    Stiff gears

    Hi. Sorry I haven't posted update on my gear problem but I had other ongoing issues with the freelander. However I did take all your advice & got the new clutch kit as recommended. It took weeks of waiting to get her done because I missed 2 alloted bookings due to covid so was put to the back of...

    Stiff gears

    Right then that's the one I'll go for. That should definitely (hopefully cure the problem of stiff gears). My brother said when he put the car in neutral & switched the engine of he could feel the gear stick give abit of movement back & forth just as it was shutting down. But I'll get the set of...

    Just wondering if there's a difference in the clutch kits & how would I know if it's the correct match for my f2? Their on eBay for around £350-ish which includes the duel mass. (in assuming I'll need the duel mass). Any advise welcome. Thanks.

    Smokey Freelander 1 td4

    Just tried bleeding the clutch but there wasn't any air bubbles coming out at all. Nice clean fluid too. I was keeping my fingers crossed but didn't make any difference lol. Any other things I could try b4 being drastic & having the g/box removed? Thanks for your help. Also, I'd like to pay into...

    Smokey Freelander 1 td4

    Perfect, I'll get this done over the w/end. As with standard break bleeding I would need to continue until there's no air bubbles going into the jar I presume. I'll get help from my brother to do the bleeding. Thanks again & I'll keep the results posted. Rob

    Smokey Freelander 1 td4

    Handy to know about no breather on the f2. I'm trying to find out if there's a a way to bleed the f2 hydraulic clutch system. (I don't usually get time to get online from Mon to Thursday due to silly work shift's). I'll search & find out b4 I have the gearbox removed, just incase.

    Smokey Freelander 1 td4

    I had same problem (smoke) with my TD4 f1 & because I didn't have a clue I assumed it was rings or knackered engine. £400 for another & all the hard work fitting it only to discover it was the crank case filter. Devastated isn't the work. But I've got a good engine sitting there gathering dust...

    Stiff gears

    Make's sense. I always assumed I couldn't bleed a hydraulic clutch. I had another engine put in my f1 by a mate & he had a big issue bleeding the clutch. Not sure how he managed it but it was ok after he did it. I'm not clued up mechanically so I'll need to find out how it's don't & I'll...

    Stiff gears

    Hello again. Regarding my Stiff gear post I've had a land rover guy who's company fixes these problems & I'm sure most of you will know of him. He told me it will be the slave/master cylinder causing my fl2 issue's with stiff gears etc. I was ready to buy a clutch etc but now I'm abit unsure...

    I think your right. I'll buy the clutch kit & arrange to get it sorted asap. I can't use her like this anyway. Thanks for advice. I'll keep posting my progress. Rob

    Stiff gears

    Thanks for your help. I'm sure my 08 f2 is hydraulic & had this discussion with my brother half hr ago. I did have a nice fl 1 in white for about 8yr's & sold it to my brother. Loved that motor & I'm pretty sure it was also hydraulic clutch. (i think). I honestly believe I'll have to replace the...

    Lol yes actually he did as car's where trying to pass. So you think I probably need a new clutch? It does go through all the gears ok when engine is off. Thanks for your help
