I don't like clutch hydraulics, if the pedal behaving oddly once, it can happen again any time soon. If you know how to shift gears with no clutch pedal, it's ok. But it's better to get it checked by a professional.

Hi, You can use a hammer, to gently persuade the Drum to get out. Mechanics use to tap the Drums on the side to get them out, don't know if it's good ... but it works. Regards.

Hi, Brake switch is known for having issues … Regards

Hi, Do you have the picture of that plug ? The plug can be disassembled, but since it’s old plastic it will break, you so a need a new connector, is a connector used for injectors, 2way JPT(Junior Power Timer) connector …

Thinking about this, the automatic timing chain tensioner will probably have ratcheted to.tighten the chain and so lifting the cog now will be impossible. Not sure if you can release the tensioner without timing cover off. Timing cover off...

There is a warning on the workshop manual, that you should never remove the tool ( that keep the timing chain gear in place ) before installing the pump. Once the gear is not maintained it will fall, there is no way to put it back in place. I...

Thought I should give an update! Success! On a very rainy cold weekend in October 2023, myself and old man took to the underneath of my Freelander.... Surprisingly, nothing really went too wrong? Seized ball joint on the lower wish bone... cut...

Hi You have changed the modul with a preowned or new one ? If it’s a preowned one how do know is good 🧐 Regards.

Hi For P1110 look next to the oil gauge, there should the air temp sensor unpluged, try to find the wire, somewhere … With the P0190 code, the car start perfecty ? With the engine cold and a stable idle ? If the car start, the fuel rail sensor...

Hi, The problem with drive shaft is getting decent ones, sure you can buy one for £100, you put it, it will do the job. But in less than 2 years you probably need to change it again … You need to put GKN driveshafts if you want something that...

If that clip was undone certainly the pump was changed ? ( certainly the poblem we are looking for ), it was also rotated for and odd reason.

That's the ground connection to the fuel filter. The male spade does rust off but it won't affect it working. It purely grounds the metal of the filter casing. Also, the clip holding the fuel pipe onto the pump appears to have come unclipped and...

They have been already replaced, but they put poor quality hoses, you should replace them better quality ones. Just behind the injectors there is a filter that is never replaced LLJ500010

Hi, Don’t forget to purge the water separator. For the connector is goes there : You need to slide the metal clip between the fuel filter houssing and the fuel filter. I only see half of the metal clip, certainly broken look for that part...

These cars are not well serviced, the propshaft should be checked, universal joint can have play, VCU bearing can have the rubber part split. The front diff support can have the rubber part split … Front Whishbones rust, there is one small hole...

Smoke is not normal … Check the boost pipes, the one that you put in picture, sometimes it is split, check the full surface of the boost pipes with your hands to spot any hole or split. Boost can spot the EML light.

Hi, Steel wheels are car specific, only allow wheels can be used with plastic adaptators …

First with the engine cold, does it start on the button with stable rpm at idle ?

If you buy from a professional dealer you can go back. If not you can’t do anything, the car has 20 years … certainly not well serviced at all. Boost pipes can split a picture is beater, Also normaly when you buy the car, the car should pass...

For how long do you have the car ? The MIL was certainly on for a long time. I don’t think the value is the wrong. Do you have a picture of your engine sometimes it can help to spot some issues.

The MIL for 32 000 km ? A wrong information ?
