Confused about the tyre pressures, I have been running at 32psi and in less 8k fronts have completely worn the middle tread away! 30psi looks not enough! Have looked through previous threads but no one seems to agree, some running at 38psi??

Thank you :) Will measure in morning but might just buy the four TBH :)

Damn! Just ordered two new Michelins for the front, as worn. Good job I checked as had it my head new tyres went to front! So shall I get the new michelins put on back and the wranglers put on front..... or just get him to order me two more michelins? Very paranoid about this as made the...

Fab will have a look on there, Garage (supplied it) has offered to fit it for free if I get the part, but I will look for the guides to fitting as its about time I started to learnhow to fix the blinking thing! Rear window has packed in today so Freelander is back in the doghouse.... If only I...

Um, I think your right there.. Think I'd rather a higher mileage well maintained one anyday :)

Excellent.... Thank you..... I imagine the replacement one wasn't a Landrover part as it is noisy (when it works!). Will get the garage onto it soonest :)

Thanks for that will check it out :):)

How sweet of you to say :rolleyes:

So my beloved Freelander has a fault! Noooooo...... :rolleyes: Wouldn't start the other month so garage guy came out tapped the fuel pump (under/behind drivers side rear wheel arch), it whirred into life and it started... No probs til this morning when it did the same, so opened fuel cap to...

Well, didn't quite go to plan! Now the proud owner of a 5dr 03 TD4 Serengeti! - But its a Freelander so I'm happy again :)

;) Just to let everyone know I've politely told them I dont want the car:D. Thanks everyone for your help and comments. So after Chasers advice am now looking for a nice well looked after TD4 SE Auto in November.... Will let you know how I get on....:)

Ok, will look for an Auto SE then if its more upto the job. Probably a stupid question whats FBH?? Thanks for all your advice.:):)

Thanks everyone for your help, starting to think I will walk away... So as I am now possibly offering a good home to a Freelander, what do you recommend spec wise. Definatley want a TD4 SE minimum, but is Auto or Manual better. The one I had before was Auto and it was fab (it did have its...

Thats a good point about the interior and paintwork being a constant reminder. The question now is will the imperfections drive me batty (quite likely) or not! To be honest discs, pads, tyres and the exhust didnt concern me it and the others as single problems probably wouldn't either - its...

Um I know! Can't understand how a low milege 6 yo car is in such a state!
