Indeed both me and the car are abs-less :mad: I'll be with it this weekend, along with checking the front caliper guide pins too so will check this and report back :)

    Unable to bleed brakes (SOLVED) - Custom Brake Thread

    I haven't checked them no, but they've been replaced with stainless steel ones from pioneer so I should imagine they are fine. The hand brake had been a little weird, it seems very... tight, when I drive with it off sometimes going over bumps causes the handbrake light to come on and the hand...

    Unable to bleed brakes (SOLVED) - Custom Brake Thread

    Following up with this again. I bled the master again, which admittingly made it a little better, but still when the engine is off (Brake booster now works) the pedals goes hard but is incredibly spongy! I cannot work it out!!! I have replaced almost everything! I am starting to think either...

    Unable to bleed brakes (SOLVED) - Custom Brake Thread

    Anyone got any thoughts on this? I didn't remove the master cylinder to a point where brake fluid comes out, but maybe with the moving it around I need to bleed the master again?

    Unable to bleed brakes (SOLVED) - Custom Brake Thread

    Welp. I replaced the brake booster and it's worse... Now the first 7/8th of the pedal has no resistance and it won't build pressure, I tried to adjust what looks like an adjuster screw in the brake booster but it has not worked, when the engine is off the brake pedal becomes noticeably better...
