Hi All, I (the other half does! I just try and fix it where I can!) have a FL1 Td4, Manual Diesel. It's knocking?? The sound is in the front drivers side, it knocks when changing gears! When you try and give it more power? And struggling to go...

Out for a drive. Found the handbarake was set too good and was dragging for a bit. Stopped & re set the cable all good now.

We’ll welcome you in the Freelander section. Nice looking 2

Happy new car day :cool::cool: Looks very clean. :):)

Solution would be to replace it. Take the belt off and inspect, physically.

I am tempted to offer you money for it...!!! Sounds too good to be true!!!;);):):)

I don't have a Freelander but that looks like radiator hose and possibly intercooler hose beneath it.. Radiator hose would leak coolant, intercooler hose would be noisy and down on power.

Update I switched the n/s driveshaft out for another new one. Bad news is it wasn’t that causing the ‘wobble’. Good news is I now have a spare front n/s driveshaft I guess 🙄 I then switched the new n/s strut (complete) out for the old one...

We are glad you didn't steal it, alot get stolen over here. Hopefully you get it fixed and reply with the outcome.

Well done. What junction box are you talking about? Maybe post some pictures to help others in the future.

I wish I could be more certain, but I am certain that they didn`t bleed the brakes or top up fluid so I presume the brake line was not touched. They did have to gently strain this and that and I saw reasonable use of the polythene faced mallet...

Nanocom is ideal. Needs to be correct one for your model. P38 is not obd2 compliant so lot of diagnostics will translate the codes to nonsense. You are risking turning your vehicle into a 2.5T paperweight messing about with those settings...

Only bad points for me are....... Leather interior Six speed manual Card in slot and push button to start Stop Start thingy Space saver spare wheel And I'm not keen on sat nav thingy in middle of dash. I suppose I'll get used to it though, and it...

+1 pics or it dint appen Welcome to LandyZone

Sounds right. This can be done with nanocom etc at home or at a dealership? I tried security immobalizer re sync to te ecu with launch but does not seem to work.

I'm deeply hurt LOL ;) Owned two of them (admittedly old E34/E39) & neither have spoilt my 61 years conviction-free driving record.

there are wheel bearing kits available and they can indeed be changed. Basically you get what you pay for ; Britpart are cheap with relative life expectancy, Timken are great but reflected in price. There could be some reason your mechanic has...

Thanks. Can you remember what they unbolted to get the driveshaft out. The minimum and hopefully not the brake lines !!?? Thanks

I drove the vehicle for a number of years while it was leaking oil from its crankshaft seals. I had a mechanic strip down the engine and rebuild it with new engine parts. I'm now trying to start the engine but the immobiliser has cut fuel to the...

Nuvva one convertid. Freelandering is the way forward.

Hi all, I’m a newbie here just after a bit of advise. I have a 2010 Freelander 2. I have noticed smoke coming from engine area when car gets up to temp. I’m pretty sure it’s a leak coming from the area pictured. Any ideas? Many thanks

Sounds like it needs the engine immobilizer code from the ecu writing to the becm. if they dont match it will turn over but not start.

I did pal. Actually fitted new ones as I replaced both doors with new ones. The old doors were rotted out. I just wonder if the heater matrix was not of best quality and was not doing the heat exchanging effect very good. Checked every part of...

Mmmm! Lovely!!! Well done!! :) :) :)

Hello all, while trying to understand other faults which I have cleared, pscan showed this: - Teves Mk 25 1 error code 5E5C C1220 Unknown code There are no wheel speed sensor codes and the Bosch front pads, 600 miles back, the wear indicator...

Recon rear diff, new prop centre bearing , all new brakes, new rear wheel bearings, new front wishbones and drop links, 4 recent Toyo tyres, very decent underneath as well :)

My pscan arrived this week and I checked all systems to see the following faults: - B1001 Battery voltage too low B1004 Warning lamp failure (short to ground or open circuit) B1008 Front driver airbag, resistance too high I have have reset the...

Very smart. Here's a sticker for your tailgate ------ 😁

I love the simplicity and probable correctness of this answer.:) But not the solution. :(
