    Battery straw poll

    Hi All I had a total battery failure on Sunday - everything fine, then total inability to power dashboard lights or starter (could hear the relay and the solenoid clicking). No alternator light before or since. Have now replaced it, but there are a number of threads on batteries citing...

    TD4 Clutch

    Hi all Just a quick straw poll really. Getting quotes for replacement of my TD4 clutch, as the noise from the failing release bearing has gone to a new level! Which of the following would you get quotes from (or trust) to do the best VFM job? A. LR main dealer B. LR specialist C. Clutch...

    Facelift TD4 Clutch release bearing

    Hi All Next in the saga is the development of a whirring noise when depressing the clutch. No noise when stationary in neutral, clutch up, throughout rev range. No noise when driving, whatever gear. Noise appears exclusive to the clutch pedal being depressed, even partially. I'm assuming it's...

    Freelander 1 HELP NEEDED: Tailgate regulator/motor repair

    Hi everyone Been having fun trying to repair the regulator cables on my 2006 TD4 tailgate. Following the various threads on here, taking the thing off the car is a piece of cake, and the reattachment of the cables to the regulators and motor seemed to be going ok. However, when i put it back on...

    Freelander 1 Temperature in the back

    Am I alone in having passengers who whinge about how cold it is in the back seats? I've tried turning the heating up, all the different combinations of direction settings, and while the front seat passenger and I are close to collapsing from heat stroke, it's still apparently cold in the back...

    Freelander 1 Tailgate glass - summary of knowledge?

    Yes, it's this old chestnut again, and I've looked through all the previous threads, but was hoping to perhaps get a bit more clarity on what parts are in the system to ID what has gone wrong. So my window isn't dropping enough to clear the channel when I activate the tailgate handle (2006 TD4...

    Colour-coded rear bumpers

    Hi all Apologies for prolonged absence, and if this question has been answered elsewhere, but I have done a search and can't find owt. So, my much-beloved has gone and scraped the offside rear quarter of my facelift against a concrete post and gouged the colour-coded part of the bumper to the...

    Fuel consumption, aircon on v off

    Hi All I know there are a few threads on here concerning fuel consumption, but I only twigged recently that my 06 Td4 turns on my air-con whenever I point the flow at the screen, but doesn't have the decency to tell me or let me override it! So my starter for ten is has anyone compared their...

    Creaking Targa Panels, Hardback

    I've had my '06 Td4 Hardback Adventurer for a few months and I love it. But as the cold weather has come on, the "plastic" Targa panels creak and groan like it's going out of fashion, and is just a tad annoying. Is there a glass version out there that I can replace them with? Pardon my...

    TD4 fuel gauge and consumption

    As per previous threads, I can get up to about 450 miles from a full tank in my '06 Td4, but the consumption appears to be much worse if I only fill to the 3/4 mark. Clearly no electro-mechanical fuel gauge gives a linear read-out, but mine often won't budge off the "FULL" pin for the first 100...
