That is so scary - it's made the air filter jump out on to the scuttle!

Thats given me an idea on how to trace coolant leaks.......you could add the contents of a night stick, the type used in fishing into your expansion bottle, take it for a run and see where its glowing

Isn't that the basic theory behind this: HVAC Home Auto Engine Fluid Leak Detector 12 LED UV Black Light 4 5 Volt | eBay

Saw it on wheeler dealers once!

The one I saw the other day was a Masserati and he was checking the air con rad and had put some flourescent dye in first I've not seen him check the cooling rad but could have missed a program.

It could well have been that one I'm thinking of :S

Just finished changing clutch on my dad's 52plate td4 . Quite involved but not as scary as I thought it would be.
Tomorrow changing oil on my own td4.
It's all go.......

I always thought the LR oats coolant showed up in UV to help find leaks.

Finally got around to putting on the light pods. Brought the kit couple of years ago but then crashed the landy a bit so forgot all about them till recently. I have to say the hardest part was convincing myself to cut holes in the bumper and not all the wiring that was nothing really. But there was no plug for the dimmer switch behind the dash

. So going to have to find a blank so I can remove it, it was there when I brought it. Unless I can retro fit it.

metata · Apr 21, 2014

front bumper removed to measure for winch fitting, surprised how good the condition of the metal work is for a 14 year old freelander.
id put a pic on if i could work it out

slimboy · Apr 21, 2014

Replaced central door lock on drivers door, NEVER AGAIN job looks easy which in fairness it is, but deffo need 3 pairs of hands

NeilTD4 · Apr 21, 2014

Finally got round to fixing the n/s/r electric window by fitting a good used regulator.
