    Monaco Blue.

    Around 2000 BMW sold Land Rover to Ford. I had an 03 reg 3 series that was Monaco blue and a similar aged Mondeo that was almost the same shade of dark blue, so it may be worth looking at the different makes in case they used the shade you are looking for??? They were both metallic paint...

    clutch goes to the floor

    Not sure if ours was the slave or master cylinder but just to clarify this, our clutch peddle was actually stuck on the floor. It did not return unless you got your foot under it and "levered" it up. Then as soon as you pushed it down again it stayed down, so it wasn't as though you could...

    clutch goes to the floor

    Sorry to say that your thinking is correct. This happened to my sons FL2 last year and it was a gearbox out job. Quite a common fault on the early ones apparently. It was repaired by RCV at Paddock Wood at a cost of around £1300 but my boy had the whole clutch assembly replaced while the box...

    SPEAKERS UPGRADE.....please help

    This is probably a fairly obvious question but with the standard head unit in place will replacing just the speakers make any significant difference? I am happy to purchase 4 decent speakers, but if the head unit is not capable of pushing enough power out to improve the sound quality, would it...

    Thinking of a Freelander 2

    I had a new 08MY GS as a company car and covered 90k miles over the next 3 yrs and had very few problems. (Haldex, wheel bearings, but not much else) Whereas my son has an 07 XS with the HST kit at the mo (75k miles) and has had all sorts go wrong; Wheel bearings, complete new clutch assy...

    What is the ground clearance under your sill

    Mine is 270mm from the bottom of the sill to the road, but the side running boards I have fitted take the ground clearance down to 230mm at the lowest point – (3 Door 54 Reg TD4)

    Diesel leak

    2004 TD4 Facelift Just back from a 600 mile round trip to Kent. 39mpg (on Shell V-Power nitro) and running as smooth as it ever has:) Got up this morning to find a wet patch of diesel under the rear o/s wheel arch with drips about every 10 secs adding to the mess once the engine was started:(...

Try entering "Buying a freelander" Then nip across to the "Introduce yourself" bit as it will stop you getting a lot of grief from the membership. Oh and ........Welcome. As long as you are handy with the spanners or have deep...

    hard start

    From Wikipedia; A hard start is a rocketry term referring to an overpressure condition during start of a rocket engine at ignition. In the worst cases, this takes the form of an explosion. Now I know that our V6 boys are faster than the TD4's but I got to get me one of those:eek:

    Which Dash Cam ?

    I use my iphone 4 on video setting in a windscreen phone holder. Gives an hour or so of recording with a nice clear picture and as long as it’s plugged into the ciggy power supply, the battery is fine. Not tried night recording though.

    Freelander 3 door roof bars

    Can anyone tell me if the 3 door roof bars come apart. (Meaning into 3 different parts) Logic says that they will and I am guessing that its just a matter of undoing a couple of allen keyed bolts???? I need to collect a set on my way back next week and don't want to be fitting them before...

    One shot on passenger window?

    I recently found that the one shot lowering of the drivers side electric window had stopped working, but a search on here showed how to recalibrate and now that is sorted :) However, the passenger side will not lower unless I hold on to the switch until it reaches the bottom and it will not...

    Cigarette lighter

    Have just purchased one of these and the usb connection will not work with an iphone, but the sockets seem to take a Tom Tom sat nav, Belkin tunecast connected to my iphone and portable DVD player all at once without blowing fuses. Probably won't last too long, but cheap enough to throw away.
