Hi Gold Rover, sorry for the delay…….im getting around the issue using a Resler I-Bus module and the app that goes with it…..except I’m having an issue with the app reading my VIN number, problem with the car I think….not the module. Google Resler and check out You Tube vidoes about it…..just...

Hi to all, vehicle as in the title, decided to take out the old MFD & radio CD unit and replace with an Android head unit. Did some research to get over the can bus DSP problem and bought a Resler I-Bus module which plugged into a usb port on the head unit and works (in basic mode) perfectly...

Hi to all, I’ll keep this as short and factual as I can! HSE 2002 TD6 Exiting audio consisted of, Early slimline LCD display with small black plug connector marked ‘amp’. Single CD player mounted above display with single black cable (fibre optic?) and a large black plug with NO white or...

Thanks Ant, I’ll take a look as soon as I’m back from holiday in a couple of weeks…….i did think myself about it being perhaps an o ring in the valve blocks, but they all looked perfect when I stripped them down……but it never crossed my mind about a cracked unit…..excellent! Yes, I’ve had the...

Hi ‘Saint’ and thanks for responding……I’ll keep this as short and sweet as possible! TD6 2003 HSE. Air suspension issue…..in the course of sorting this out since I’ve bought it I have, Replaced a weak compressor, Replaced all four height sensors, Taken off and cleaned all of the block...

Hi Datatek and thanks for your advice……yes, I’m of the same thoughts myself about the ECU. I’ll check the battery voltage as you suggested and see what it is in the morning. Just to elaborate, mines a 2003 TD6…so basically an X5! I’ve actually bought an ECU for it (the white one) but I’ve heard...

Looks like a new OEM pump then.....cheers!!

Yes...sorry, new to this!

Hi Nodge68, many thanks for your reply....yes got to confess that I've bought these off eBay and I suppose you get what you pay for! Is it best to get a direct Land Rover OEM or can you recommend a good quality pump that is time proven. I meant to say in my original post that the car has been...

Hi, does anyone know if the integral fuel pump on the Freelander should run continuous? I have a 1998 model and I have now fitted THREE fuel pumps (with their filters) in the last four years. In the last week the car has started stuttering as I go through the gears and seems to lack power when...

Hi Rob_Bell, Thanks for the reply, no I didn't change the ecru with the engine....I should have guessed that could be an issue, I had a similar problem with my ML 270 last year, a box of tricks called an AAM gave up the ghost and I had a nightmare getting one, although I eventually did and...

Again many thanks, Ill try and get my hands on a dedicated code reader and take it from there, changing the speedo' head seems like the cheapest, easiest option to start with. Regarding code readers can you recommend any specific type? Cheers

Hi, many thanks......it crossed my mind that it might be that but before laying out money I just wanted to see what others thought. Is there anyway that I can test the head unit? Again many thanks for a prompt reply. Sorry meant to ask, are these prone to failure?

Hi to all, I've just signed up to this forum as it seems to be the best Landy one around! I'm hoping that someone out there can help. I have been given the above vehicle with a blown engine.....so replaced the lump, new fuel pump as the old one had seized and a new battery. Started it up and...
