Yer, I asked the garage if it could be repaired but they said no, to close to side wall. Just don't really have the money to get 2 new AT2's at the mo hence why i'm looking at a cheap nasty part worn on e-bay for now. Just don't wanna do my car damage by going down this route. :)

Hi, I have a problem with a tyre. Basically, i have a set of genral grabber AT2's on my freelander, had them on a while now. the front have prob about 4 -4.5mm of treat left and the rear about 6.5 - 7mm of tread. The car has just been for its MOT and failed as there is a screw through one of the...

Hi, can anyone offer me any advice on this.. I've got a set of general grabber AT2's (all terains) on my freelander TD4 (03 plate) tryes are about 5 months old. My wife being a great driver drove into some undergroth, hit something and took a big chunk out of the side wall of the front...

Its an electric mirror - electric glass mover but not electric fold in type. Freelander TD4 5 door by way. 03 plate.

Hi, just wondered if anybody has had any experience of replacing or repairing wing mirrors. Basically my dilemma is that my mirror has been hit by a car or kicked- its knocked the mirror right back and now it just swings loose. This next bit isn't easy to explain but i'll give it a go... I've...

I had to do mine, not that difficult, just aquard and time consuming. Got my solinoid from scrap yard - £20, worked a treat. Good luck.

Hummm, my hand brake was sticking a few months ago, the problem then went away and now the hand brake doesn't work unless u really pull it on hard then seems fine. Passed its MOT yesterday tho so guess they must see it as safe. I always leave it in gear and avoid steep hills to be sure ;)

Agree. You could really do with checking the SWR. You prob will find that if you put a metal plate under the ant the performance will improve. For the ant to work properly and radiate signal out you need a ground plane. Usually if the ant is on the roof the metal roof works perfectly but by...

Ooow, one more thing i didn't make clear in origional post is it is the back door (to back seats), not the boot door (tail gate)

I took the door card off to take a look, cut the plastic sheet away and found metal cable everywhere. I assume should be neatly round the white pulley thing? well, its not! its all come off and tangled round everything, cable is also badly kinked and frayed it places so i guess i need a new one...

Sorry, didn't make it clear, fluid just over flowed from reservoir when i wound calliper back in, not from calliper it self.

Hummm, No unfortunately i didn't think to do anything as intelligent as cleaning the disks. They didn't appear to be that worn but maybe i should invest in some new ones. Yes the rust is all the way round just on the inner and outer, the section in the middle is fine i guess this is where the...

Hi, can anyone offer me any advice on this. My brake pads on the front of my 03 plate TD4 were getting quite worn so I changed them my self about 3 weeks ago. i've done them before on other cars i've owned. All seemed to go smoothly apart from a little spilt brake fluid when i wound the piston...

Hello, Hopefully someone might be able to offer me some advice on this one... My back window drop glass on my TD4 (03 plate, 5 door) wound down earlier but failed to wind back up. i can hear the electric motor making a noise like it is moving something but the glass stays where it is. I...

Had a simular prob with mine but on drivers door. The solinoid cannot be repaired as its a sealed unit. I got one from scrap yard for £20 (3 door and 5 door are the same) and after getting very annoyed with the job got it back together and it worked. Quite fiddley to do, took me and my mate...

i had that problem on my 03 plate TD4 5 door, got the looking mech from a scrap yard, (part came off a 3 door but still fit fine) paid £20 for it and spent about 4 hours getting annoyed with it. very fiddly but got there in the end. Good luck. Chris.

I got one off e-bay, was very slightly to deep and door hit it when i tried to shut it, modified it slightly and its perfect now. bad news is i've got no information about it so not much help really. sorry.

Hi, just a quick question... My mother in law's freelander (1.8 petrol) has just failed its MOT on emissions. Its a shed and there looking to upgrade but they wanted to get it through this MOT first. Just wondered if anyone has any suggestions on a quick and cheap fix. (think i'm being hopeful...

I did mine myself last summer. Used the spray on waxoyl. well, started off as spray on then sprayer clogged up so painted it on. Its easy enough just very messy. Be much easier on a ramp or with a pit but i managed by just jacking car up one side at a time. Good luck. Chris

Had exactly the same problem with my 03 plate TD4. Got the master cylinder changed about 6 months ago and so far so good. I was told by the garage it could be either the master cylinder or the slave but seen as the master is easier to change that is the first step. Luckily this cured it and...
