Thanks for the responses! Does anyone know where I can get a version of Delphi diagnostic? Thanks

Hi, Thanks for the response. I have changed the rear cylinders, drums and shoes and tried bleeding the system with an EZ bleed. I managed to get air through but it didn't seem to come out with any real power which makes me think they aren't fully bled as there is still no real braking power...

Hi Everyone, I have changed the brake pipes and flexis for both front brakes. Got them all changed no leaks or anything and had to change both bleeding nipples. Bled the brakes up but don't seem to have a good pedal and have really poor performance from the brakes. The reservoir was empty...

Hi, Thanks for the replies, I will do the test just trying to locate a 32mm socket! The Freelander seems to be doing even less now... £10 of diesel might get me 30 miles if I'm lucky. If the 4wd was binding that much I'd surely feel it when coasting? Would almost feel like battery...

Hi, Yes all tyres the same, I bought a recon vcu when I got the vehicle so I haven't and hope it should be okay, I've only done about 5k miles since I got it. I don't think there's a fuel leak, just had the mot yesterday and nothing was noted, I have checked around and also can't see...

Hi, Bringing this back from the dead... Still got really bad mpg issues with the freelander. Since the last post I have changed the maf sensor which has made no difference. Would there be any tell tale signs if there was major drag from the 4wd system? I don't know if it's linked at all but...

Hi, Thanks for the response. Brakes don't get hot, checked them all after a longer trip and they were fine. I've checked the maf through unplugging it and there was no difference in engine tone or drop of revs so I'm guessing this could be an issue or contributer. Would that cause such a drop...

Hi, I've got a little clip of the actuator movement with the engine running which appears to move a little freer than with me hands. Does this look about right for the movement or should it be more? Kind of at my wits end trying to find out what is causing such low mog. Could something on...

Do you know if you can lubricate the actuator or put some Wd40 at the base or would the cause issues with the vac line? Looks like it could be a pig to replace with the limited space. Thanks

Hi, Thanks for the response. There's no smoke at all from it surprisingly! There was a fuel leak from the high pressure pump but I have replaced the seals and touch wood not leaking anymore! Does the heater use much? I think mine is always cutting in regardless of the weather. I'm not really...

Hi, Thanks for the replies. I have fitted an egr blank already which hasn't seemed to help, no smoke at all even when putting the foot down! I have a look at the turbo actuator. It feels stiff but I don't know of it is meant to be stiff as a spring return? Doesn't feel as though there is much...

Hi, Done a bit of searching but can't see any answers that fit my situation. I'm struggling with mpg since I've owned the vehicle a few months. It's a 2004 TD4. I've changed the air filter, oil and filter, oil breather with the newer version and I have done the seals on the high pressure fuel...

Hi, Thanks for the above info. I have undertaken this rebuilt the pump (fingers crossed correctly) just putting everything back together and I have a bolt unaccounted for. Massive long shot I know.. Does anyone have any ideas where it should be? For the life of me I can't find where! Thanks

Hi, Sorry to revive this a little. I read the very useful guide above. I am just wondering if there is a list of tools that would be needed for this job? Thanks

Hello, First post sorry if I am asking a silly question that has been asked to death. I have a 2004 Td4 which I did an oil change on the other day, I left the Freelander idling on the drive to warm the oil. When I went to have a look underneath to take the sump cover off it was dripping in...
