Hi all. thanks for the replies. My local 4x4 Specialists in Land Rover contacted me and gave me a price of £150.00 +VAT to FLUSH GEAR BOX AND REFILL and it will take them a couple of hours. So what the hell do I do. Yes Nodge68 if I thought the car was worth it I would have a recon TRANSMISSION...

Thanks for the replies. Right lets get started. We recently covered a 200 mile trip which included lots and lots of hills with many many gear changes and after approx 100 miles the Auto Box was beginning to get lumpy when changing, not the normal smooth changes. I"ve had this same experience a...

Hi all, Quite disappointed with no replies from my previous Thread so I"m trying again. Bell Engineering have advised me to have the Automatic gearbox on my 2003 Freelander Serengeti 5 door Automatc Flushed out and Refilled. Has anyone had this done because my local Landrover Specialist has told...

Hi, Having a problem with the Autobox on my 2003 Freelander so contacted Bell Engineering who advised me to have the Box Flushed out and Then refilled. Does anyone know anyone in the Bournemouth/Southampton area who can do this because my local Land Rover Specialist tells me it can only be done...

Thanks for that mate but I"m really going to have to pay someone to come and help me.

Hi, Can anyone out there advise or help this old gezzer put the two seater part of the Rear seat back in my 2003 Serengeti 5 door. I took it out to replace it with a leather set but the sale fell through so now I am struggling to put them back in. The single part went in ok but the two seat part...

Hi all, I"m having serious trouble refirring the back seats of my 2003 Freelander Serengeti 5 door. I took them out to collect a large item but now I"m having a problem fitting the double seat. I can get it quite close but not close enough. Is there a specific way to Refit them. Do I hook them...

Hi Jayridium, Yeah I will have a try but it will have to be next week. I"ll let you know

A few weeks ago I took out the rear seats of my Freelander mk1 to collect some furniture and by heck I"m getting a lot better MPG, but next month I have my yearly stress when she goes in for her MOT. My question is, Do I have to replace the Seats for the MOT? I don"t need them in the car. Any...

Cheers Artic2. Are you feeling the cold today!!!!!!!!!!!!!

After the good vibes shown by my thread I have now decided to keep my 2003 Freelander TD4 Automatic Serengeti and as such will be booking her in for a full service including the JATCO Auto Box. So what do you recommend?. Should I get the garage to drain all the Transmission fluid and then...

Nice looking motor Mulderke. Good on you.

Thanks guys for the advice, it looks like I"m stuck with the old girl so I"ll probably keep the Freelander as well. I agree with everything you say and thanks Jayridium if I can find one I will fit a Nidge Bar(Sorry Nudge Bar). Anyone know where I can buy one??

Hi all, I"ve owned my 2003 FreelanderTD4 Auto Serengeti for 6 years and if you consider how much I paid for it then it has probably cost Peanuts to run. I had 4 new AVON All Season tyres fitted a few months ago, She has solid bodywork, clean interior and only 148000 miles. The BMW motor uses a...

Your replies are interesting and leave me with a problem. A couple of days ago I went for a test drive in a BMW X3 2.0 D Auto and I liked it ! but not enough. I"ve had quite a few Freelanders and I have always liked them but I would like a newer one, but which???

I"ve been thinking about changing my 2003 Freelander Serengeti Automatic for a couple of years but whilst Lockdown was around I held on. Now I"m looking for another decent Freelander Auto but it seems to me that good Mark 1 Freelanders are holding their prices? So my question is: Is it worth...

Sorry mate, no flights from the UK so I"ll probably have to travel overland by Freelander so I reckon I"ll need more than a cuppa! But before I set off can you tell me what size TORX you used and what did you use to undo the screws? I"ve got a set of Torx bits and I"ve got a reasonable metric...

Hi grumpygel. I might pop around later to borrow them

Hi Andyfreelandy. Thanks for the info. I"m trying to do the reat seats. I have a T40 TORX and I have a Socket Set but beside a screwdriver which wont even budge the Torx screws but none of my sockets fit. What size socket do I need to turn the TORX which is bloody tight
