    Gearbox fault? I THINK...

    If taking to a garage use one that is very good with the auto boxes. May cost a bit extra but then you'll get a proper diagnosis. Your location may help for any member reccomendations.

    FL2 - Alternator belt gone but engine stopped?

    Or if the belt is intact it may be out of alignment. When turning over it may regularly go a bit faster if there's no compression.

    Buying another FL2 - how much for cam belt change and service?

    Rear diff issues

    Earlier freelanders had a different front to rear ratio, that my have been achieved by using different rear diffs. If so I would be fitting the later diff.

    Loud clunk from rear SOLVED

    The same sort of clunk? Diff mount tends to clunk just on acceleration or when you take your foot off the accelerator as the diff initially gets or looses power.

    ED4 2 wheel drive rear subframe

    I imagine the fixing points will be the same to the body. Does the 2wd subframe have anything attached that is specific to being 2wd? If not I imagine it would fit. What is the price difference?

    Freelander 1: interior lights flicker whilst driving. Rear door issue.

    If you can check the wiring diagram there should be a cable to tell the controller the door is closed, I'd check that gives the correct signal first. I would look at that before the window as the window relies on being able to detect if the door is open or not.

    Freelander 1: interior lights flicker whilst driving. Rear door issue.

    The manual lock is only to raise the window. Hold the unlock button on fob to lower. Reset window by going all the way up with the door closed, but as you have to feed it into position it sounds like it's out of alignment. Remove door card and the fixings allow it to be angled in or out. The...

    1999 2.0L di backs off power at 2800rpm?

    Old car electrical question.

    With starter disconnected from original neg and replaced with your 12v supply shouldn't affect anything else. The positive will be common to the cars original electrics. I assume when you connect the jump leads the starter will spin and there is no other connection to the starter.

    Freelander 1 Should I buy?

    I understand for the 2 rollers, they rotate in different directions. That should mean there is no movement in the prop/vcu. A bit like if you spin one wheel the other side spins in the opposite direction and the prop doesnt move. I may be wrong!!

    Recovery vehicle road tax

    Recovery vehicle road tax

    New chassis kills the tax exemption as a significant change. Trade plates at your risk as the fine is high for misuse. Trade plates cost as well and could be as much as the tax. Given the original year would be a fixed price.
