Just done my conversion after cleaning EGR valve previously. As we suspect "just" cleaning is better but... so I got bypass from Ebay. That guy is selling them for about £45, but on the question what material is using (as I don't want any cheap soft steel), he start threatening me with court as...

:welcome2: Test done by gazza666 Now is question to everyone able to do this test, can you write down the findings on the forum? For both rear wheels (one test for left and one test for right), so we can determine where the problem start to emerge.

...called London ;-) ps. that advert made me laugh... Toyota Hilux... Can you image the same situation with Freelander? :)

howardo: Most likely, this car was not design to work on the farmer's field and pull cow head's off (:hysterically_laughi), that's car with off road capabilities. Mainly to run on the road. Look at Defender's Central Diff or Disco's. Look at HDC, after going down hill a lot, your ABS may stop...

Hello Boyz, :D I had a conversation with guys from Birmingham; they do reconditioning of VCU's and we had a deep thoughts about why VCU is failing on a different car in different time: all is down to how often and how long you have to use VCU. If you are doing loads of tight turns (hello...

Ok, Great... Question is if this is an old type (Pasive Abs Sensor) or a new (Active Abs Sensor) as I think they have changed them from '01 or '02. Passive ones need a rolling test to work, active ones will start working soon after ignition being on. I think ;-)))...

I've got my Synergy 2 and fitting it took me a bit of time. Setting 10, MAF on (fortunately I've installed Pierburgh from Eurocarparts 8 months earlier, but didn't realised few things like a little bit different specs and lack of temp sensor, but it was working ok (Really?!)) and POWER on...

rocket: I'm not ;-)) and I know that this forum is very helpful. Mark2: Simple, because that's not my first language, as well as 3 others, but you got my point, right? Why I'm bothering myself? Or you? hmmm... dunno. ;) Too difficult to explain. Have a fun guys. end of subject. For you.

Last info from QED (and I did ask them precisely): "We offer a Remote thermostat housing for the 4 cyl engine but we never had a cooling problem with the V6. We stopped working with the engine because there was so little interest in it." Cavity here cavity there... Non NAS KV6 has so many small...

I don't want to redesign the engine, but as I can see from coolant flow schematic on non NAS models there are too many branches and this cause flow drop, especially on the top of the engine (that what one bloke found: if you rearrange flow from IRD and heater you have heat in the cabin strait...

JonFre: I have abuse in UK almost every single day. What makes me laugh is that people will not move their azz higher that they have to and prefer not to take any risks. Let the "other peeps" do the job and if they success they will take the credit too anyway. We are a one big and happy...

You missing the point again. I'm not rubbishing anyone's advices, but for someone who calling me tw@t i have no respect. First, none of you gave me any information about thermostat housing and pipe work and cooling or whatsoever - any technical information. What I've got is tw@t, burger and god...

Neither helpful nor funny. Thanks anyway. PS. I though I can have a conversation little more specific, more technical... but never mind, now I can see: The best way to solve problems is send away to the "others", problem is that the others will send you in the same place.. "the others peeps"...

Question: What is the most common problem with V6, can someone point out? and I talking about engine. Head Gasket Failure? any more?

Treworgey 90: Who give you right to judge someone on base of what he is questioning? I need a car apparently for a long time and apparently I have TD4 but what I can do but you don't, is ability to think out of the box. I love to experiment on things you simply won't understand. Is this make me...

heheheh. no I'm not in performance, but I want my V6 working as should be. ;-)

The problem I have is that I really like Freelander, the way they look. OK. maybe. What If you can cut out a bonnet or got additional breathers on the sides. Like all good sport cars. I know you want to have a car which just drive, but what if I want to have this car for a long time. Did you saw...

The Mad Hat Man: Hmmm... Lotus boys may not have interest in KV6. As I can see Series I (1997) was based on K1.8 with modified head and trough Series II (up to 2005), so the engine itself is not bad as much. Hot spots are eliminated mostly by running coolant after engine stopped, as well as when...

Everyone is crying about how the HGF is so common on 1.8 and KV6 2.5 (not so many),but there must be a reason (not one i presume) of all of that. 1.8 had crappy gasket from beginning, but that was changed on steel multi layered one plus there was on nylon pins if i remember exchanged to steel...

Did you ask yourself why? HG popping out 9 out of 10 because of problems with cooling am I right? Beside did you read that part about changing cooling system alone?
