Hi, I acquired a td4 Freelander 1 from a friend as they were scrapping it. I have a 1.8k that needs a new back box. Could I swap them over as the td4 one is in great condition. If I can would it require any mod, anything to know if it will fit ? Thanks

Got them off perfectly second time round. Cheers buddy

Brilliant thank you.

Thanks very much Steve. Yeah I got the two side pieces off ok. I will try and push the top one upwards. Thanks for the reply

Hi Steve, I need to replace the same piece of trim due to a dreaded leak. Can you explain how you got your trim off. When I tried taking mine off I snapped it in two. I have now got to remove some from another Freelander and really don’t want to break one again. Cheers pal

Hi, I have tried once and failed once at removing the FINISHER-BACKLIGHT UPPER piece of trim. I have a second chance of removing one hopefully without snapping it this time. Just wondering if anyone knows exactly how you get it of in one piece ? Looked on the net but can’t find and...

Hi guys, I need to change my cam cover gasket. Never done it before. Is it just the one gasket that needs changing or will I have to replace any other gasket in the process. cheers

Hi hippo, it’s rusted the metal bracket that sits under the top trim. Found the bits on John craddock. £200 + so might try to find some second hand bits.

Oh it’s happening alright, might just get a pump and some fish make a feature out the dam thing. If @Hippo could help that would be great

Massive help, found the part numbers. Looks like they’re obsolete tho

Hi peeps. As the thread says I’m looking for some help in locating some parts. I have been struggling with the dreaded water leak in the rear tool compartment. I have a 2001 Freelander 1 1.8k series 5d Hippo has water leaking in from the top under the upper finisher all through the rear...

So a while ago my catalytic converter exploded on me. I recently replaced it but now the steady amber engine warning light is still on. I have replaced the emissions lead from the cat and it’s still on. Without taking it to the garage how can I cancel this light. It’s driving me mad. Thank you.

So my catalytic converter literally exploded on me. I have all the replacement parts and am working on it now. I have 4 of the five bolts off but cant get to the one behind the altanator. I need to slide the alt over to get behind it but can’t seem to fine the bolts to undo it. It’s a 1.8 k...

2001 freelander 1 50256m

Thank you.

Absolutely fantastic, just had a flick through hippos guide. It’s outstanding. I’m almost 100% sure that’s the cause of the noise so will now investigate further. Thanks for the help

First time 4x4 owner. I recently purchased a 2001 Landy Freelander 1.8 Petrol SE. I did do a little research on the subject and know the 1.8 Petrol engine is supposed to be a bit crap. This one had one lady owner 15 stamps in the book, head gasket done at 22k I think and it’s currently got 49k...
