update on TD4 running on rape seed oil mix. Still working just fine all summer ate about 35%. Now with temperatures dropping have lowered mix to 10-15%.

Ming, Thanks for the update on the veg oil. I am now at 10% and followed your advise on the slow build up. As weather warms will increase the %. Have another question for you. Owners hand book lists weight of TD4 as 1550 to 1650 kg. Short of finding some scale can you tell me what can be...

Hi Ming, Hows the veg oil working so far ? I am still waiting to see the results before I try it in my TD4. My old skoda has been on it (rape seed oil) at about 10-15% in winter and as high as 70% this summer and all is ok. My friends fiat TDi stilo is on a 50% now for nearly two years and...

Hey willo, I just saw the video, thats a good joke all right! I know I getting on but as far I can remember the rocks and sand have not changed too much in the last 50 years. You go romping through the dunes like that you better have a good tow truck to get you back. tires were all wrong too...

We have a 2003 TD4 with which we use to pull a horse trailer. The road law here (Italy) limits the total weight of tow vehicle and loaded trailer to 3500 kg . More than this requires a special B extension certificate. We found that the freelander weight (1550 1600 ) fits perfectly with a trailer...

I have been wondering about how the veg oil thing is going in the td4 freelanders. Have any our you run it yet? I note that ming says he was thinking about trying it and somewhere else somebody was using it too but I can not find that post yet. I too am not that brave yet. My neighbor has been...

Hi, nice to meet you all. This is my first Landrover, 2003 Freelander TD4. I have always had jeeps and dunebuggys before. I luckly found this forum after giving up searching for the fuel filter following Mr. Haynes Manual. Located in sunny southern Italy, the TD4 hauls my daughter's horse around...

Jerry, thanks for the information, I crawled under today and found it. When I finaly got it down enough to see what was there I saw two black tubes with the rubber pipes on them. My question is are both of those things the filter? I will not change filters soon but I just like to know and be...
