    Freelander 1 Oil Cooler

    Done, Ordered from UK to deliver to mum's I went for the 50 quid one from DMGRS In case anyone else has problems ordering online from them as well, I could only get it to work by using the Paypal button on the screenshot below. Clicking the CHECKOUT button didnt work, neither for the...

    Freelander 1 Oil Cooler

    Thanks I think that @Arctic2 's last link uses the part number to make in non-vehicle-specific? Although I knew it was a BMW, I didnt know the td4 was a M47R, it was the 185 HP? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BMW_M47#M47TUD20

    Freelander 1 Oil Cooler

    But ..... Motormaquina can only get Britpart from UK, so with customs its 200 quid (probably plus 23% VAT - I didnt ask) Bugger! Welcome to my 'relaxed' life in the Sun :cool:

    Apparently this is the place here in Portugal https://www.motormaquina.com/ For anyone breaking down near Lisbon or Porto (or elsewhere in PT) And a great Freelander specialist just south of here is Nuno Sousa who is a great guy and a great mechanic - contacts and translations on request : )

    VCU Torque test results

    Thanks I completely understand just using this as a comparative test - I was just curious I did my own spreadsheet: analysis from the data from around your link If speed was simply proportional to the torque the power of x in the below would have been -1, but its not. Interestingly (for a geek...

    Thanks, that is cheaper than I imagined but coming from UK means PT customs who are W@nkers Anyone coming to Lisbon soon for holidays? :)

    Freelander 1 Oil Cooler

    Thanks! The Haines FL book says take out starter and radiator but looking at it I am not sure if necessary. I am probably wrong. I will try and cost/source a new cooler anyone got any advice on where and where not to try to buy? I am in PT so post Brexit, Europe (inc Ireland) and not UK is best...

    VCU Torque test results

    Not my area, but I would take the comma out as then its clearer that all three methods all apply to the trigonal oxygen site etc and not just transition intensity modelling. Whatever the **** they are However, Oxford commas are always a bit of a moot point If I were him I would leave it in and...

    VCU Torque test results

    You'd have to plot 1/time as that equation has N which is revs That equation makes sense, as you increase weight &/or lever arm, the speed of rotation (N) increases and so the time to do 1/4 of a revolution decreases. The equation also tells us that 1/time should vary linearly with length &/or...

    VCU Torque test results

    Hi! Has anyone tried tests to see how the time varies with weight and lever arm length? From this it seems that Revs/min is simply proportional to torque (weight x lever arm) I know its not the same geometry, but its an 'engineering' equivalent system and everyone's VCU is the same...

    Freelander 1 Oil Cooler

    Hi, 2001 FL1 Td4 I have had a bit of oil in the water for a while but no overheating or steam or smoke in exhaust, temp fine (even in 30 + C Portugal weather) or anything suchlike. But suddenly the temp gauge was creeping up to halfway, which wasn't that alarming but higher than normal and so...

    Freelander 1 VCU very stiff. Will it damage anything to use it for a day off-road &/or will I get stuck?

    Thanks both I'm actually in uk near Colchester at the mo. How much fluid do I need and how much for me to take that off of your hands @Nodge68 ?

    Freelander 1 VCU very stiff. Will it damage anything to use it for a day off-road &/or will I get stuck?

    1. Laziness 2. Lack of money 3. Being Portugal lack of access to materials, especially the silicon fluid in VCU
