    Td4 issues misfire and black smoke.

    Hi guys. I'm getting to the end of my tether with my 04 Td4. I'm having issue and need some help. The problem is the fairly common missfire issue arround 2000rpm. I'm missfireing with a bad Rattle and black smoke above about 1700 - 2000rpm. To the point of being almost undriveable. Iv deleted...

    MAF and poor running help.

    Hi guys. Iv got an 04 Td4 that is running rough. I had thought injectors at first but now I'm thinking MAF. It seems to have an aftermarket MAF and I think it is in the wrong place (between the intercooler and EGR) could this cause a miss fire at certain RPMs? Also I found a worrying Blob of...

    Ya, i was in a very bad mood last night and wasn't totally fair to it. Problems aside i have loved it and it will be badly missed.

    Well guys, i started this thread in an attempt to show the Land Rovering community that there is a place for Freelanders. But its with a sad heart that i have to tell you i feel that i was wrong. In the short time that i have owned this Freelander it has been nothing but trouble. If it could go...

    Hi guys, im having some big issues with the Freelander. Basically, when just touching the throttle (when trying to maintain a constant speed), im finding the the engine struggles and generally runs like a pig. The engine management light will flash on and off randomly. Also when i pull up at...

    Hi guys, new update. I fancied a different paint job ect but iv got neither the skill or equipment to do it my self or the cash for a pro job. So I found some camo stickers on Amazon for £4.50. I love the effect. I reckon I can do the whole car for about £30. What do you guys think?

    There's nothing better than towing a posh (and broken) BMW with a scabby old Land Rover. Today was a god day.

    Had a great days greenlaning in North Worcestershire and Shropshire on the way to see my parents in Telford. Its great fun, and looks great with the roof off. Bit of a fiddle to remove and put back on but worth it. I relay need a shower cover though if anyone knows of one for sale? :)

    Right, the paint is looking a bit shabby and to be honest I don't like the colour. So im thinking for re painting it (but not till the summer). Im thinking NATO light stone. A, I like the colour and B, its cheap and easy to get hold of. You never seen a Freelander with a different paint job...

    productive day today, Rotated all the wheels to even out the wear, and fabricated and fitted an EGR blanking plate. Hope I can feel the difference. Next job, fitting a folding shelf the the rear door for the camping cooker ect.

    Got my light guards fitted today. I picked up a full set of genuine Land Rover ones (the type that screw into the wing) for £40. A bit of a steal I think. :D

    Fantastic day out greenlaneing in Church Stretton. Came across some wild horses (one of whom decided to nibble my car, see photo.) finished of with Chinese and a bonfire and fireworks in Bridges. The new tyres did fantastically. Its really starting to feel and look the part. The only problem...
