Sorry, yes you are correct, checked level with engine running, car level on the ground. There is no engine underpan on my car, so can not be that. No tools left in there, as I only used a socket for the drain, and the 14mm for the drain, both are accounted for. The only other thing I have...

Good Morning all, I hope everyone is good.. I was wondering if I could pick your brains for a minute.. I changed my ATF fluid yesterday, as I am going to be doing some towing, and it have not been done since I have had the car (car only has light use ~500 miles per year) I followed the advice...

Just to update for future : I changed the EGR cooler (it was not straight forward!) I a so please to say, no bubbles in the expansion tank! You are right on the money Nodge68! (Don't you every get bored of being right ;) ) Thank you all for your help and advice! It is appreciated so much...

I thought the expansion tank would over pressurise if the exhaust was venting into the coolant??? I would not be surprised if the over pressure was ejecting the coolant out the cap... Since the EGR cooler is a new thing to me,I am going the check that out in the morning maybe disconnect the...

Hi Andy, No, No white smoke from the exhaust (no steam) I can put my hand in front of the exhaust for a while, and my hand does not get damp or wet.. I wish mine was like yours, at least you can see what needs to be replaced and where the coolant is coming from :) Sadly my engine bay and...

Hi Nodge68! Thank you once again for such invaluable information... I must admit, it is the first car I have had with one of these on.. I never knew they existed until now. I am going to have a look tomorrow, but had a look at some pictures in the meantime, looks like it is some kind of heat...

Hi Folks!, I am just wondering if I can get a sanity check on this one please? I am 90% sure I am correct but just wanted to run it past you guys... I had hairline cracks in the expansion bottle some time ago, It overheated (Temp led came on), So I changed the bottle and cap, and all seemed...

Just a quick update, I replaced the expansion bottle and It has appeared to solve the issue, no bubbling in the expansion tank, nor any overheating - I Never would have guessed the expansion bottle, so a big thanks to Nodge68! While I was messing with the coolant, I took the liberty of...

Fantastic stuff, Got an expansion tank and cap on order... Kudos, and thank you for your help, it is greatly appreciated!

Just taken a picture, this does not look the best!

Excellent Nodge68, thanks for this, I would never have thought of any of this, I take it that the expansion cap should not release pressure let alone coolant out then? I had a sniff in the expansion tank to see if the bubbles were exhaust fumes, but there are no fumes there.. If I take the...

Hi Guys! I am a little stuck on this one, and could do with some input on this please?? OK, due to lockdown, My car did not move for over three months.. Some background: I did a 5 mile trip, I noticed the temperature gauge, go from normal up into the red, and then the red light came on too...

More of a rolling work in progress.. :rolleyes:

@ pdpjpr When I first got my FL the window would not go all the way down either (about 2 inches from the bottom), upon inspection, it turned out to be catching on the cable tidy on the door and stressed it so it would always bent outwards, so the window would always catch on it.. The issue...

OK folks, I have cracked it! I started to inspect the wiring from the rear tailgate to the front fuse box. Removed the rear right interior panel in the boot and guess what? Near the rear seats underneath the holder for the parcel shelf, I discovered two relays - later found one is for the rear...

Ok thanks for all the info, I guess it is back to the rear door as a first port of call.. check and clean the sensors, and the wiring as when I got the car the rear window would wind all the way down bar the last 2 inches... had the card off and notice it was snagging on the vertical wire...

Thanks for the link, However, I have already tried this, to no avail.. :(

Thanks for all the replies :) Should have mentioned : It's a Freelander 1 2006 Auto Diesel TD4 In response, I can add the following.. I can rule out the fob button being pressed as this happens when I am asleep and my keys are on the table, so sure that no buttons are being pressed...

Hi Folks, I have a quick question for you please.. I think my CCU has gone AWOL, the back window winds down but if I then wind it up (say half way) it drops to the bottom again, it does not matter how far I move it up, it just drops to the bottom again, the only exception to this is when I...
