    Freelander 1 Using car with front passenger seat removed.

    I've left the front passenger seat in as I had enough room with just the rear split seats out. I may have to remove it in the future if I need the extra space lengthwise.

    So if I test the VCU and there's nothing wrong with it are you still going to make that claim? I mean what time period/mileage are you going to specify because really what you're claiming means the damage starts as soon as there's not 4 identical tyres fitted. My F1 has done 135,000 miles on...

    It works obviously because I have 4WD and no noise/vibration issues. Whether it works 100% I do not know but I am not in the habit of testing things that appear to be working properly. Just like I wouldn't remove my water pump or alternator and test it.

    It had a mix of different tyres when I bought it three years ago. It now has two sets of two different tyres fitted earlier this year.

    My Freelander 1 td4 built in 2003 has done over 140,000 miles and still original VCU. Should I be worried that it's done twice the mileage it's supposed to do?

    Thanks for the reply. I read elsewhere that you have to disconnect battery completely and wait 30 mins before removing connection to seat belt pre tensioner. Did you do that? I don't want it exploding on me!

    Freelander 1 Using car with front passenger seat removed.

    Hi, need to remove front passenger seat for a couple of weeks. I am unsure what to do about the seat belt pretensioner. Should I remove it from the car altogether or should I connect the electric plug and leave it in the passenger footwell? I'd prefer to remove from the car but unsure what...

    Rear Seats YES or NO

    Hi, does the front passenger seat need to be fitted for the MOT?

    MOT Fail

    I drove to Halfords in Stratford upon Avon but it's closed down. Notice on the window says they've moved to Leamington Spa. Luckily for me, LEAMOCO were open which is where I should have gone to first anyway.

    Brake pedal goes to floor

    Yes, I recently replaced my brake pipes and they were crusty exactly where you say. The clip mounting the two rear pipes to the chassis rail is a muck and moisture trap.

    Thanks for your help. Two new Lucas bulbs if Halfords stock them and I'll be sure to leave the empty boxes on the passenger seat for Mr Tester to see.

    MOT Fail

    I guess you're right. Do they measure the colour or what?

    MOT Fail

    Rear Direction indicator incorrect colour both (4.4.3 (a)) The lens is white and the bulb is Amber. Passed previous MOT no problem but failed this time around. Going for re test in a couple of days at a different MOT station. What can I do? Indicators look Amber when they're flashing.

    Brake pedal goes to floor

    I would like to add that there doesn't have to be a sudden or gradual loss of brake fluid for the pedal to go to the floor. I was on a couple hundred miles motorway drive to the Welsh mountains. One of the brake pad springs was rusted through and snapped into two pieces which caused the pads to...
