This is Oct 2020 so I guess I'm looking at past history - but may help others. "2 amigos" (TC + HDC) on a 2005 Td4 Manual. Cleared themselves after a few minutes (2 occasions, I think). Initial panic on the assumption of System Fault (as per handbook) but had ABS sensor wiring plugs in mind for...

Well, now... I went through just this exercise at the beginning of July (2019). Fairly loud noise under the wheelarch, took it to bits (if you take the wheel arch liner off you can see what you're doing). Found the fuel filter in backwards, as fitted by LR main dealer 5 years ago. Put it all...

I'm glad it's sorted. And without ripping the car to bits. Bryan

Sorry that's not worked, only other quick check is to confirm that the lock/unlock rocker switches on the driver's & passenger door armrests work. If they don't I'd suspect the driver's door key lock switch contact(s) are sticking and fooling the system. If you want to start heaving trim panels...

According to the User Manual, (P38) try holding the handset near the steering wheel, and press Lock or Unlock 5 times in quick succession. If that doesn't work I'd take the battery out, clean it and the contacts with meths, and replace. Don't touch the battery or contacts with your fingers; use...

Hi Lara, belated response but I've only just got round to playing with vac system on my Td4. You really need a vacuum gauge to suss what's happening but here goes:- There's a short braided hose from the tee piece near the vac pump to a vacuum reservoir (small box under the heater hoses). From...

Here's the wiring - too easy, all Freelander 1 models the same. Brake light Green/purple; Side light LH Red/black; RH Red/orange; Reverse Green/brown; Fog lights Red/yellow; Indicators LH Green/red; RH Green/white; Earth = Black.

Hey - that was quick - hope it's going to be helpful. The wiring loom comes over the RH rear wheelarch (behind the panelling of course), then splits to the 3 rear lights. The cable to the LH lamp runs under the plastic trim (if I remember right) which holds the carpet down in the rear doorway...

Hi - this reply depends on model, I have the 2005 Td4 but the brake light wiring is probably the same on others. 1/ Have you got the right bulb - should be twin filament with offset pins. 2/ Have a close look at the holder and check the bulb pin nearest the terminals goes into the deepest slot...

Since this is a recent post I thought I'd add my recent experience - the vac hose to the EGR solenoid, which on the 2005 Td4 model comes off the tee piece from the vac pump, had completely shredded itself on a coolant pipe under the EGR valve. A mouse could not have done better. Certainly no...

Hi - I had to replace the coolant expansion tank when the car (2005 Td4 Manual) was quite new. Kept losing coolant, couldn't see where from. Unbolted the tank, found a puddle of coolant on top of the strut, under the tank. Badly moulded tank, cap would not seal. New pukka LR tank & cap combo was...

Hi - I have just been checking the temperature gauge on a 2005 Td4 Manual, thought it worth posting the result. Using (t)rusty Haynes Manual, remove the inlet manifold, to expose the temperature gauge sensor screwed into the engine. Remove the plug and turn it over to expose the terminals...

Hi, I've just had a look at mine after a couple of months of gradually increasing clunks. Very, very difficult to locate by ear - could be coming from anywhere. Front nearside a/roll bar link nylon bush, pretty good for 155,000 miles I think, but I don't go bush-bashing like some. OEM build (so...

Jamie, assuming you're talking a Mk1 Freelander, thus the same as mine - best source of info. is Haynes Manual. Your local library may have one, but it's well worth buying. It's a very odd transmission system, possibly unique. MkII is a different setup. On Mk1, each axle has a "free"...

Wayne, I've had a Td4 from new (2005) and the linkage gradually got sloppier. I popped off the nylon ball/cup joints and anything else that moved, greased with graphite (sticky) grease and put it all back together. Finally worked out, with some help from Haynes Manual (see pic. 4.31 on Page...
