Put double layer of cling film over brake reservoir and screw cap on to reduce leakage by creating a partial vacuum. Don't drive it !!

You can usually add a joiner just under the chassis rail. It is the bit in the wheel arch that rots. Make sure you get conifer pipes, copper is too soft and breaks when unscrewed at a later date. Make sure all flares on pipe ends are correct for the Freelander. A mix of DIN and SAE double...

Anyone tried spraying Vienna Green code 751 ??? Now on second mix to match aerosol from a company I have used many times before and it is still too green. The original colour is a gold / green / grey. The last spray is the best, hoping with many coats it will blend in. Supplier has admitted an...

As you have fitted they are not so far off vertical when the arm is down at an angle !! They are trailing arms after all. Of course, depends which way up you fitted them but as photo I wouldn't worry.

It's a must peep thread. Recall an email and it gets it read too !!

There must be an algorithm based on serial number. Who wants to try to derive it!?!?!?

Tried this link and for less than a fiver got the code back within minutes. https://ebay.us/m/VCDWed All works fine !!

Hi, Can anyone assist please? Either a contact in LR dealer or some other method. Have a good CD Radio from a scrap car, have the registration number but need the radio code. Local dealer to me used to give them out but they want paperwork and, worse, payment now !! Thanks for any leads....

The solid rubber section needs to be vertical ! I'm sure it isn't that critical. The 2 part Poly bushes make this a doddle.

Save the date. Saturday 13th Sept 2025. Will PM the location in North Devon to those confirming attendance. Except those who know already !

They are impressively tight. I bust my bushing tool and a 10 ton press finished the job !! I now use Poly as a fit and forget. If I recall, with the standard ones, Imput the arm on a block of wood. Centred the bush, put a large socket on the outer ring and gave it a good whack to seat it...

So this is looking like a goer. I am happy to provide space for parking and marquee+ toilet etc. No charge for attendance. I have a mate who is looking to produce some LZ merchandise (with a Freelander photo, not a Defender !). Several great minds are working on the logo. Refreshments will be...

There was me thinking it was lager. Don't really want a 'sample!' 🤭 Esp if it has been passed by the Cornish Management !!

Poly or standard with metal ring around the outside??

And here's the donor !! Nearby too !! https://www.facebook.com/share/1BjHa82R7F/

OP has a 2005.

Good stuff ! It's key that it all sits in the pulleys otherwise it will never go on !! Must be at least 5mm bigger than the belt run !!

If the belt is correctly on all the pulleys and down properly, pushing the tensioner will just allow it to fit over the crank pulley. I usually get it half on and then relocate my tensioner spanner and bite a bit more turn.

Obvs take wheel off and plastic splash guard. Get comfy by wheel as it needs lot of control and effort to turn it enough.
