    For Sale FL1 - Various Parts and Accessories

    Ideally I'd prefer if someone could collect from Sheffield (S11) as some of the items are a little too big and awkward to ship. If someone wishes to take all the items then I'm sure a deal can be done as it will help clear some space. I'll look to add photos shortly. SOLD - LAND ROVER...

    Went to take out my Pierburg MAF...and it's a Bosch

    I thought I'd post here as this relates to the Synergy and Pierburg MAF that was in my FL1 TD4. I bought the ron box and pierburg MAF some while back. They've been running for some time with the box switch set for the pierburg MAF, it's been running well and never a warning light. Anyway with...

    I thought it was running a little rough...

    If you saw my other post about recommendations for selling a non-runner then this will make more sense. I went through a series of what started as starting problems linked to fueling, went through an inline pump, high pressure pump and new injector before it seemed to be sorted. Then on the way...

    Freelander 1 SOLD - Non-running FL1 TD4 - For breaking or scrap

    I'm open to offers - the car is at a garage in Sheffield (S7) and would need collection. The car felt like it was running on 3 cylinders, misfiring/vibrating and just about running. The garage checked injectors etc and found (this is where my lack of knowledge doesn't help) that the cylinder...

    Freelander 1 Salvage/Breaking in Sheffield?

    Any recommendations on places that may be interested in my 2003 non-running Freelander TD4? I had posted before and upon a recommendation have tried Bradgate Motors and Motorohog. Best offer was for £125 - the garage the car is sat at have someone who'll take it for £150. Is that the best I...

    Freelander 1 Calling it a day - advice on how/where to move the car on?

    It's time to call it a day with my 2003 FL1. I had problems with starting and I was captive of a garage far from home who changed the low pressure fuel pump and an injector and fleeced me in the process. The car carried on with the starting issue, in fact it broke down on a journey back home and...

    Freelander 1 Time to spend on repairs - how frugal can I be?

    There were a few advisories on my last MOT and given the clunking/knocking appears to be worsening it's time to get them sorted. The following were picked up; NSF Track Rod End (£60), NSF ARB linkage (£72) and rear diff bush (£70). I would guess changing in pairs makes most sense? The price...

    Limp mode and then won't start at all

    Looking for some advice on what I can check myself. I may well be able to get the RAC to have a look depending on what my cover includes. I was on the motorway and the car dropped into a kind of limp mode. It would struggle to get near 70 and any incline then 50 was top whack. No warning...

    Clutch Problems

    The car has been fine then all of a sudden on a fairly long journey back to Sheffield I noticed it harder and harder to get it into a gear. It got to the point where I left the motorway and in a queue found I couldn't find a gear at all. I noticed the clutch pedal wasn't returning all the way...

    Clamp Bolt for Rear Silencer?

    My rear silencer has developed a great big hole where the piece of metal should be that is routed through the mounting rubber. I've picked up a new rear silencer and decided to have a go swapping it over. There's a clamp bolt that seems to hold the silencer to the intermediate exhaust...

    Wiper Arm Removal

    It looks like I have a problem with the linkage as the drivers side wiper isn't working. I've hit a problem straight away, prying the wiper arms off of the spindles. In the Haynes manual it talks of prying them off with a flat bladed screwdriver but they aren't budging despite being soaking in...

    Brake Service - Parts Deals/Tips?

    I've been looking to do the brakes on my 2003 TD4 for a while. I've no record of when they were last done, the front discs and pads are pretty worn and I already have some Pagid replacements courtesy of the last eurocarparts offer. I just need to order some replacement caliper retaining bolts at...

    Caliper Retaining Bolts - Size and Removal Tips

    Does anyone know what size the caliper retaining bolts are and where they can be found/ordered from? I'm guessing they're 7/16" going by the socket that nearly fits on those on my car. Who ever worked on them last made a right mess, graunched one and rounded off the other which leads me to my...

    Removing the Tailgate Trim

    Are there any tips for releasing the clips around the side? At the moment I'm resisting using brute force as I suspect the clips will break. The clips at the top look more forgiving as it looks like once the bottom and side are released the trim will lift straight up and out. Cheers

    Advice: Fair price for 4 x 16" wheels

    I have some AT tyres and simply need some 16" rims to put them on, cheaper the better. I've been offered a set of 4 of the 5-spoke 6J x 16" rims with the dimples, so should be the ET35 offset which is what I need. The price is £130 excluding postage. Having had a look at what's available it...

    4 x Freelander 16" Wheels - 5 x 114 ET35

    I've some AT tyres waiting for a set of 'cheap' rims. I've seen a fair few of the 6J x 16 on eBay but very few people seem able to confirm the offset. I know the older rims on pre-2001 models had an ET46 offset. If it helps I can collect from Sheffield and Durham, surrounding areas and...

    Salvageable Engine Parts

    After my engine gave up the ghost I've managed to source a suitable TD4 replacement; demonstrated runner, warranty and only 40k miles backed up by some documentation from the donor car. It comes with the injectors, inlet manifold, high pressure pump but NOT the turbo, alternator, starter or...

    Good place to source a TD4 engine?

    Just been reading a thread about someone else's TD4 sounding like a hedge cutter, result was a broken crank shaft. My TD4 decided to pack in whilst on a particularly busy part of the A1M last Friday. Sounded very much like a hedge cutter, eventually I got it transported to a garage I trust in...

    Headlight Bulbs

    I've a 2003 non-facelift Freelander 1, one thing that is noticeable particularly on the unlit country roads round where I live is that the headlights aren't particularly bright. I've searched and not seen much discussion on the subject. Is there a better set of bulbs that can be used and are...
