Hi folks. Could someone possibly help. I'd like to change my user name from "MacGyver" to "RobsonRoverRepair". It matches my YouTube blog, and I've several of my old Freelander videos uploaded to it. Ps, I'm not a business, just a blog, the name stuck when I fixed an extremely minor...

That is a tidy bus sir. Perfectly modded.

True. Transmission readings are a nightmare. Few Freelanders I've saw on rolling roads have actually ended up having less torque as the rear wheels would occasionally drag and so on.

Two diesel variants, both mechanically identical. 115ps, and 135ps. Both generate same 300nm or 220 foot pounds of torque. None vnt turbo, much smaller turbo actually is same used on the Renault 1.5 dci engines. Compate it to a td4 or L series and it looks miniscule. My own 75 is throwing out...

I don't understand why the freelanders get such low power out of a vnt turbo with decent sized wheel, decent exhaust system, better injectors, intake and intercooler setup that 75s (which have a much small turbo) yet they will throw out 150 to 155 mafless all day long.

Swapped for a bunch of rover 75 parts so not so bad. Have a zt hand brake grip and gear knob that I want to try and get to work on the freelander next.

Following on, small but essential mod bought and fitted. Full leather steering wheel, with controls. Sadly don't work with my budget radio but nice to have for the future. Then it was brake pad time and I had a clean nightmare. One of the carrier to caliper bolts snapped in half, 2 hours...

Well I will speak to him in morning and see if he's up for a group buy again.

I can assure you that my mafless 75 does significantly more than 30mpg.... The 160 rover 75 map was made by a bunch of guys on the 75 forums. It's designed for different injectors, turbos, exhaust diameters all sorts. And people seem to get mixed opinions on its efficiency. A mafless remap...

Here are some. Pics from yesterday's meet in Castlebellingham, Ireland where owners North and south had their first official meet that we arranged. The sport, standard, big tyres and then 50mm lift comparisons shot. A great meet and great crack.

I've been getting very confusing reports from three local land rover parts companies about what fuel pump my freelander td4 has. She's a commercial van, November 2002 td4, vin number 3a243368. Had the usual loss of power and warning light. Now one company insisted at commercials where s...

Look at what the nationals typically drive. Means those parts are cheap and available.

Got what I needed. After trailer hire, made over 100 as the cat was worth 30.

Another one gone today also. Scrapped said beyond worthwhile saving but it gave many parts to my van and the car was originally free so can't complain. Clutch, slave, shock x 2, 4 tyres and more would have been needed for it.

They often do when driving such 4x4s through water, as they have to try and restart their hearts at the thought of replacing their tratter chassis for a 2nd time in 5 years.

Can't see it doing much but you never know. Its frontal "impact" air and under air flow on our cars being so raised. The collaway bumper went a long way to addressing this imo Its actually shorter than standard, big gaps in it, allows air to flow under also. I always wondered did...

Ignore some of the negative comments. http://www.rimmerbros.co.uk/Item--i-LF1040 Outta stock but plenty of replicas out there. Imo a Freelander could definitely use an aero kit, the wall that is the front bumper is 90% of the problem, and the wing mirrors being basically flappy high...

Northern Ireland here. =)
