    Rasping noise when driving

    Am getting a strange rasping noise almost like a sucking of air which i only hear when the car is moving. You can't hear it when stationary. I can't quite tell where it's coming from. What might it be? It sounds like Darth Vadar is hiding in my glove box. Could it be anything to do with the...

    Tyre pressures - larger tyres

    I've just upgraded to BF Goodrich ATs. They are 215/70/16s. Put 32 psi in all round but they look a bit low... feel ok driving but look low particularly on the front. What do folk recommend as tyre pressures for this size? Car is otherwise a standard 2005 TD4.

    Urgent wheel query

    Hi folks I am after some 16" wheels for my 55 plate TD4 so I can get AT tyres. I have found some on ebay fitted with General Grabbers (ideal) - but they are off a 1998 model car, and I am sure I read somewhere that pre 2001 wheels don't fit on the later Freelander 1 models. Advice would be...

    Fuel Burning Heater Query

    I have a 2005, '55' plate TD4. Will it have an FBH? I have never heard any noise in a morning, and it has been VERY cold recently. If it does, how can I make it work? Should I buy one of these remote controls available on ebay, and if so, how do I programme it to work with my FBH? Thank...

    Loud bang/clunk....

    It sounds like a stone pinging up and hitting the bodywork loudly, but it is too frequent and appears to always come from the left side of the vehicle generally when travelling in a straight line. Very peculiar. Nothing seems to be running badly. But I am worried that something is breaking...

    Urgent tyre query

    I have a Freelander 1 (Facelift). Currently it is running Marshal Roadventure tyres, but these were fitted when I bought the car, and I haven't had it long. The wheel size is 17" and the tyres fitted are 225/55/17s. Do I have to stick with this size or can I increase the width and depth of...

    All terrain tyres - 225/55/17 - advice needed

    Hi So what is best? I want something that's ok on the road, but provides maximum grip in wet mud and snow, and at the same time does not massively affect comfort, noise or fuel economy. The Grabber AT2s do not appear to be available in this size. What about the Grabber UHP? Thanks in advance...

    Synergy 2 vs ECU Remap

    I have been looking into the options, and it seems that a dedicated, taylored to the TD4 remap or the Synergy 2 are the best options. They say the Synergy 2 is easy to fit (although easy to fit for someone mechanically minded and easy to fit for joe ordinary are often two different things) and...

    Front light grills

    I have a 2005 facelift TD4. I have bought light grills for it. The rear ones were a doddle. However, the front ones require drilling and messing around, and the instructions are a bit pants. Any advice for fitting - even if "Take it to someone to get it done." - much appreciated. Thanks

    East Yorkshire

    Hi, I am from the East Riding. I am new to the whole world of 4x4, mainly buying one to get me to work in winter, and for dog transportation purposes, but I am also keen to use for what it was built for... maybe not hardcore off-roading, but green laning would be a start. I have read the...
