Аn ordinary bulb from a lantern (12 volts) and a piece of wire would be enough.

500 kilometers on the odometer again, refueling again and a full tank. 50 liters! So I have 10 liters per 100 kilometers. It remains a mystery what exactly affected the fuel consumption - the cardan was removed or the gas station was changed?

Аbout a week ago, the battery charge light came on. But I didn’t have time to take the car to the masters, so for several days, after the working day, I charged the battery from the charger) eventually found time and made an appointment. At 9⁰⁰ I brought the car, at 11⁰⁰ I got a call that it was...

Today I "trimmed the wings" of my Freelander. As I thought - the noise came from the suspension bearings. I know exactly what fits from Ford Transit and katsapian GAZelle (Volga 33029, etc.) I also plan to give the viscous coupling for restoration. And while it's summer, Freel will ride on his...

Thank you! I understand that driving style also affects fuel economy as well as city/highway. In this case, I decided to change the gas station. According to sensations, the car drove faster, or is it a placebo effect))) I will look at the fuel consumption. The lack of sound in the front door...

Full tank again. So, for 500 kilometers, my Hippo consumed 56.4 liters of diesel. considering that he passed half of this way outside the city - his appetite is huge. I think there may be some problems with the engine. By the way, about the engine. many people noticed a sensor on the intake pipe...

Topic up!) I am considering installing an original Harman Kardon audio system in my car. Please send me your price in a private message. Thank you.

Check the battery during start-up or borrow it from someone is working (or connect to a starter-charger) and try to start from it. Diesel does not need 10 frail revolutions. one is enough but powerful.

Try spraying "quick start" (carburetor cleaner, polish, brake cleaner, ether, etc.) into the air duct. If the problem is low compression, it is necessary to start. Next, monitor how the engine will work

Before climbing to the solenoids, I watched several videos. for some reason, everyone unscrews and moves aside the heat exchanger of the box itself. I still didn't understand. just unscrewed the oil drain plug from it and voila. So I changed all the solenoids, then I decided that it would be...

Я не впевнений на 100%, чи це було саме так, але машина їхала і поки що без проблем.

For about a month, Freel drove like gold, without a single stutter or crankiness (almost 700 km), but then he limped again. decided to go all-in and replace all the solenoids. It ain't cheap ( the solenoids themselves cost $450 For their replacement, all workshops (as agreed) asked for 4000 UAH...

45 liters per 350 km it is (45/3.5) 12,86 liter per 100 km 12,86/4.54 = 2.83 Imperial gallon on 100 km 100km/1.61 =62.1 miles 62.1miles /2.83 Imperial gallon= 21.95 miles on 1 Imperial gallon.

thanks for the replies guys. in fact, now my fuel consumption is 45 liters per 350 km, I saw the miles per gallon in the converter, so it is difficult to answer what this measure is) I recently installed a Renault thermostat. maybe you're right and fuel consumption will improve. I will watch...

who has a Td4 fuel consumption? i get 18 mpg.... automatic transmission, driving 100% city, but it seems to be too much.
