Couple of us from dorset going up early, anyone else from the forum going?

Mine is exmoor, & i dont have any issues with it, the metal work around the door tops & screen needed a bit of tweeking, but what doesn't on a series ? It doesn't leak !

Here is a few pics of my blue one with black exmoor hood, for inspiration !! [/IMG] [/IMG]

Before entering the eka code trying turning the key only once instead of the four times it states in the handbook !

The top switch fail fault relates to large capacitors inside the ecu which are used to fire the injectors, i reckon you need to at least get the ecu tested & will probably need a replacement !

You need to use a timed relay or will burn out the element in the front screen !

Repair the outside with liquid metal, then search for something called a timesert (ebay or decent nut & bolt type place) far superior repair than any helicoil & has the advantage of being solid rather than a helicoil , which is a bit like a spring in that it has gaps between the threads.

With out the LR special tool - yes.

R12 (old gas) has a thread on the outside of the connector R134A (newer gas) does not have a thread on the connector Would have thought you would have R134a on a 95 year vehicle but not definite.

Is the leak at the front or rear of the vehicle?

I have a passport, ill come & do it for you for a fee :):D

That will be your spigot bush in the back of the crank, common TD5 problem, needs gearbox out & flywheel off to change.

First thing i would do is check the relays & associated wiring under the drivers seat, they are a common problem & give the faults you have described.

Service brake efficiency is referring to your foot brake - Park brake efficiency would be referring to your handbrake !

Before you go taking the head off, you need to take the exhaust manifold off & check the core plug in the side of the head isn't leaking, could be a very easy fix, I have known these to leak, even had one come in that was only finger tight !!

Early TD5s had plastic dowels to keep the head in place, once it has overheated these dowels melt & go out of shape, allowing the head to move slightly & cause the gasket to leak, this is the most likely cause of your problem.

Have all the injectors gone back into the original cylinders they came out from ? Each injector is coded to its specific cylinder & can only be changed with diagnostic equipment .

I have fitted the 40mm kit to one of my freelanders, the inner wings still need modifying to clear the steering arms, I also had to modify the front hubs where the struts bolt on in order to get the camber right & make it drive like a normal one.
