    Haldex service

    Following request for cam belt change posted just, thinking about the Haldex unit also. Garage purchased from told me that Haldex pump had been changed, but looking at standard of work done (or not as the case may be) i really doubt service had been carried out. How much should I expect to pay...

    FL2 XS TD4.e economy mode?

    So, the Rav4 turned out not to be as good as I'd hoped, still used the FL1 more, which was more economical! Did a silly thing, test drove a FL2, heck was I won over! So second one seen, offered fair P/X on the Toyota, so FL2 has been mine now for a few months, well made up! Comfy, handles OK...

    FL2 verified good, FL1 to go

    Ok, after2 months of ownership the FL2 bought in february appears to bee good enough that I don't need the reserve FL1 on the drive. Unable to use for sale forum as not meeting the minimum posts, but if anyone out there is after a TD4, '53 reg, sweet as a nut, please PM me.

    Evening all, few days off in the caravan at At. David's, issue is that on way down, intercootler hose decided to self destruct! 2003 TD4, pipe is the shorter 90 degree one, not the longer one from the radiator, might there be one in someone's garage available or am I visiting main agents in...

    Freelander 1 lower door skin repairs

    Only bit on her at the mo that is really getting me is rust at bottom of both doors on nearside. Sure someone told me once that a patch panel, in chequer plate, could be sourced and rivited over lower few inches of door to basically cover it up, saving fill, sand paint and repeat every couple of...

So left overnight, get in to go to work, cranks like a good 'un, but would it fire? So, called breakdown out as pay...

    FL1 protector bar mounts.....help!

    Just bought second hand protector bar for the front with driving / spot lights. Bit of a hasty purchase, thought it was all complete but missing the mounting brackets that bolt onto bumper rail for secure mounting. Looking at instructions on TOPiX (great site!) I can get most of the bolts /...

    Getting there......Crank Case breather

    Still loving ownership, no expensive bills as yet (still paranoid over clutch / VCU / IRD imminently failing!) and consistently getting 35 mpg, well happy! Investigating oil on rocker cover thought intercooler pipe gone, just turned out to be jubilee clip not tightening enough, so thought better...

    Getting there......front speakers

    Whilst trying to fix front n/s door triggering door open / alarm, noted speaker not working. Saw the price of OEM replacements, even used, thought I'd live with the silence! Then saw these at Halfrauds:- Fit pretty well in the original hole as well! Just 4 holes drilled to re-use original...

    Getting there.....random alarms!

    Looking for wisdom again before taking passenger door apart! ONLY WHEN WET intermittently the door open warning comes on. Process of elimination seems to verify that its the front nearside door. Worst thing is when parked up and locked at night, and it rains, the open door sensor turns on all...

    Getting there......now injector loom!

    So far so good, niggles getting sorted slowly, just fitted Synergy 2, well happy with that! BUT....continually suffering intermittent misfire! Usual thing, EML comes on, running rough, then clears. Fuel pump changed before I bought it, changed fuel filter, has to be injectors! Whilst digging...
