What have you done to your Freelander today

Took all the timing and cam sprockets off again today as my earlier "repair" to the oil pump didn't stop the leak
on further investigation I found the real culprit and sorted it
one camshaft oil seal had committed hari-kiri and split in half, allowing 5 litres of oil to pass in a single journey
all is now well in my Freelandering world :amen:

Fixed my wipers. The linkages kept popping off and although new kits aren't too bad figured I'd risk £3 on these: x2 Chrome LAND ROVER FREELANDER WINDSCREEN WIPER MOTOR LINKAGE LINK REPAIR CLIP | eBay
Total bastard to fit but do so far appear to be doing the job. Also changed the blades, repainted the scuttle and had new scuttle pins whilst at it.

Took it to Manchester, well Rochdale, yesterday to get a van...300.2 miles, averaged 30.7mpg going there was a funny trip, lots of slowing down, pretty bad weather in early rush hour traffic, but coming back was a fairly straight run at 65-70 most of the way.
I did have a pallet of steel in the back for the full trip too, but wasn't that heavy

It's annoying when you expect it to be more than it is!! I did 41 mpg one week then 37 the next and it's disheartening!

To be honest it was probably the drive there that killed it, obviously the lift, tyres etc don't help

Changed the rear diff forward mount. It was totally knackered.
Checked the other 2 and they are both fine. Should now stop the thump every time I change gear.
