FLASH BAND Steve's here :p:p He knows his 300's too he's trying to sort me out and I am listening... thanks for the welding job in the boot too ;) Josh

For some reason I seem to be struggling like mad bleeding this TD4 clutch its almost like there's no enough pressure behind the pedal (although there is a bit of pressure) to release the clutch to get it in gear, its had a new clutch and slave cylinder recently and I've done the master cylinder...

Cheers Joe.. I don't own a Haynes manual on the rave manual and as you said there's nothing in there on this... I have ordered a new master but I'll try your way of bleeding it first if not I'll try the new master before splitting the gear box from the engine again because as you said the slaves...

It's nothing to do with the colour why I didn't quite like it after the paint shop to be honest I love the colour combination, I just think it's because it's go no windows etc in on that picture. Although as I said before its growing rapidly on me and also I can imagine it finished with the...

Hmmm interesting... yes Id say your totally mad, I'm not right keen on the picture after the paint shop although this project of yours is growing on me and I cant wait to see it finished. Good luck with it!!

Cheers for that bit of advice Dave... after work I went out and bought a one way valve pipe for a whopping £1.50 which i thought wasn't bad at all.. I bled it though, I used a small fruit shoot bottle which I cleaned and dried out to stop any contamination I put two bottles worth though making...

Sorry Alibro I forgot to mention what was changed... Yes the slave was changed. No airs coming out when bleeding fluid is shooting out

Hi All, I've just built the car back up after changing the clutch and replacing it with a solid DMF conversion its the freelander 1 TD4 on a 03 plate so it haves the bleed-able hydraulics. I started bleeding the clutch up and with no luck it wouldn't go in to gear with the engine running and...

Yes I'll try and get it in a step by step guide... I best take some pictures as I put her back together!!

I've never really got it anywhere other than the bumpers lol but yes probably could stain!

Try shoe polish it's better than back to black, I use it on bumpers

Another quick update on this... I'm glad the IRD came off in the end i had a slight coolant leak which i have found, its a little hole on the oil cooler plate at first i thought i caught it but i cant have done because its not squashed

Great little tutorial there ceffyn, simple but effective and will hopefully make people think before going out and buying new seen as we seem to becoming a throw away society. I'm certainly no green piece lover I just like looking after my money and this is a saving!

Yeah I'd defiantly try fuel lines first and probably one of your cheapest option they cost me £18 and took a hour or so... If you do fuel lines just bypass the sediment there useless pieces of poo and are pointless being there I know the defender 300tdi they didn't bother with them. Josh

Yeah luckily there's the paint man who attends all the LR shows and he's around 12 miles away from me so I'll be using him for the RAF grey/blue!

I'm well into it Nodge68 and the IRD had to come off in the end which I'm happy about because I found my leak on coolant I had it's got a little hole in the heater transfer plate on the IRD so it looks like a new one!!

I had a similar problem it's turned out to be getting air in the fuel so I renewed the fuel lines as they had joins in them and bypassed the sediment filter... It worked a treat but now the lift pumps knacked so I'm fitting an electric one soon!

Thanks guys I'm definitely getting that IRD off I didn't think or struggling to get the two splines to meet up afterwards I just wanted one less thing to lift back up as I am doing it on the drive all off my back which does become a pain in its self... Thanks GrumpyGel for that link I'm...

Looks amazing that, I can't wait to get stuck into my old 1974 S3 ex RAF project... I'm loving the paint job you've done too I was thinking of roller painting mine but thought it would come up rubbish now I've seen this I'm defiantly getting that roller out!

I agree with kwakerman go for more visible security what will put them off and it's "too long of a job" removing it all to pinch... Even if you do a hidden switch give them 10 minutes to pop the bonet and run a live feed to the solenoid and starter and there away. You could always shell out and...
