Hi all, I am now selling my Red Freelander 5 door station Wagon HSE Td4 Auto. It has done about 135,000 miles and had a full service history, mostly LR .Registered July 2006. For details about it, read this thread. I can no longer justify keeping it, as I now have an EV. (electric...

After my last trip out to Salisbury Plains, my engine bay is just a little light brown. What is the best way to clean it?

I've not used my Freelander now for 4 weeks. I went out to use it tonight and the battery was flat. As in completely dodo like. The remote didn't work, so I had to use a key. How 20th century is that! Having to use a remote is only slightly better as my Leaf is keyless, but I digress...

Hmm I have a new shiny new motor. But it only has 2wd. It won't like water or mud, but it is pretty good so far in poor weather. Best of all there is no road tax, it is congestion zone friendly (no charge) and costs less than 10% a year to run compared to my Freelander .

When the weather is cool and possibly when it is warm, my Freelander Td4 auto is very sluggish for the first mile or so. I was wondering if the MAF has any bearing on this. I know about if it is generally slow to pick up and disconnecting the MAF and driving it improves it I would need a new...

I'm not selling for the time being

I was chatting to a guy who races Freelsnders over the weekend, and we talked about the v6. He said that Land Rover made some factory v6 manuals for the AA. He thought they used the back plate from the Rover 75/ ZT v6 mated to a 1.8 petrol gearbox. He wasn't sure though and hasn't done it...

I finished servicing my TD4 auto today. I then took it out for a run. It felt good. But, then I entered a 60mph national speed zone. Put foot down in lower gear using steptronic and it wouldn't rev over around 3000rpm and was making a whistling sound. No lights on dash. Weird. I have just...

The beep when I select reverse on the auto stopped working part of the way through today. I had an easy day driving about 21 miles and only parking up 6 times before driving home. Engine run time would have been over 3 hours for that trip!!! (I expect my average mpg was in the low to mid 20's...

I took the car a few weeks early to be MOT'd just in case there were any problems, and didn't check anything on the car. The only preparation I did was replace 2 brand new tyres which had side wall punctures from my off-road trip last weekend. It passed with flying colours. :D...

Just had my 2nd fuse blow in 3 weeks. Both times it was the 10A one for the interior lights, but it also supplies power to the OBD port and also the odometer. Not sure what else it does. No idea why it has started to blow fuses. Nothing obvious. Any ideas?

For all you power mad people out there, I thought I would post my thoughts on my highly tuned TD4 auto. Okay, it was only for an hour....... As some will be aware I had a Ronbox fitted for a while, but I recently had a remap and I'm selling the Ronbox (- buyer lined up). Some of you may be...

Hi all you Freelander TD4 owners out there. I am now selling my Ronbox 2a that I bought in August 2013 along with the Pierberg MAF and the 3 position dash switch. I do NOT have the security bits for removing the MAF. They cost new £269.00 They are surplus to requirements as I have...

....has gone. I replaced my low pressure fuel pump in the rear wheel arch a couple if days ago and what a transformation. It pulls higher gears with less revs now. No smoke noticed either. I thought the injectors were on the way out, but it was the fuel pump all the time. Saved me a small...

When was the last Freelander 1 manufactured and registered? When did the Freelander 2 start production?

I'm driving to Bruges for the day tomorrow, and I was wondering if the only way to deal with my facelift headlights is to put some lens deflectors on the car? About the same distance as Leicester for me via the M40! On previous cars I just moved a lever and they then went 'flat' so they were...

Hi All, I want to do a few things at the back of my 2006 facelift HSE TD4 auto SW. 1. Fit my spare Blackvue drive recorder, rear facing. I want a switched live which I can access on the right hand side rear of the FL1. The only place I can mount it is on the trim on the right hand side 2...

I can't find anything relevant when searching so here goes. I have noticed a few interesting things happening with my TD4 auto recently. First off it is VERY slow when cold. I have the smell of diesel plus the rough running and smoking for about 10 seconds etc. then it seems a little...

What is the standard sill height from the road to the bottom of your sill, and what have people done to make it greater, so that you have more ground clearance. My 5 door station wagon HSE TD4 auto currently has a sill ground clearance of 265mm. As far as I'm aware it has standard height...
