Hi Nodge. Yea its what I thought most modern oils today are brilliant. I Just thought it was quite black the oil in my td4 and with the breathing issues thought I might give it a go. I hope i dont regret it. I'm sure it will be fine though. Yea it's a good price on that shell oil but as you...

Hi Guys. Good morning. I have bought some FORTE advance motor engine oil flush 400ml to run in the oil prior to my engine oil change. I have used this before and had very good results, no issues. This will be the first oil change since owning my TD4 and it has full service history but...

Hi. Yes watched many of your videos on YouTube they are brilliant. Yep watched this one too. Cheers for the reply though. Yea I'm hoping the intercooler is just full of old oil and rubbish. Will flush it out with petrol once I remove it. This little freelander is a little project its getting...

Just want to say with my OCD both my disco's will be cleaned shortly they haven't been out all winter so get dusty even in the garage!! rather them be dusty and dry with damp in them through winter. Cheers.

Hi Guys. Good morning. Well I got the front bumper off that was fun! Haven't got the intercooler off yet will do that tomorrow. Am in the process of cleaning and changing out rusty bolts, screw, nuts etc for stainless too of course. I will be cleaning and wax oiling all behind here. The man...

Well I am seriously doubting this crankcase breather mod I have done now. Wish I just put the new filter which I had got for it anyway. Oh well not to worry will purchase the filter securing clip etc from somewhere ebay etc. I am going to run her with this cyclone hosing mod in and check all...

If I remember when I removed the old filter the plastic piece which secures the filter in position broke it was so brittle but didn't matter due to the cyclone mod I fitted. Will have to get a new lid I think from a breakers or landrover. Once I clean out the intercooler will see how she goes...

Ahh OK was just wondering if the fuel rail pressure sensor harness came under a recall was hoping I could of got It for free then Ha, Ha not my luck. I know the breather mod is a little naughty on my TD5 but nobody has ever pulled her up before about it, I always take it to my main dealer for...

Hi Nodge. Cheers for the reply. Yea I must admit I still have that fitted the original fuel pressure fuel sensor harness I do see a lot of issues come from this. Weird mine never got changed. Was it a warranty recall this?? I will change it when I remove the inlet manifold AGAIN to change...

Hi Teezee. Cheers for the comments. She is getting there slowly. Only had her 7 months but its work in progress, getting her back together today after another manifold strip down clean up etc. Once I get the new silicone turbo hoses and clamps it will look much better under there too. Cheers...

Hi Andy. Have no idea in the costs but i dont think its alot for the part to change the original thermostat but its just the amount of work to do to change it. Cheers.

Hi paul, Yea fair point will use silicone grease for it. Thanks. Ross.

Thanks again, appreciate the tips. I don't think I have rubber grease but a little bit of normal grease should be OK I guess. Will do this mod once I get her back on the road and test her out but I do think my thermostat is stuck, so this needs doing and much easier then changing the original...

Thanks again for the help, sorry if I have gone a little off topic but will be back to the manifold /check engine light in the next day or two. When I took her out the other day it was about a 7 mile run but she didn't move above 1/4 ish it's was fairly mild too think it was Thursday. Anyway it...

I would go out and have a look outside but is raining heavy!!! Looking at my photos I guess it's because mine is a auto for the extra pipes, these then go to the gearbox cooler. Cheers. Ross.

Just watched the video above but my water pipework looks different is it because of the fuel burning heater or just modified hoses on the later fl1 TD4 engines. Guess I will have to put it up higher in the hose. What do you guys think? Cheers. Ross.

Hi Paul99. Thank you for the link. Cheers. Ross.

Hi Artic2. Cheers for a amazing reply. Really appreciate it. Yea I always assume some sort of oil residue in the inlet manifold but this just seems a little excessive. Though from my test with the coffee jar on the turbo pipe it proved no oil was coming from there but suppose its not quite the...

Hi Artic2. Cheers for the comments mate. She is getting there not how I like her yet but slowly getting there. A few on the outside, sorry for the pictures..... Anyway.... Thats a top job on cleaning the egr there like it. I did work on her for a short while tonight, starting taking...
