    testing for bent valves?

    The timing belt on my freelander 1.8 from 1998 has snapped. It supposedly went quite undramatic when starting with load on the hook - I was not in the car myself!

    Rear wheel bearing replacement

    I did it last year, and I had a lot of trouble getting the lang bolts out - but succeeded using a lot of heat on them. I also spend more time then I like to admit on getting the ABS sensors out. Ended figuring out, yhat I could just release the connection right under the wheel arch and work on...

    Overheating 1.8, help?!

    Once you locate it - it is not that hard to get to with an extension. I think its a 8mm nut. You should bleed this one first since its located lower then the other bleed screw (the plastic one on the rubber pipe).

    What have you done to your Freelander today

    Replaced ird pinion seal due to a leak. I think that the problem might have been, that the pinion nut had come loose, but changed the seal and tighten the nut while I was at it. Also replaced both front drive shafts. The car jused to have a vibration at around 100 km/h - now it runs smooth......

    Help needed please

    The lower point of the pipe (inlet to the pipe) goes from a rubber tube in front of the battery and the outlet on the pipe goes on to the middle of the air cleaner. You can see (part of) the pipe below on the picture to the left - just in front of the battery tray.
