Thank you. Seems like a dirty weekend is on the cards.

Fixed the heater control bulb and greased the driver's window. Doesn't creak - for now???

My V6 occasionally has a not very smooth change from 2 - 3 and then back down again. Had the oil change some 2k miles ago which, to be honest, did make a difference but it is still there. I understand that this change problem is probably down to the brake solenoid failing and that it is an...

Had both VIS motors refurbished now fitted, much better. Had AC re-gassed, much better

Tested and found that I have a balance VIS which is shot:mad:. Sending it off for a refurb for around £50, then back to normal:).

I have the exact same symptoms:confused:

Recently aquired a Torque App for the phone and it too shows fan on at 109 and off at 107(?), it also mimics the On Board Display (OBD) of my ZT 1.8T quite accurately so I'm fairly confident these figures are accurate. Is there anyway the fan operating temps can be reduced so that it comes on...

Right thank you. Had the coolant changed very recently and have had to top up a couple of times. Was wondering why, but it's the same for the 75/ZTs they take some time to settle following fluid changes also. Good job I'm used to lifting the bonnet and checking. Sorry for hijacking your...

Thanks Hippo 75/ZTs have autos. Fans kick at 100c low speed and 106 for high speed, I see the fans come in on ours at 109c?

Hippo Why does the V6 in our cars run hotter than than it does in the MGR cars 75 and ZT? Is it possible to get them to run cooler as surely this would make them less prone to suffering with HGF?

Check the stat between the V. But half a gallon in 40 miles???

Need to do a brim-to-brim for an accurate measurement. Get that out of my V6.:D

My V6 was owned by some knuckle-dragging-Neanderthal with no idea how to look after it. Handbrake didn’t hold. Cleaned and adjusted. Rear diff bearing failed. Repalced. VCU and bearings replaced. VCU hadn’t gone but read on here best to get ‘em done so did. White smoke on start up and...

Absolutely not. Had three TD4's and sold the last one and bought a ZT 1.8T which gave a shed load of trouble to start with (but that was mostly the incompetent MG nut garage I bought it off) but is now sorted. Just got myself a V6, must be mad I know but hey sometimes you have to just do it...

Had a bang on the head once.:crazy_driver: That's my excuse anyway.

Hi one and all Been looking at joining for some time but, as I've just got my 4th Freelander a V6 as well, previous ones were TD4's, thought it about time I got on properly. Swapped my last Freelander for a late ZT 1.8T which I still have, but missed the TD4 from day one so had to go back...
