Hi chaps, Closed my drivers door earlier then next time I opened it the plastic tweeter bit of trim fell off and just hung from the cables, I cant get it back on without it falling off but dont see any clips or anything to click it back into place??? Anyone have an idea of how these are...

Thanks pal, as for haynes manual the one I have is for the td4 engine if you look on ebay there are a few for sale cheap. I got mine for £9 which I think is quite a bargain :)

Ok bought a haynes manual for the motor, so will squiz through that and try and do any of the easyish diy stuff should it arise. Since posting this thread I have driven my hippo quite alot to and from work and also in heavy traffic in edinburgh city centre and I have been very impressed with...

Ok maybe I was a little harsh before maybe due to frustration and being worried that I was getting screwed over! :) I have used it alot in last couple of days and especially in this terrible weather and if I am honest it has been excellent now that its fixed. Maybe I will learn to love it...

This was a independent car dealership and not a LR dealer that I bought it from but anyway its all fixed now and finance company are satisfied that it's now up to proper standard so I am stuck with it now! Lol Its a td4 automatic that I have, would never have even considered a petrol as that...

Hi guys, My front grab handles on either side are worn down to the black plastic, they are the goldish coloured handles. Does anyone know where is the best place to buy replacement ones or are they easy to removed so that thry can be repainted? ? I would also like to do the matching...

Well the dealership never prepped it properly which is ridiculous as they were going to check it over completely before I picked it up and do a full service with 6 months tax and a years mot. They put it through an mot and passed it when it should have failed so I am going to report mot...

Indeed I do have the "bleddy" thing now and finance company have now put case as resolved now that dealer has fixed the issues I had with motor from purchase which shouldn't have been there when it was sold to me. Faults it had were - hard starting when cold and horrific rough idle until it...

Hi there and welcome to the forum, Personally I would recommend that you buy something else rather than a freelander tbh, I myself have just bought one 3 weeks ago and its been a pain in the arse! Mines has a great service history and is in excellent overall condition but its been in and...

Its a td4 2004 model, the thing has been a pain in the hole since I got it 3 or so weeks ago! Lol As for the few that say get a disco, I did used to have one about 5 years ago and was on this forum a lot. Cant remember what my old user name was mind you lol! The disco was fab during my...

Evening chaps, Finally got the freelander fixed after much arguments with finance company and dealership, it now seems to start and idle alot better and feel generally smoother but I still don't trust it and having joined this forum again but this time as a hippo owner I cant really see me...

Well the plan is to take to my local specialist as per finance companies advice however I am not wanting to have to pay for all of this to be done. I have a 2004 td4 auto with 105k on clock just so you all know. Still cant believe that guy in garage said its an old motor with high mileage...

Yeah I know that they are liable for up to 6 months but they have basically said that they are unable to fix it and are relying on me to use the warranty I was given with car at another garage to get issues resolved. I have been on the phone to the finance company and they have asked that I...

If that's the case its quite a big and time consuming job then?

Its now obvious that they are not a good garage now. :(

The head has to come off?? What do you mean?

Pass mate, surely if it was as easy as that then they would have replaced them?

Evening chaps, I am having bother with my freelander td4 after 2 weeks of ownership, its struggling to start and idling rough when cold plus I am getting a noticible high pitch whine when driving up the revs. Its been into garage where I bought it from and they say they have checked out...

Hi folks, Just bought a 2004 freelander td4 automatic on Saturday and overall it has been fine however since buying it I have had issues with lumpy or rough starting in the morning and on a couple of occasions it has cut out completely. It always starts though but sometimes harder to get...

Hi guys, I am back after a 4-5 year absence, I cant remember what my old username was however i used to have a discovery which I loved but the mrs made me get rid! I now have a 2004 freelander td4 and I am glad to be back, not alot seems to have changed on here which is a good thing! :)...
