On a completely different subject, I began the task if replacing the brake cables on the TD4... So far have only done some preliminary preparation as..... 1. The fastenings underneath the car needed going over with lubricant/freeing agent and a wire brush 2. I managed to 'break off' the...

The last hamster I had got stuck... Now it is an 'X Hamster'...is that what you mean...? Concerned... Marbella.. (but on holiday in Scotland...awaiting hospital appointment...or two... :-S)

Well, today I did soemthing I should have bpdine back in July i.e. Change the two interccoler hoses that I was too lazy to do when I did the rest back then. Why today? I hear you ask(although I know I'm probably t alking to myself) Well, the ex and my daughter had mentioned that there was a...

I concur regards everything said above.....albeit 4 days after the fact. Nodge, thanks for the reply on my post. Funnily enough have been having internet issues both in Spain and now at my sisters in Scotland....I blame TFLS and his North Korean Cyber Army but lets not go down that road...only...

Wullie, Just reading your comment regards your problem. My TD4 has several running issues that crop up from time to. time and have seen that you 'striped out', clean and replaced your 'fuel pressure regulator harness'. Was that a relatively easy job and how long did it take? Any issues you...

Nodge, Does that mean my 'Harmon Kardon' speakers in the HSE TD4 are only that in name and the same as a lowly SE (albeit a 2.5V6)....Mine do vibrate a bit in the drivers door..think a previous owner has been listening to 50Cent?

Didn't do this today but the night before last(been travelling since) So, a couple of days back I go to remove some presents from the rear of the TD4. The rear door clicked but wouldn't open. Diagnosis, window stuck to door rubber because of ice (-3 degrees)...Standard stuff I guess. Any way...

Yes, online I have not had an issue TBH but I called the 'Tax a Car' service and everything seemed to go through very smoothly. Charged my account etc. Certainly a LOT quicker that insuring the car which I had to do before hand. Think that took about 40 minutes? 'Anyhoo' I'm sure it will be...

Thanks for the advice...I'm very much the same regards their online efficiency stuff....when I recount this to my 'foreign' friends they think I'm 'full of it' but the truth is, this is the first issue I have ever had. Don't think Identity theft is an issue unless, by some freak of nature I...

Hello Land Rover Freaks Okay, 'What have I done to my Land Rover Today' is another thread but I thought I would just check my vehicles tax status 'online' only to find that my Landy isn't taxed. Now, funnily enough, when I bought it I insured it and taxed it before leaving the 'vendors'...

To make sure your 'new' key works you need to ensure that the 'functioning' key is no where near the ignition barrel. Best left in the house, then try to start the car. Usually these 'chips' need to be close(from 1 cm to 15 cm) from the induction ring within the ignition barrel for them to work...

Cheers...

Is there an EGR delete for FL2's? My ignorance is quite large. Think your EML may 'ignite' if you fit one but there may be a remap?/reprogramme available to switch that off? Let us know..

Welcome to the Fuel Burning Heater Club, had a similar experience a 'wee while ago' when ours 'kicked in' it was abit of a surprise as I didn't know we had one....put on the straight and narrow after posting a photo of the 'exhaust'. One can never have enough crazy options on ones FL1 and...

One other thing..... When you went to restart the car.....remember that the fuel system will need to completely 'repressurise'/charge or whatever you call it. When I removed the pump and changed the filter on my daughters TD4 it took the car quite some time to restart. It may have ran a bit...

Ty Modur, This to me something really basic........ Despite your assurances that you have reconnected everything ( I believe you have ) you need to get back under the hood etc and treble check everything methodically and systematically. When you removed the cam cover/airbox did you disconnect...

ScottyDave, It looks like you are being dealt a hard lesson by these 'mechanics' and that is unfortunate. Just recap on what symptoms you are suffering from, please? As mentioned above, a simple test regards the MAF would be to unplug it(once the car has been started) and take it for a drive...

It's an obvious ploy that, once you get the car running properly, you have to fix the windows that stop working, the sunroof that won't open but leaks when it rains and figure out how to open and fix the rear door......all designed to keep you off the street corners at night...GENIUS!!

I heard that they all borrowed it from Uncle 'Wink'... He was never any good at wiring.....
