If you jack it up the one with the knackered bearing the wheel might wobble around.

94 200TDI 186000 mile on the clock :) Bought off my best mate recently who had the engine rebuilt not long after he got it and running like a dream :)

Over the last week, ive cut out the boot floor to start cleaning up and painting with hammerite ready to replace with a nice shiny one at the weekend. Ive stripped and cleaned the handbrake replacing the expander, which had ceased and snapped the bit on the back for locking it against the drum...

I just had the boot door spring problem on mine, after a lot of frustration replacing it and putting all the push rods back in place with my sausage fingers i noticed somehow the key no longer turns anything. :( So ive got to rip it all apart again to see whats broken now! haha

Tried ebay? Theres a couple on there, not sure on your exact model but heres a couple i found - 2002 Landrover Freelander TD4 Turbo Turbocharger Rebuilt Refurbished | eBay Land Rover Freelander 2.0 TCIE Turbo | eBay

I have heard of this before, however ive been strongly recommended something called "comma diesel magic". Apparently it works wonders for the engine and can reduce emissions quite a bit for MOT's etc. I havnt got round to trying it yet but im sure i will before my next MOT. Halfords Comma...

Good advice haha, i started to peel back the carpet the other day and saw the road through the boot floor! :( going to have a proper look when i get home and make a start, the front wheel arches are a bit thin too haha.

Hi im Matt from bognor regis. ive just bought my first landy, a 93 Disco 1 2.5TDI :) I got it for cheap off a friend knowing it needs a bit of work, although not as bad as some ive seen! Im looking forward to getting it up and running and getting some offroad miles in! Nice to meet you all :)

The same happened to mine before i got it, the front left wheel locked up at about 60 down a country lane. Changed the bearings the other day and the inner one came out in like 100 pieces haha the only thing holding it straight was the remains of the brake pads!

One of my friends saw a cop giving somebody a telling off yesterday apparently for his "careless driving" the cop then got back in his car, drove off, hit the brakes and went into the back of some poor micra! haha

Hi, tried adding myself a few times but didnt show :( i might of accidentally moved some1 into the atlantic too.. sorry :) haha
