That is a casting number, and not an engine number. You could try a little acid on where the engine number should be and see if anything shows up. Any pics of your pump and the incorrect pumps?

re-connect??? so it was once connected then disconnected by the PO??? 2001 modell might not have the "hardware" for that, are you sure you have what to "re-connect"? if the TB has the diff-lock spigot and working with a a spanner you are the only...

As long as you didnt cut the cdl input wire to the slabs like some smart guys say you should nothing bad can happen cos the TC will be inghibited to not work against the locked diff with the early ECU.. as about i have no other comment though...

Hi everyone, I bought a Freelander 2 2.2 TD4 with a blown engine – swapped the engine and it’s running great now. But there’s a horrible noise when turning the steering wheel, both when idle and while driving. I thought it was the power steering...

After the suggestions, a bit of googling suggests to me its a facelift/phase 2 R5 turbo. NICE!

i just used bits that cost about a tenner lol,, a few nuts a flexible drive and a few connections, found it on youtube i think

I read on here many years go that TD5s start on 4 cylinders rather than 5, and then the ECU lets no. 5 injector start releasing fuel. Also, no. 5 cylinder doesn't have a glowplug, which might have something to do with this design feature. So I...

Having recently bought a bog standard and unmodified low mileage ‘01 TD5 id like to re-connect the diff lock, so do I go electrically operated or manual, your thoughts please.

Might be a good idea to take apart and clean up all the other earths, so the tiny earth wire isn't the path of least resistance! The best thing to happen to my earth connecctions was when I treated myself to a battery powered angle grinder...

I can help in Bradford area

Hi there, new here, looking for some help with changing the CCF file on my Disco 4. It's a case of changing the audio to the premium sound setting for the surround sound. Before I go down the road of buying a laptop/software to do this myself, I...

Looking for assistance. I have bought a discovery 4 2016 chassis, expecting the car to have the same engine within. I am now 8 different water pumps in from all years from 2012 to 2016 and none fit. Have taken it to various ‘specialist’s’...

My clutch pedal started feeling spongy yesterday, and the bite point got nearer to the bottom of the pedal travel. Hmm. Not another gearbox out job I hope. On unscrewing the cap the problem became apparent: Not much fluid. I topped it up and...

Thank you Miktdish, Turns out I made an error in my haste this morning. The wire that is fried is actually the earth wire. Now, I thought about it for a while and wondered why the rest of my auxiliary bits didn't fry but my stereo did, and I...

That's exactly why it's recommended to fit genuine only when it comes to a TD5 tensioner.

Not based on any fact, but my guess would be with grooves slanted towards rear of car, then the inner end hits the pad first & at slightly slower rotational speed. Maybe less pad impact, therefore less noise & pad wear ?? Only real way to tell...

If you think the car is dangerous, why haven't you had it fixed? The car is even telling you there's a problem. All you have to do is plug in a code reader and the car will tell you what the problem is. Then you can fix it. Its a pretty...

We had something similar to that bearing wear once, on our old Series Forward Control. The rollers had 'peeled' themselves. I think they'd been case hardened to provide a more durable wearing surface, but over the life of the bearing, the fact...

Just as an update on this unfortunately the a frame balljoint being replaced still hasn't sorted the issue so at the moment it's been put on the back burner till I can figure out what else it could be

Ah, sorry can’t help you there. Those I don’t have.

Well the 10th digit of my vin is also an A but I don't have the CWK number plate.... maybe it was changed... Think I'll buy a heritage certificate and see what that shows up.

Good luck! I'm almost done doing all that on mine. Good thing, once it is done, it is good for another 10-15 years! Also worth checking the cam shaft, the original ones wear out after 70k km or so, and so slowly that you don't necessarily realize it.

3.9v8 classic, does the fuel line from the fuel pump go to the fuel pressure valve,or to the other side of the fuel rail? thanks.

Auction ends tomorrow!! Still time to buy this beauty 😍

Have you got one of these https://www.lrukforums.com/threads/cwk-47y-pre-production-110-1982.287858/

Just to add some subject to this thread, I read last night that there are two 1982 Y Reg One Tens known to exist. They are both pre production and they are both in the Dunsfold collection. Still interesting to know exactly when One Ten...

Thank you, Hef; I'll check it out. I need to order some spares for it and want to make sure I get the right parts. Like the two belts off the crankshaft. They are squealing like pigs and so loud you would not believe it. People 300 yds up the...

Hi, thanks for that. My 109 has those as well, it's the dimension for little stick out things I'm looking for. These:

So ive got a slight inkling my Darkside intercooler may have split... Bit slow to come onto boost and in low revs/boost is coal rolling levels of smokey 😳 Its over due a service so that wont be helping either, but shouldnt be this bad! Going...

Assume its a TD5, ideally you need to plug into.some diagnostics and see why the TC fault is active. Could be many things
