    There is a lot of cheap nasty stuff out there, I work for an engine parts company we supply Glasser/Victor Reinz for head gaskets and head kits as well as King race bearings etc. We used to do ACL bearings but they went bustut seems to be what the reconditioners want. Always buy the best you...

    Trying to bleed brakes but no fluid is being shifted

    I have the Delphi car interface that connects to my laptop and it has under the |Freelander1 brakes and ABS systems the facility to bleed the brakes using the ABS modulater. It bleeds both the fronts as one and the rears as one using the ABS modulater to do it rather than the brake pedal so...

    I work for an engine parts supply company and we just last week had a faulty head gasket returned to us the sealant one one corner around the water jacket hole had become detatatched . It wasn't a Freelander gasket but it does happen every now and then it may be worth checking

    Stuck Injector TD4

    Good to know although it is an old trick Diesel fitters have been using for years, although some injectors just will not move at all then comes the big slide hammer and lots of swearing

    icarsoft i930

    Mine has bluetooth as well . It seems to work well which is what I wanted and cheaply. I understand the argument regarding time effort etc these companies put into these things but I'm sure it isn't £1654 + VAT per unit.The mark up must be enormous on the things hence the cloned units...

    icarsoft i930

    Er I would have assumed so as the distributer want £1654 +VAT for one so at £65 I didn't for an instant assume it was the genuine one, but as long as it dose what it says on the box I'm not worried and as I said if it lasts 1 year-18 months I haven't lost my left kidney:D

    icarsoft i930

    Yep thats the one mine has 2014 software with it instead of 2013. It appears good value as I looked at a distributers site and the same item (granted it had updates) was £1654 + VAT. How they justify some of the prices is beyond me. I work for an Engine parts company and I know what our mark up...

    icarsoft i930

    It does seem to cover a lot of different modles and makes which is what I really wanted. I did look at the icarsoft i930 which at £99 -109 isn't expensive but then Iwould still need another unit that does other makes as all the kids have cars and I look after the wrinklies Rover 75 as well as...

    icarsoft i930

    I just bought a Delphi VCI and software and it works on my 2001 1.8 Freelander it does engine, ABS ,SRS, works the actuators and rear window as well as turning the beeps on/off and it works with most cars not just the Freelander. I did look at the icarsoft i930 but wanted some thing that...

    VCU repair kits ???

    Got to agree don't buy a dodgy one with whats at stake and the cost if it goes wrong. Bells are the ones to use and for around £250 with bearings its worth the cost.
