Car is working a lot better now :) will have a look at the MAF later on the year as I feel it's not great at low revs and fuel consumption is high. Priority is to work on this rattle on left front corner when turning right. Rattles as if an empty can was stuck in that corner. No noise when...

Thanks for that. I feel silly now that I replaced the solenoid and didn't make the connexion between these pipes I connected to it with those I found when looking at the engine from the top.... Will replace that pipe and also the air vent filter as it seems to be super cheap. Hopefully will...

I don't manage to find the part number for this pipe .. anybody ? What does it actually link ?

actually after doing some research on the net this pipe seems to be a vacuum pipe and the other line next to it is the air vent to solenoid. ( white plastic filter ).

All right. I replaced the turbo boost solenoid and took it for a test drive. problem remains the same :( I then noticed something strange. I found this hose going from the pump on the right side of the engine to the MAF. It is ruptured. Might be the cause of the problem. \does anyone...

I now have an ETA for Wednesday :mad: an post told me it would take 6 days average..... My question being " how come in 2012 the postal service takes 6 days to deliver 350 km away ? " the answer i was given : " It's christmas " It's one of these things you have to accept in Ireland ...

Hopefully will receive the solenoid tomorrow from trillick. So much for the next day delivery, I ordered it on sunday.....

the car was only reving to 3000 rpm even in neutral ( auto box ). Unplugged the MAF and could rev up to 4000 and even a bit over - car felt better but when I took it on a test drive it had the same problem of suddendly hitting a wall and blocking itslef at around 2500-2750 rpm foot down and not...

Thanks guys. I still haven't found the solution for this one but I had to put it on the back boiler due to power issues. I read the different threads on the forum and I'm up for the solenoid replacement tomorrow

I finally took the whole carrier out and got the bolt from underneath. It's a painfull job. Did that this afternoon

Thanks Hippo. I went into the bother of replacing the battery this morning. The old one was dying. Never seen such a bad design :mad: the bolt of the plastic clip holder wasn't going out. Ended up taking the whole battery carrier out !!! Anyway this is sorted. I will carry on working on it...

The rubbing noise is coming from under the bonnet. I noticed that the aircon belt isn't working at all .... even with aircon on. still don't understand why it does it when I turn left though .... would that put tension on that belt ? Is there not an easier way to access the driver's side...

Hello everyone, I'm willing to have opinions on different issues I have on my new freelander TD4 GS auto 03. I read carefully the thread on lack of power and will do the MAF test as I have the same issue. The car won't pass 3000 rpm even in neutral. No issues during the acceleration, it just...
