    Valeo: Cibie headlamps

    Hi I've been looking into replacement headlamps types for the 88/109 and I'm wondering if Valeo globe Cibie 082369 are ok as direct replacements! I believe these are also replacements for old 1970s BL cars such as Allegro, Princess etc. Thanks

    Would a vacuum leak cause staring problems?

    In your original post, you've replaced the battery! Was there a reason for replacing the battery? Do you still have the old battery? If you do! I would refit it. Timing!! The engine timing being out, wont flatten the battery. If anything, it will take ages for the vehicle to start (or it wont...

    whiring sound on accelaration

    Normally when you press the clutch Hmmm I'd hazard a guess ;) it's you fan belt. Life the bonnet, start the vehicle, pull the acl cable, see if you hear the noise. If that dosen't work? then I could suggest other things.

    damn freelander - taken as much as i can now

    If I have read this thread correctly? you are saying; when you try to turn the engine over (third key turn), all the ignition light go out! is that correct? If you've replaced the ignition (tested the replacement part before fitting) and its still doing the same. Sounds like its 'shorting out'...

    R reg 1.8 over heating problems

    mines was the same as yours, no white smoke from either the exhaust/under the bonnet, no visual water leaks, oil is nice and black. I'd check the heater matrix and pipes too and from engine/radiator. When it starts to over-heat? put your heaters on full blast! that will bring the temp down...

    Freelander (2002) Rear Door (Tailgate) won't open!! Please help!

    I have the same problem with my 99 FL. I believe I have tracked the problem down to the rear-tail gate lock. Mines was making a double clicking noise and the rear window would come down a inch or so. I'm awaiting on the new lock coming from ebay. Land Rover Freelander rear door latch ALR7787 on...

    Advice on ABS sensor

    Down hill descent + jerking

    Brake selonoids? I'm guessing you mean the 4 ABS sensors? Are the ABS and TC amber lights on also? (dash lights). Disconnecting the battery will reset these! however I suspect its your VDU (think I've got that right). The link below is not related to your problem but the pictures will...

    clutch slippin

    Generally (all car types) probably just the clutch kit. You can try looking up the price online, however I think the biggest cost will be labour. I've never fitted nor paid someone to replace a FL clutch kit! can't help with prices/time labour. Phone around.

    Freelander in the snow

    That was the second thing i checked on my FL (cylinder head was 1st). I believe removing the prop is common with frontiers also. I don't know much about FLs but your boots look like road ones.
