    Freelander 2 (LR2) Freelander 2 clutch failure

    So I've just crossed Europe to Poland without a hitch, second time the FL2 has done this run with me but on Wednesday, in city traffic I put my foot on the clutch and it went to the floor... Oh ****, but as it was driving I managed to get to the side of the road, lucky as Warsaw is unforgiving...

    ALRC Regs, Posted here cos no-one looks in the other bit.

    Stupid question maybe. I know there has always been a rule about fitting an extra throttle spring on the carb, but I am about to start trialling a diesel for the first time so I wondered if this reg still applied as the injection pump has a good spring already. Problem is, i've been looking...

    Why do I hate shopping at Craddocks?

    It really is strange to say, but I DO dislike shopping at Craddocks, but they are 5 mins from my house, they stock everything I need for my Landie and they are not the dearest... OK not always cheapest either, but convenience is sometimes better than cost... Today I spent £40 there, I'm...

    Gearbox Removal, Disco 1

    Has anyone here tried to get the gearbox out of a Disco from underneath? I've done a classic Rangie in the past with the floor out. Is "floor out" the only option on a Disco. Maybe it could be done if the transfer box was removed first? Any thoughts? Thanks all for any input.
