Cheers mate, will give it another go tomorrow......I know it should be easy as I've done these sort of things before, just never encountered this problem with this type of connector. I assumed it was a push and pull job, but you know I tried everything to get it to part but it wouldn't budge...

Hi all, received master earlier and been trying to fit it, but I cannot get the old one out :mad: I can un-couple it from the clutch under the dash, I can rotate it out of the bonnet, but the connection to the coupler is not for budging. I have tried every which way I can to uncouple it but no...

Having some clutch problems myself at the mo mate, and yes according to the info I've been given the clutch on the TD4 is a bastrod when things start to go wrong. It has a separate Master Cylinder and Slave Cylinder, Master is accessible through the engine compartment, the Slave is housed...

Railway Motors that would be I think........Just been to a local garage and they recommended them to me. I'm beginning to wonder if I need a new clutch at all as the more I'm reading the more it sounds like it's the master cylinder that's gone. It's an 02 TD4 btw. The clutch was fine...

Hi all, need a new clutch doing asap, anyone any recommendations in the Bolton or Preston/Chorley area. I have 3rd gear at the mo so dont want to risk travelling too far. Update.....Td4 02, 50k on the dial. possibility of it being a master cylinder problem? Regards Riki

Until the boffins create a 'Star Trek a likey' Transporter to allow me to travel to my destination in the shortest possible time I'd put performance over planet any time. Besides which, all this guff about saving the planet is all a load of bumfluff anyhoo. All our cars/TV's/Fridges etc may...

Hi folks, bit of weird noise coming from the front left as you look under the bonnet. It's a sort of tappy/whistly/wheezy noise that can be heard from inside the cabin whilst driving. No change on accel/brake just always there. Parked it up and popped the bonnet, when listening to the area...

Jeez, £240 for a for a copper solenoid ring........Wish I could get that sort of money! The kit to do this job sells on ebay for around 5% of that price and is a piece of cake to replace.......Hope everyone who has this problem reads this thread and saves themselves loads of dosh.....

Sometimes the water can come in from around the run off sill, or the rear lights if the seal has gone (found this on my ZR when I replaced the standard lights!). Also, water can enter via the bottom of the door. It runs into the inside of the door through the window rubber (where the window...

Hi all and thanx for the replies..... Being a safety belt I wouldnt be taking any risks, but I have known this problem being due to incorrectly fitted belts as Hippo has stated. I just wondered if it was a common issue with the way Landrover fitted their belts. Or possibly due to people...

Hi mate, just before you go spending loads of money on new sensors etc, I had a similar problem on mine a few weeks back and the problem was not sensor related.....It was due to the connector which attached to the starter motor from the battery. This connector had rotted away and was causing...

Hi all, just wondering if anyone has come across this problem before...... The centre rear seatbelt is tighter than a tight thing in a vice.....It just wont budge. I've took the cover off at the back and had a play around to see if there was something jamming it, but I couldnt see owt. Is...

Just to give you an update on my prob, it turns out it was the connection between the starter motor and the alternator which was causing my problem. The crimp clip which connected to starter has completely corroded and was not tight on the thread (which had un-threaded at the base???)...

Where on the hippo is the alternator located, I have a dodgy shoulder which inhibits my movements somewhat, so is it an easy'ish job to get at? Just to add, car wouldnt start today, instrument panel was lit up like a chrimbo tree, then the battery light went really dim, so I though another dud...

Update: Today, car has been parked up overnight. Last run at around 1am for a good hour or so. Went to start, click click click nowt. Then click, nowt, click nowt, then started. After getting it started I took it for a drive and that is where things became worse. First I had a driver flash...

You forgot to mention the all important cost of modding it, and how much more your insurance now is?

Hi all, 1st post (longish so apologies) and I, or should I say my Freeloader, has developed some common problems. My mech skills I would rate as intermediate, as long as I have a trusty Haynes and a shed load of confidence (I own a MG ZR which has had every problem known and then some! sneeze...
