As previous posts show i am now without the freelander1 . Clearing out my shed I do still have some spares that i acquired in my time owning my Freelander1 TD4 which i have placed on ebay. I am doing this post so that if anyone wishes to buy certain items for very reasonable prices i will be...

I reckon it would have cost at least 800 to 1000 to get the stuck injectors out. Lot of bother to remove head to take to a specialist as it could not run , then to get the head skimmed before I put it back. At least 3 injectors to replace those stuck in. I think that was a right decision. On top...

Just concluding this thread. I attempted to remove the injectors by dosing with plus gas. i did this for about 2 weeks before i finally found time to start the removal. At first all studs were stuck fast but finally i got movement on numbers 1,2,4 studs. i gently unscrewed them until it got too...

Started up tonight and the white smoke filled the road. Looking in the mirror it was bad. Drove it until hot and it started to clear. However still a slight hunt on idle now and again. Is this representative of injectors that it gets better when the engine gets hot. I was wondering if there was...

Thank you for the feedback. spent this evening doing a refurb on the fuel regulator. Just started it and it seemed to start within 2 goes, much improvement on the 10 or so times. I am going to try it tomorrow to make sure it was not a fluke. The hunting still continues though so it might be a...

Just been doing more research. The gray white smoke could be down to the fuel pump low pressure but would like feedback on my readings first to confirm that . I looked at doing the regulator refurb 6 months ago but never got round to it. While the air intake was off I looked at it and it looks a...

I have been chasing a fault for ages that has gradually got worse this year. My freelander 1 td4 has been a struggle to start, Also more often than not it runs very lumpy on idle. When starting when she does fire there are plumes of grey smoke that is quite embarrassing. Even if i get the engine...

Thank you I have got them on order so might try and fit Saturday after looking at the diagnostic to see the pressure buildup. Thank you for your help

Ok thank you for the info. Just wanted to confirm that you have the m47 bmw

That looks like the ones. Thank you for the quick reply. I shall get these as soon as I can. There are three shown or is that just a generic picture. Thank you for your help. Also when I rev up slowly it does seem slow to respond so maybe this. Worth a try first.

Hi all interested in this thread as my freelander is having trouble starting which seems to be getting worse and running a little rough. Once hot not any problem and no noticeable lack in power as I tow a caravan. Thinking of replacing the O rings. Spoke to Land Rover and they can only identify...

just to give everyone an update on the brakes. i finally found some time to strip out the air intakes to have a good look, found the one going to the turbo very chafed so replaced that one but ran it round the bulkhead to the reservoir. the other one which was a shocker was the one going to the...

It did take a lot to get going initially. Quite daunting removing the head liner but the hardest part was removing the pillar trims without damaging anything. i would recommend a good large bladed trim removal tool so that nothing gets too stressed when levering off and i applied lsx silicon gel...

Thought i would just add a thread giving insight into replacing the head liner of my freelander. 2020 high temperature completely finished off the headliner and the foam was disintegrating in front of me leaving a brown dust all the time. I finally decided to take advantage of the shut down and...

yes all the layout looks original

Thank you all for the advice it does help the confidence. I have now ordered up 3 m of hose for that reason, as when i inspected the hoses last night there were parts that had warn through the outer cotton covering and abrasions on the rubber was significant, that's without removing the air...

thank you

My freelander 1 td4 has a problem with the brakes. Have checked the servo and pretty sure that is ok. When I brake for the first time all is ok but not brilliant. If I brake more in succession then the pedal pumps up and goes stiff as if nothing happening with the servo. My mechanic has checked...

hi , i have had a 03 TD4 freelander for 10 years . it has done me well. i have just recently found that the brakes become un responsive if i pump the pedal. i have checked the pipes and cannot hear, see anything obvious on my first look. Have been told it is probably the pump. I tried to locate...
