    Thanks, did what you said and it's definitely coming from the strut. Is something I can do repair myself or should I take it to a garage?

    The steering is rack and pinion. The Power steering fluid reservoir is on drivers side engine bay. Squeaking is most likely suspension top bearings, on top of strut. Have a good listen while someone turns the wheel. Steering boxes went out of...

    Would someone be able to point me in the direction of the steering box on a freelander 1. My steering is very squeaky and I want to top up the oil to see if it makes a difference.

    I recently changed the regulator on mine. It's fine to do yourself but you need to take out the starter motor (and watch the crank sensor directly underneath he starter motor). If you don't you will try to undo the two Torx screws (T30) from...

    Thank you for help, sorry for the late reply. I will try to do this myself. I do have a new problem thought and wondered if it might be related. The freelander has started to lose power when going uphill when more power is needed. This is the...

    I paid £2765 for it, with 75000 miles on it. I thought that was quite reasonable. If I can I'll do the pressure regulator myself. I just need to make sure I'm changing the right part and buying the right part for it. I found 1 online which I...

    When I brought it it was advertised as a freelander 2, I didn't realise that freelander 2 meant mk2. I know it's definitely a mk1. Will I need to take it in to the garage then or is this something I can do myself.

    Thank you for this but I believe my freelander is a mk1. I think I read somewhere that the fuel filter on my model is behind o/s rear wheel arch

    When I turn it over the 1st time it tries to start, it gets to 500 revs then cuts out. As soon as I do it the 2nd time it starts fine. As for the clearance, I didn't realise that was a thing

    I've got no warning lights on and I've put an obd2 machine on it which didn't have any coded. I just didn't want to have to take it in to the garage

    I recently brought a 2006 freelander 2 TD4. Everything was fine for first few days until it had a problem starting. Once the car is up and running and warm it won't start properly. It won't kick it to life on the first try, just cuts out but...
