After this, if you are prepared to get your hands dirty, we have changed a pig into a nice vehicle for less than £175 in parts and a few hours under the chassis, plus £10 in hand washing!

Do a FULL oil and filter change. Make sure all tyres have the same tread depth. Then drive it and see what niggles you experience. That's where we started. After which we could then dig deeper.

Air Filter changed Turbo Filter changed ERG Blanking kit fitted and tested (TD4) Front ARB Suspension Struts replaced. Result, a much quieter, pokier, hopefully more economic, and no more knocking from the suspension Freelander 1.

After 3 months owning a FL1 2001 Td4 GS Auto with 130.000 on the clock, which needed a bit of TLC, we have found ours to be a cracking work horse, and got her for £750.00 If you don't mind getting your hands dirty, I (N not J that is!) would recommend one as when you solve a gremlin the smile...

Just fitted our EGR blanking kit, as well as air and turbo filter changes, and we now have the Landy we wanted!

Hi IndiT4, it sounds as though you are leaving just after I have joined. Having had Mandy the Landy for 3 months now, and received some cracking advice on here (particularly Lord Hippo of Freeland) I hope that I become a suitable replacement!

Problem solved as the head unit wasn't Bluetooth compatible, but the Parrot Minikit Neo 2 HD has ticked every box. Thanks for the info folks.

Superb info and guidance. Many thanks. N&J

Loving Mandy the Landy, and in 3 hours of heavy traffic she was impeccable!

1) We have one of these but the tip doesn't connect to anything. Is that right? I'll buy a new one in any case, but should it plug into somewhere, as I can't find a hole to put it in! 2) We will be replacing the air filter this weekend, which I can work out where it goes, so that should be ok...

Many thanks, a more pressing issue has occurred! Life with a Landy cannot be planned it seems!

HI All. and after some great advice on here regarding brakes and drive-shaft issues, a bit of frippary....! We have a car stereo that has USb and Aux capability and want to connect our I-Phones to it so that we can receive calls hands free, but also make calls to 2 or 3 specific numbers. Any...

Replaced front brake pads and replaced the rear two exhaust rubber hangers. Feeling chuffed!

Some fantastic advice thanks folks. I tried to pry back the cylinder with the unit in place and the bleed nipple slightly open. Couldn't get enough pressure on it so took the massive G=Clamp route and that worked a treat. Also handy when trying to re-seat the caliper as I hadn't pushed it back...

There only seems to be one YouTube video regarding changing the front brake pads and he seems to make it so simple to bleed a bit of fluid from a perfectly accessible bleed nipple that is shiny and new into a Vodka bottle... So... Worst case scenario, if I can't undo that one, as most of the...

Our First GRRRR Moment has arrived...

Just a basic td4 freelander that could do with brighter interior lights. Suspect there may be some earthing issues as they aren't performing properly with wire bulbs!

Agreed.

Not sure re the rivets, they appear to be where all the 10mm bolts are, or should be! Like the answer about the manufacture hole. N

Good Luck! Got ours for £750. Spent circa £150 so far and been told it could go for £1200 now.
