Happy New Year to you all. I've been very quiet for a few months, nothings gone wrong,until... My purple 1999 1.8 freelander has managed to lose all it's coolant; if i squeeze the bottom hose, there is nothing there. So I refilled it and it lost it all overnight. There are no visible signs of...

Hello all, ok , here goes. This is on my freelander 1.8 1999 (mauve). It's gone for 3 months without any problems. BUT now I have a clinky gear type noise coming from the front of the car noticible when reversing and turning (not at full lock, that's a different noise) and also when turning...

Hello Peeps, This is on my 1999 1.8 3-door moneyeater. I recently replaced a wheel sensor and cv joint which successfully got rid of that fault. BUT... the 3 amigoes then came back on after sharp braking. My mechanics fault reader now brings up Shuttle valve fault, which probably means the abs...

Finally took my 1.8 1999 3 door freelander to an independant LR specialist. My model is pre OBD2 so the cheap code readers now available are useless. I've read plenty about sensors but never understood or found a good description of what can go wrong. It was diagnosed as faulty sensor on a LR...

Morning all, I want a cheapish fault reader for plugging in to the diagnostic socket on a 1999 Freelander. What can anyone recommend?

Morning all, My 1.8 freelander refuses to talk through the diagnostic socket. The readout says "no system found". (It also has the 3 amigos and SBS lit which is wot I was hoping to get guidance from it on) Any ideas?

First the good news; my 2nd replacement head gasket is still ok and the holes I drilled in what I thought was a hand washing basin in the back seem to have worked. Now the bad news; another little problem to puzzle over. The SRS light has decided to have a life of its own. It stays on sometimes...

Greetings all, Yet another niggle; on my 1.8 1999 Freelander with another new head gasket ( all fingers and legs crossed); the temperature gauge has now ceased to work. I've put in a new sender as the most obvious choice but that didn't do it. Any ideas as what to look for next, please?

On a 1999 1.8 freelander, I replaced a fractured clutch bracket and cylinder assembly 6 days ago. Today the new bracket has fractured in the same place taking the cylinder assy with it. Either I'm unlucky, or is this a symptom of further impending clutch trouble?
