50CC!!! Can you please tell me where you bought that external temperature guage you have fitted into the slot where the ashtray goes?? Its just what im looking for - I clicked the link you supplied but its expired :mad: Id be very greatful if you could let me know.

Hi guys, Bought a replacement clock for the hippo cos of the missing digits on my old one.. The clock i had previously was a 8 pin clock that displayed time/radio station/cd track etc.. Got a 4 pin on out of a 02 plate freelander, but the display is smaller and it only has 4 pins on the...

Thanks chaps for all your advice... top stuff as always! Looks like its an overwhelming YES to the synergy, so my hippo is in for a treat and as ill give rover ron a bell tomorrow! How long does it take to fit, and is it relaitively straightforward?? I imagine i have to tell my insurance...

Nice touches ferryjambo... Original LR parts that def enhance your hippos look.. Its def made me consider the black LR badges for my epsom green hippo.. Fleabay i presume you got the badges from?

For the love of god men... HELP ME!!!! The noise is back!! Ive had the brakes stripped down by my mate (who services 4x4's for a living) more than 3/4 of the meat are still left on the pads, the discs have no rust/**** on em, there is copper grease on the back of the pads facing the pistons...

Thanks Hippo - top advice as always! Anyone else had experience of the synergy box?

Hi dave, Same question as goughy.. has your MPG taken a hit? And how much each were they? My MOT is up at the end of sept, and my front left may well be an advisory as it looks a bit shallow.. Im well tempted to get some A/T's (especially with winter on the horizon and maybe bad weather)...

Right peeps, I want to stick a synergy mod on my L series hippo... Need all you clued up land rover bods to tell me the following 1) does it give you that much more power & or Torque? 2) Does your fuel consumption take a dive? I would also like anyone on here to leave a comment on here if...

Tanky, Check the connectors under the seat/ seatbelts first. If they are ok, for the love of god, take it to someone who has a fulat code reader and plug it in.. DO NOT go to the mean stealers... erm, i mean dealers :D They can try and reset it for you (shouldnt cost more than £20 in a good...

Wheel, you'll need one for every door.. ie 1 for the drivers side front, and 1 for the drivers side rear. My drivers front AND passenger front door went not so long back.. I found i did the passenger side in 35 mins, but the drivers door was more fiddly and took me just under an hour.. If...

Get one thats serviced regularly and thats a good start. Ive Got a 2000 XEDi, and the only problem ive had so far was an injector washer that cost £20. Its a fab compromise... It drives like a car on the road, does about 37mpg combined, is comfortable spacious & practical. It also...

Marky, Ive PM'd you mate. :D

Well guys, Looks like freelance was the closest... Jacked her up, took pads out, only to find they werent even worn down to the halfway point.. Cleaned em up, put em back in (with some copper grease on the back ;)) but noticed that there was crap and a bit of corrosion on the outside edge...

Hi Wheel, :welcome2: This is a common problem on freelanders, and is a result of faulty lock solonoids. They can be picked up for about £30 each on ebay, and take about an hour per side to fit.. It is fiddly, so youll need a few cups of tea and some patience. Do a search on here for...

Marky, I want to do the same in mine.. Have you got the console?? If so can you nlet me know how much you want for it? Just tried fleabay, but no joy Ill have it off you if its still going???

If you've had no joy with the connectors, youre gonna need a fault code reader on it.. Could give disconnecting the battery for half an hour a go, but you'll probably need to do the above on it..

Chromimuk, Thanks for that advice.. It all makes sense when you explain it like that. Will make sure that the tyres that are on the back now, go onto the front and that i have 2 new tyres (of the same make) on the back. Ian - i would ordinarily pay for the 4 at the same time, but it seems...

Hello friends, MOT is soon due on my hippo (30th Sept). Had it since the start of feb and its faulless so far! I need advice on tyres as this is my first ever 4x4 and ive seen different threads on here with all types of different advice. My hippo came with 4 matching Nexen CP641 classe...

Cheers Fur Trapper, That was my first thought too... Guess what, its still raining in south wales!! But, hold your breath - we MAY have a dry day here tomorrow (not bad for august) :rolleyes: Ill be jacking her up tomorrow for a good inspection.. Got some copper grease ready incase its not...

Glebo, Take it easy friend - its only alittle bit of banter!! liefes to short!! Anyhow, everyones different, and if you want a outside temp sensor, then you can easily fit one - although theres no factory fit one from LR. As riverside says, you can source nice quality units almost...
