Ive got some pics I want to upload of my modification to the shower cover any suggestions how I do this? im on a pc " i know im being a bit thick here"

Wow thankyou for the info, I will go back and have a look to confirm but... as the dashcommand has two readings one of which is the MAP which tops about 220kpa and another giving boost pressure. Whats confusing is the haynes manual stating the turbo max boost is 1.75 bar which is 25psi give or take

Thanks for the reply HD3, anyone else with any figs for comparison?

hmm sounds like mine is under boosting then as I am only getting 15-16psi im using dash command

Does anyone know what a healthy TD4 turbo boost pressure would be? Ive done the searches but no luck :confused:

didnt get chance to check last night as missus went out in it! ---- Englishbullterrier did the remap guys who did your FL rolling road it to confirm figures? it was one of the to do list for meto check what my tuning box was actually doing

actuaaly im not quite sure what my tuning box is TBH im gonna check tonight when I get home. I dont think its a synergy though. Maybe the cheaper ones arent quite so good?

Looks like the thrust bearing rubber has deteriated a bit, I also had a few little lumps come out of mine the fluid also looked a bit like coca cola! but without the bubbles.... Just to add aswell I couldnt actually engage my gears at all when I went on a long journey but when the engine cooled...

TBH so long as the engine is in tip top ie: no boost leak / injectors working well / good oil / clean intercooler / VCU in good condition the TD4 should pull a 1.5t caravan no problems - trust me ive towed mine to Italy and back at speeds you shouldnt do ( at one point had a little race with a...

Thanks guys gotta say towing the caravan was really easy the car was steady as a rock, i wasnt hanging about either! This is my third freelander and this one is the best ive had. If towing i would recommend putting spring assisters on the back it makes the ride quite hard but certainly helps...

With all the doom and gloom here on the forum about what goes wrong I would just like to let everyone know if you at all interested that my 70k TD4 sport made my monumental journey for meanyways around France and into Italy towing my 1.5t caravan in 30c+ heat! It did about 23mpg with the aircon...

Your VCU is worn it needs replacing fella, when you have a new / recon VCU the car drives a bit more like mondo mode I drove me sport mondo for a while and loved it and put prop back on for snow

sounds like a good place to go to experiance is so valuable. I may need them as going past Annecy with my caravan in August!

I have just cured a similar issue with mine more predominant when slowed down and stopped and accelerate away the car would hesitate almost stall and get an engine wobble. I replaced the turbo filter which was only a couple of pounds, replaced the top turbo intercooler hose which had the...

thanks singvogel, ive just read the thread I know I should have done a search but was getting in the flow of things :D

hmm thinking about it for about a day I was muckin about in the snow so would guess that hasnt helped, and I am assuming 25 miles for the yellow light but maybe more in it.... How much have people managed to get out of their tank when fuel warning light has come on?

By my calculations assuming the Freelander tank is 60 litres or 13.19 imp gallons if I was to get 380 to a tank full would this equate to 28.8mpg? Thats what Im getting for FL but that is hard driving on a motorway for 150 miles and short journeys 1-6miles sound about right?

mine a TD4 sport manual 3dr, love towing with it with the harder suspension feels very solid on the road, great in the snow very capable,take the roof off and you have a convertible chuck four bikes on the roof and three of the back no problems.... I dont do any greenlaning anymore but did with...

I would guess having a worn VCU would push up the MPG due to drag....? Im certainly finding my TD4 sport especially frugal these days after I changed my VCU
