Changed the thermostat today, and the inlet manifold gasket. Hope this sorts my leak issues.. The old gasket leaked very badly and the old thermostat did not open properly, resulting in me driving with the heat on full blast to prevent it from overheating. Very handy with 4 broken windows regulators and a non working AC. (which was pressure testet and regassed lasted only 24 hours before packing up again..)
I hope I no longer need to drive with the OBD2 wifi always connected and a keen eye on the phone..
On a side note, found the really annoying exhaust rattle, heat shield seem to have rusted to pieces..

Makes me laugh the type of gadgets people with petrol freelanders fit to their expansion tanks...etc....you are just waiting for the inevitable..I installed a pressure gauge on the expansion tank, but I WORK UP TO BE FUNCTIONAL

In last few days I've changed a rear lens (old one cracked) and treated the old girl to a new 'Freelander' badge on the rear door and today I should be receiving my roof rails (3door) purchased for £115 delivered, cheapest I've seen so far.

Took the front brakes off, cleaned them and put some more copper grease on to try and stop a squeal that occurs at low speed coming to a stop.

Well, fitted a fire extinguisher. Fitted the induction kit and silicone and stainless pipework to the larger intercooler - again !
Must have damaged the radiator in the process of test fitting it last week, hence the thread about damaging the engine with radweld. Anyway, removed the water pump and it was clogged up with radweld.Replaced it with another , but back washed the whole system first to make sure there were no traces of radweld left. It seems luckily that it went no further than the water pump as it was clogged that badly it couldn't pump water around the system.
Anyway, while replacing the rad I decided to remove the redundant air con...........
Anyway, it now runs like a dream . Just needs the silicone cleaning up, it was all new, but greasy hands make greasy hoses.
