Hi I started this thread way back in December 2012 and like a lot of owners out there still have the same problem with blue/white smoke at start up. Since then I have changed oil and filter, fuel filter, air filter, replaced glow plugs, changed breather for bmw vortex type, swapped all 4...

Hi I have been looking at all the TD4 and BMW 2ld forums on this common problem but haven’t managed to find any cure. Mine is a 2004 TD4 with about 85000 on the clock. It has been fitted with a Synergy2, egr bypass, BMW vortex and has been run on shell fuel. For the last couple of months it has...

Thanks for that but Ive searched high and low on the forums but havent managed to find an answer to this particular problem. As I said have used the facelict wiring cable and plug but cant get the low beam bulb to stay on along with main beam. Any help would therfore be greatly apreciated.

Hi Finally got round to facelifting my 2002 Freelander. Bigger job than I expected with more bodywork mods than I thought there would be. Anyways now done and although the front and rear bumpers don’t quite sit as neatly as they do on a pucker facelift model the whole thing looks really smart...

The noise has developed over a couple of months and appears to come through the drivers foot well area/behind the steering column. It only happens on poor road surfaces at speeds of between 20 and 40mph when the noise is pretty constant. Bigger bumps don’t seem to trigger it and it completely...

Gunning it down the motorway doing around a ton for about ten minutes, slowing down for the slip road then sudden loss of all power. No judder, bang, missfire or smoke. Coasted on to the hard shoulder, wouldnt start and had to get a tow home. Took it landyman (not main dealer) who was amaazed to...

Hi Our 56k 2001 TD4 has developed an intermittent bang/pop noise (almost like a gentle backfire) which seems to coming from underneath the back of the vehicle when reversing on full lock. Seems to happen more often after a session off-road, after wheels have been spinning and TC has engaged...

Do these make any difference or are they a waste of money? Mine has already been remapped by a previous owner.

Hi All My clutch master cylinder has got to the stage where it needs to be bled every week or so but £100 for a replacement seems like a rip-off. Anyone know of a repair or of any cheap suppliers?
