Cheers for reply buddy. Ah I see, well this is for my ATs/winter tyres where I prefer less wheel and more tyre! My road tyres are 235/65/17 and going to 235/70/16 for the ATs so pretty much the same diameter (2mm) difference. Thanks for help buddy I’ll ensure the tyre fitters know to put on the...

Hi, I have a 2007 2.2 TD4 FL2. Just bought 16 inch wheels for it to fit some Maxxis Worm drives. Is this a bit tight for the caliper to wheel distance? The wheel balance weights rub slightly but can get them moved. Does anyone else have 16 inch wheels on their FL2?

no worries dude I’m in same position as you!

Hello again, if you’re interested this Freelander 2 is being broken, I’ve emailed the seller and he is selling the roof rails for £70. I’m not sure they’ll fit mine as it has two sunroofs so I’m not going to buy these. Thought I’d make you aware though...

cheers mate.

Thanks for you reply, hmm understood. That’s a shame though but yet I might have to do the same. Sam

Hi all, had a gap of land rover ownership for about 6 months and its been a bleak time! I have just bought an FL2, can’t wait to get it. It doesn’t have the OEM roof bars, which I would much prefer. Does anyone recommend any of the cheaper brands as the land rover ones are quite expensive? And...

Hi there mate that’s fab thanks, do you know where abouts it connects to the IRD? I’m hoping that I can be this back on Without removing everything again lol

Hi there does anyone know how I can re connect this!? It’s removal seems to coincide with the loss of my brakes ! It feel like some kind of vaccummy type part. Sam

Re inflated the tyres !

All sorted now guys, all back together, the engine seems to not be leaking so clearly the turbo drain pipe! I however seem to have created a brake problem, but that’s another story for another thread if it comes to it!! Thanks Again for you help. Edit: brakes sorted banjo bolt has become loose...

Ah you should see the oil spill now after all the effing about today, It’s horrendous, I will literally just turn my flags upside down I think. But yes looks like same problems as yours definitely. Sam

Update here, turned into a bit of a bugger of a job had to call in a mechanic / mate to assist. We just couldn’t get the leverage with those exhaust nuts through the wheel arch, they were so badly seized. In the end we removed IRD to get better access. I’m fairly certain we found the culprit, I...
