Mine squeaks all the time too, I kinda think of it as part of the charm of owning a defender :)

Power (the ability to do work) come from a (rich) mixture of air and fuel. I would imagine that in 3rd pulling 3500 rpm you would be in the power band and using more fuel than when you are in 4th or top with a less revs ?? The Turbo makes a...

Ebc pads yellow And the M tec discs They aren’t exactly quite when you brake 🤨

Its cold.

Thats exactly what I need. Thanks Mike.

You deffo need new bolts in there ... You need: 4 off M16 x100mm bolts (10.9) - BX116201L 4 off M16 Nyloc nuts 8 off M16 Washers 2 off M20 Washers - for the back end, you can use the originals. 2 off M20 Nyloc nuts...

Morning All. :D Not raining (yet). Bins out, paper fetched. :) Up to the old gals later to take trickery readings. Some welding beckons. Have a good day. :D

I have EBC discs on a mini and EBC specify to do it this way...so I did it the same with these cheap ones on the freelander. I should have paid the extra £30 for the EBCs so the orientation would be irrefutable!

There are, it's called a Hilux or an Audi, it's not a utility vehicle called a Landrover ... 👍

first time I have posted the image

Slackening the front axle radius arm nuts last night on Izzy revealed the LH one was...showing less than optimum on the thread: A die nut might recover that. But its asking a lot. And cost of a die nut is likely to be more than a second hand...

Confused !! There were so many opinions out there and no absolute answer so I asked the manufacturer. Key thing is if the vents in-between the discs are angled. These are not but their orientation matters to pull air in. The slotted grooves...

I can say the compressor on mine doesn't run constantly or on Elliotts. I'm not sure if it's designed that way as to not freeze one side of the system 🤔

I was under the impression the grooves were designed to vent stuff out, not draw it in! I don't know why they have holes.

That'd be like men wanting to be women.

Nope, and no EGR. Checked pick up pipe last night and that's clear, I also looked inside that tank and it's immaculate inside too. What I did find however is that when I removed the fuel filter I got a ton of diesel chucked out at me which isn't...

Does it have an airflow sensor?

I appreciate this is an old post, but I know the answer and have posted how to turn on this feature, assuming the loom has it. It’ll be the tow electric loom. Assuming it’s a 13 pin (maybe 7pin?) and aftermarket installation or upgrade. I...

Are yours not comfy then? Don't fix what ain't broken... ;)

There are pics of my install here https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/joying-android-head-unit-to-fl1-steering-wheel-controls.397681/

Don't mean to offend but if you don't know the difference between a brake pipe and a cable maybe best to get someone else to do the job of changing it, just saying.

Seen kev today. Bin wukkin from home making somefink. Patio curtains open so eye could see me squirrels visiting. Kev was lerkin about 5pm. Ran away when e seen me but came back and braved it ferra nut.

Tratter wanting to be a freelander.

bugger ok thanks

Yes, but another self-inflicted wound I'm afraid. I got to learn to keep my fingers out there like it said on the warning sign! Now whereabouts, I wonder, is the engine number on this little V8 lump?

Cheers, I remembered that!

However you adjust the pump angle, the final movement of adjustment must be toward the engine.
