I'm putting in an engine from an MG and noticed the casting numbers are different. The engine that came in my Freelander has part number LCF102620 on the cylinder block, and only now I noticed it does not have a serial number, that part of the engine, along with the enige code is perfectly clear...

I fitted an aluminium inlet manifold (TF 135) to my Freelander. After fitting it I found out that the one I have does not have the thread fitted for the air temperature sensor. Would anyone know why this sensor is so close to the cylinder head? I'm thinking about putting it somewhere I can put...

My 1.8 '99 Freelander failed the MOT due to to high emissions. I replaced the Lambda sensor but I am not sure if it is working correctly. I have a Hawkeye and sometimes I get the message O2 Sensor status not OK. But I have learnt that this is normal when the sensor/engine/manifold is still...

I am starting to loose coolant on my 1.8 '99 Freelander. I was already planning to change the clutch, so my plan now is to take the engine out and do the clutch and the gasket at the same time. Taking the engine out may be overkill, but I'm always in for an extra challenge! :) Just to be sure I...

I few months ago there was an article about the Freelander in the Land Rover Monthly magazine. Does anyone have this, or knows which issue this was? Thanks!

Why do you hardly see any Land Rovers compete in the Dakar rally? Ever? If Land Rovers really are the best 4x4xfar they should be winning non stop! :confused:

I replaced both the auxiliary and the steering pump belt on my '99 1.8 petrol engine today. Well at least I tried to... After applying the correct tension to the auxiliary belt I tried to fasten the bolt that keeps the tension wheel itself in place. After just a few turns the bolt snapped...

What is the correct way to rotate the tyres on a Freelander? I keep getting different advice from everyone... :confused:

Is anyone on this forum from The Netherlands, especially from the north? I have been working on my Freelander since a few months, now and then I run into problems and are looking for someone with similar problems or who knows how to solve them. Normally I don't really like the idea of a...

I'm replacing the rear differential on my '98 Freelander for a new one from Ashcroft. When I removed the old diff the Haynes manual told me to mark the flange on the diff and on the prop shaft, so you can place it back the same way as it was. Since I am replacing the diff a marker would not...

Replaced a broken slave/master hydraulic clutch kit this weekend. And it worked! After doing so I noticed that the engine is shaking quiet a lot, we'll to be honest I don't really know what's normal but this did get my attention. It starts and runs perfectly, no problems. Also no 'under...

I brought my '98 Freelander 1.8 to the garage this week for it's annual MOT check, 'APK' is wel call it here in The Netherlands. Some rubbers where worn and replaced no big problems. The bigger problem was the emission check, the HC value (whatever that may be) was somewhere around 400, this...

In September I placed a set of 4 BFG AT's on our '98 Freelander, awesome tires! We are coming up to the first 10,000 KM mark with these tires, and from what I understand this would be a good time to rotate the tires location on the vehicle. BF Goodrich themselves advise to move the back...
