Got the injectors out today. 1,3 & 4 popped out fairly easily with a flat bar on the plastic cover to support my pry-bar. Number-2 needed my slide hammer pictured above, but eventually came out. Took all the tips off, and cleaned them out so... -
Freddie17 replied to the thread Help freelander td4 cut out and wont start.Aside from the few sensors mentioned, you really need to get the codes/live data - you can throw parts at it if you like, but really you need to diagnose the issue.

Freddie17 replied to the thread Freelander 1 Sourcing VCU.Sue will definitely have VCU’s and IRD’s, along with diffs or whatever else you want to get if you choose to replace. They’ll all be either new parts or recon’d correctly, but like I say, they won’t be cheap. They replaced my VCU and rear diff...

These are power-hungry vehicles and anything over 4/5 years old likely won’t cut it. A duff battery can cause all sorts of issues with these...

I have the feeling you want something that doesn't exist, also no one sits at 85mph on the motorway anymore if you want to keep their licence. 200tdi will sit on the motorway at 70mph no problem. Now you don't want diesel as its too slow, you...
