    Freelander 1 starting problems

    Try replacing the fuel pressure sensor and wiring harness. I had a similar problem. Replaced 4 injectors, the fuel pump, the fuel filter and the maf sensor. Would have saved a lot of money if I had done this first.

    Lower Ball Joint size

    Terrible Engine Knock

    Was yours knocking in idle. Mine isn't. Don't know if that makes a difference.

    Terrible Engine Knock

    It's got the power but revving it causing the knocking which causes it to chug along. So I don't really put the foot down. There is zero issue in idle.

    Terrible Engine Knock

    Yes it started about 6 weeks ago. I changed the injectors 3 weeks ago and it made zero difference. When I changed the fuel filter 2 weeks ago it helped for about 1 day then it was back. So definitely a fuelling issue.

    Terrible Engine Knock

    Okay so I have been getting this knock for a little over a month now and it seems to be getting worse by the day. When I touch the accelerator at all it sounds like Bren gun firing under the bonnet and the is a cloud of black smoke that would lose a Bond villain. So far I have replaced all 4...

    Aftermarket Radio Question

    What is the exact adapter I need to fit an after-market head unit? I have the aerial extender but the other leads are bigger than the socket on my new pioneer stereo. Thanks

    Engine Knock Woes

    Would this cause a puff of black smoke at the exact same time as the knock?

    Engine Knock Woes

    BMW M47 engine. The knock is a real tinny rattle when I accelerate (like a tin can being kicked down the road). Mechanic is 99% certain it a fueling problem.

    Engine Knock Woes

    Right, where to start. Engine started knocking about 2 months ago. Replaced the fuel filter and all 4 injectors. General service done with all filters and oil change. HP pump replaced. It is still knocking exactly the same. I really don't know where to look next. It isn't throwing up any...

    No sign of it anywhere under the bonnet. Must be the wheel arch type. Cheers

    Heated rear windscreen

    Hi guys, Bit off an issue with the heater for the rear windscreen on my 03 td4. The light doesn't come on and it won't heat. I have checked the fuse and it is fine. My local mechanic was looking at the heating matrix a few weeks back as it has seized. Is it possible that he has damaged the...

    shaking at 60

    Sounds exactly like mine last year. Nearside driveshaft was so badly damaged it was close to going through the gearbox. Get it properly checked ASAP.

    starting problem

    Sounds like a fuel pump issue. Mine did the same a few years back. Eventually wouldn't turn over at all.

    Aftermarket Radio Question

    Hi Guys, I had an after-market Pioneer stereo fitted in my 03 TD4 ES so I could play MP3s through my phone and the like. It has since stopped working and I have re-fitted the original radio. If I was to get another MP3 radio would I be able to adapt it to use my steering wheel controls and...
