My bonnet cable snapped today. Please, what is the fastest way to relase the catch? Can it be done from below the car with the belly pan removed? Or should I cut through the grille to obtain access to the latch lever? I made an archive search and looked through previous threads but I did not...

I replaced the tailgate regulator but it refuses to work. It went to the bottom position when I reconnected the battery but nothing happens when I try to close it with the switch on the centre console. Neither does it work when i press the unlock button on the remote. When I press the "down" end...

When going over speed humps I hear a groaning nise for a second from the front end when the suspension is compressed. Anbody experienced something similar? Can't find anything wrong by visual inspection...

Where do i find wider fender flares for FL1?

My SRS light used to go out as normal after I switched the ignition on but would come back on after a couple of second. I suspected the rotary coupling to be broken so I took it out and measured the resistance in the airbag cable. The continuity was OK so I put it back together. Now the lights...

When I turn the ignition on the warning lamps go out as normal but the TC and HDC lights come on when the engine fires. The engine also misfires immediately after is has started but runs normally afterwards. The TC and HDC lights stay on. The fault appeared after I replaced the PAS pump. I also...

Today I bought a very cheap 2000 Open Air 1.8. It leaks coolant from the cylinder head joint and it also has a drivetrain noise that is inversely speed related. When moving very slowly the noise is worst and it disappears when the speed rises. It is hard to tell where it comes from but I think...

The air conditioning in my 2004 SE does not work. The indicator lamp on the A/C switch illuminates after I press it when the engine is running and the fan is blowing but the compressor's pulley clutch does not engage. Fuse no.4 in the engine compartment fuse box is OK :confused:

My 2004 SE petrol has as sensor fitted in the cam cover. It apparently reads the position of the exhaust camshaft. What does it use this signal for? Neither my MGF nor my previous (older) Freelanders have this..

I just bought a 2004 SE with a broken K-series engine. I drained three liters of water from the crankcase. The crankshaft bearings are probably ruined. Is it possible to take the engine out leaving the gearbox in place?

I have been offered a project FL which according to the owner's description has two main problems : - Engine oil pressure light won't go out after the engine is started (K-series engine). - No drive neither forwards nor backwards with gear engaged and clutch released. I believe I can just...

My fuel gauge does not work. The needle stays below zero even when the tank is full. What are the resistance values (full/empty) for the tank sender?

The needle in my fuel gauge stays below the red empty mark despite tank filled to the brim. And both LCD dislays (clock and odo/tripmeter) are not illuminated even when I put the ligths on. It has been like that since I bought the car so I do not known when the faults occured.I believe these...

The tailgate window will not go down. I think the regulator wire is broken. How do I take out the regulator unit when the glass is stuck in the top position?

Hi, I am new to this forum. I live in Norway where winter has now arrived and 4wd is needed. I currently drive without the propshafts and vcu because I think the coupling is about to seize. What is the correct torque it should take to turn the viscous coupling? Mine moves when i apply 120 Nm...
