Anyone with experience of towing a 'van' with an Al-Ko 'friction type' hitch and a Freelander got around the problem of the lever catching on the spare wheel when hitching and unhitching. Al-Ko do have an alternative handle but it's both expensive and poorly designed. Currently I either remove...

Having found some slight but odd tyre wear on the rear of my Freelander (outer wear on OS and inner wear on NS) I followed 'Hippo's' advice to check the VCU. Tippex test - OK, they moved. Bar with weight test - the wheel turned nicely with 5kg on a 1.2metre bar. Next up is an alignment check...

The auto box on our Freelander ( 2003 TD4) has developed a weird fault. Sometimes when you select 'D' it goes in with a clunk and if you try to drive it as soon as it changes gear it makes an awful noise like it's trying to engage more than one gear at once. By trial and error I've found that if...

2002 - Two pump model Freelander 1. Bit of a story so bear with me please. Had a non-start situation a while ago and found, from advice on here, that a tap on the under bonnet pump may work. It did. Knowing that it would fail at some point I have just fitted a new pump and filter (also but...

Our 2001 Freelander Auto has been absolutely fine until yesterday morning. It does have a slight reluctancy below 2000 rpm as pretty normal. Started it up (instant start as normal) Try to accelerate and it has virtually no effect. Continued pushing of the throttle eventually got it up to 2000...

Found a bit of a problem when trying to connect my Coachman caravan up to our Freelander 1. The friction lever on the caravan which has to be upright when hitching up fouls on the spare wheel. Appreciate any ideas on how to get around this ?

If you are planning a trip to France. As from 4th January 2012 all Sat-navs in use in France must NOT have camera-location software installed. Both Garmin and Tom Tom have issued an upgrade that removes the POi and replaces it with a "Danger-Zone" POi. Crazy, I know but be advised that if...

On the top of our Freelanders gearbox (auto) there is a vent-pipe. Should this be connected to something or just left open ? Behind the engine on the drivers side I found a black steel pipe or rod that comes up vertical and ends in a 'U' bend just behind the oil-filler cap. What is it ? Also...

Just a comment on a paint chip kit I've just purchased from eBay. Simply brilliant, it comes with the paint, a two-pack lacquer and some ingenious little applicator sticks for application. Way better than the usual crappy brush you get with most kits. eBay - The UK's Online Marketplace...

Found and joined this site recently having acquired a Freelander for my wife and have found it to be most informative. What I am struggling with though is the foul and unnecessary language 'F' & 'C' etc, words to be found in lots of posts. The 'anything goes' forum is fine and the warnings are...

I had reason to glance inside my spare wheel carrier this morning (changing the brakelight bulb) and couldn't believe what I found. The whole thing was full, as in to the top, of rotting leaf mold. For those not aware of this I suggest you have a look. Now clean and any water getting in goes...
