Hi all I've had a good search, might be me but can't find a thread that lists or provides details and specifications of the fluids required for a Freelander 2 TD4/SD4. Can anyone point me in the right direction, or perhaps list here for the following, and we get a thread covering all required...

What a silly issue to encounter.... I'm removing the inner wheel arch, or at least trying, to get to the crank sensor. Of course, the made of chocolate it seems plastic nuts just spin and won't unthread. Any ideas how to resolve and get them off? I'll replace with proper nuts, so now need to...

Hi all quick sanity check as I usually use ramps. I need to jack the front to get the wheel off to do the sensor and check the turbo hose. I've got side bars/steps on mine. Can't see the best hacking point to lift it to get the wheel off. Is it the rectangle shaped area with the 2 holes in that...

Hi all Not been on here a while, generally had a good running FL2 SD4 and kept it serviced and change what needs doing. Recently had the hose from intercooler, into the the throttle body blow. Replaced with a cheap amazon next day delivery job to get the car back on the road. Still on there...

Hello all We have a FL2 SD4 2013 with just over 49,000 miles on it, FSH (maindealer) until we bought last spring (2019) and I've done the oil changes myself on it since. I've searched this forum and google for a problem experienced out of nowhere this morning. The car has been perfect since...

Any advice please on refilling a 4.6 V8 cooling system from empty, I drained down the system and now want to refill. Should I do it from the expansion tank only, or is there any value in additionally filling from areas like the top hose directly into the rad and block for example. I want to...

... the flow of coolant around the engine please? Im after the full flow details, i.e does the cool water come out the top or bottom of the rad (top makes sense compared to where thermostat is) As in my other threads, the system is perssurised, is it normal to overflow eventually from the...

... for my 4.6HSE. Guys can anyone point me in the direction of where I can get one urgently. None of the motor factor places seem to stock, and im not that close to a stealer. Any idea of cost? Mail order options?? Basically, don't think mine is opening fully and it's back pressurising...

Ok, battery hasn't drained and is strong - been on since Monday now. EAS however is just staying at max ride height, wont come down?? Dropped to ride height on a 15 min journey last night eventually, and I pumped it back to full when got home to see if it dropped over night. It hasn't and...

Ok, starting a new thread on this, to keep it focussed and deal with the route cause of my recent problem. EAS has been reset, car now back to working ride heights. It's been sat at full height overnight and no drop in height on any airbag. BUT... when running the engine, the EAS pump comes...

Hi Bit of a problem, recieved EAS cable and software, plugged in laptop read codes for EAS and did reset BUT now all i have is about every warning possible on the display on the dashboard, alternator fault, gearbox failure, traction failure, etc etc etc. No rev counter and temp guage goes...

Guys Is there a temporary fix to coolant loss through the heater o-rings by disconnecting the two pipes in the engine bay and putting a new pipe on, connecting the inlet/outlet pipes together in the engine bay, to create a direct link between the two. Basically, my o-rings are leaking causing...

Hi all Ok, I’ve now had my 99 P38 for 2 months and covered a shade under 2000 miles, relatively trouble free, though I’ve had a few quirky yet expected things. One thing that happened yesterday and driving in to work today though – engine was running rough, not too bad, but noticeably with a...

... whilst I was away, and now I'm back, so hi all. Couple of things since returning tho - Battery kept enough charge to crank the engine and start it first time no probs. However, rear drivers side air suspension had lowered, and the pump didnt kick in. Started to drive home (as left it at...

Is this normal? After running fo 45mins on way in to work, checked coolant level, which was ok, took off cap, bit of steam and water in tank quite hot! (could just reach with a finger) Water level didnt change, no back pressure. Temp was fine all the way to work, sitting just left of center, as...

99/V, 85k miles, done a couple of hundred miles and so far so good. Drives fantastically, and looks great. One thing I noticed at the weekend tho, overnight the rear suspension lowered itself to park height whilst the front stayed up, I suspected an air leak to the rear, but since it hasn't...

Hi All What could be the cause of the milometer / LED dash display on a RR not being lit up to one side, one I'm looking at is quite dull to the left. Bulb? If so difficult to fix? Minor it seems unless there's a more fundamental reason its not working correctly. Also, where is the coolant...

99/V Facelift Insurance Cat D total loss write off - stolen / recovered 85000 miles FSH not all main dealer, recent ones not Very clean condition inside and out, good paint, no dents/rust/scratches. interior as good as i've seen. Everything works, it even starts, goes forwards, backwards, left...

to 99 onwards when looking in the engine bay. On the earlier models, the oil filler is on the right it seems, where as I seem to recall its on the left when looking at later models. What's the difference in the engines if so. I can see the obvious difference on the big square block v the alloy...

... a sealed environment, i.e no overflow? Thanks.
