    Freelander 1 Wiper question?

    Afternoon all, just a quick question regarding the front wiper arms. Are they splined to fit onto the splines on the linkage, or does the linkage spline cut into the soft alloy to form its own spline. Thank you.

    Freelander 1 New clutch

    I bit the bullet this week and had a new clutch and flywheel fitted. The clutch had been slipping for a while, but it got steadily worse over the past few weeks. I also had a new water pump and thermostat fitted while it was in the workshop. All good so far, any nonsense I'll let you know

    When I turn the ignition on, the rear tailgate opens, could there be damp in the door lock caused by all this crap weather, or an ignition switch fault? Any advice welcome, thanks.
