    TD4 Fluttering Noise >3500rpm

    I've recently noticed a fluttering noise when my revs go over 3500rpm (I know, I know, it isn't good to thrash a hippo!). Hard to describe really, but it only comes in when you wind it up. Do doosals have somekind of pressure relief valve on their turbo's? Could this be what I'm hearing? Any...

    Car damaged during MOT

    Some advice please......anyone.....! I had my FL MOT'd a couple of days back and today have noticed a dink in the trailing edge of the drivers door. I know it wasn't there when I took it in, and I know I haven't done it since, but I can't prove it was them :mad: . The damage is the kind...

    Pressure Washer Recommendations

    ( sorry for cross-posting, but 'General' section weren't being very helpful! :D ) Am now getting sick of forking out a fiver a time to get rid of the cr*p generated by a days 'softroading'. I've got a budget of up to £150 for a home pressure washer. I'm not fussed about soap etc as I can do...

    Jet Wash Recommendations??

    Am now getting sick of forking out a fiver a time to get rid of the cr*p generated by a days 'softroading'. I've got a budget of up to £150 for a home jetwash. I'm not fussed about soap etc as I can do that by hand.... I just want decent enough 'umph' to get rid of the dirt from underneath the...

    Oil Service - What bits (& Genuine or not!)

    I've had my FL since 20k miles (2004 td4). I'm now mid-service intervals (30k) and I'm keen to do regular oil changes. Having previously owned only small petrol engined cars before, I've a couple of questions that I thought you good people could help with (some are obvious I know, but I reckon...

    Smaller Sun Visor??

    I've got a problem (well I've got many, but here's one of them!).... I'm too tall for my sun visor! When I pull the sun visor down I have to duck a little bit to get a decent view through the windscreen. Has anyone come across a smaller (top to bottom) sun visor for the FL (or any other...

    Fitting a Slave Battery

    I'm thinking of fitting a slave battery to my FL. I can't see any space in the engine bay, so after talking about it with a guy at work we thought of the following (this may qualify for 'two half wits don't make a full wit'!): Fasten a battery box in the boot. Into the battery box put a...

    Wheel alignment (Camber & KPI)

    My Freelander was pulling to the left, and the garage have done 4-wheel alignment which seems to have cured it. But.....I've been looking at the print out of the alignment results and have noticed the following discrepancies: LR Camber = -1.12deg (should be -0.3 deg; +-0.45) RF King Pin...

    lrparts.net / side rubbing strips --- any experiences?

    I've just received some side rubbing strips from lrparts.net; the website makes out that they are LR genuine parts, but the quality of the mouldings is rubbish! The rubber has numerous machining/extrusion marks on them, and the bonding on the round end caps is really poor. Has anyone got...

    Hi (from Preston way)

    Hi all, At last, I've managed to track down (what looks like :D ) a decent LR forum. I've just bought on '04 plate Td4 Freelander.... and I love it! Hopefully I can introduce my new car to off-road (it doesn't look like it's ever seen a field!) , 'cause my hobby is motorsport support...
