Hi, In your case a basic scanner is useless, you need live data from the low presure pump. Same for the HP pump. Also having the values at idle is better than a random rpm. Also your basic reader say the mil is on for almost 32 000 km...

Hi, You have bubbles in the coolant, when the engine is hot but no when it’s cold ? You have done a CO2 test with a cold engine and you have nothing ? Oil cooler ? More certainly a cooled EGR but only on FL2 not on FL1.

Hi For turbo hoses, use your hands, if there is a split it is hidden, you will not see it. But you will have your hands full of oil ;)

Someone has exactly the same problem as you : https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/freelander-1-td4-eml-with-exclamation-mark-appear-5-seconds-when-full-throthle.397000/

Hi, For the temp sensor, open your eyes look next to yellow oil gauge, there is a connector just next to it. The engine works perfectly without it. For fuel sensor, on your diag device you should have live data for the fuel presure first the...

So if not a 4x4 anymore, you still have the inconvenients : - FL1 comes with a low gear ratio so you need more fuel to move it ... - The rear drive train need still to be serviced, diff need oil, it can leak ... and 2 rear drive shaft ... - The...

Anyone can become a professionel dealer, they sometimes fix wires under the seat with duck tape … In our case they certainly removed the propshaft themself to fix the car before selling it.

Hi, A professional should sell you a complete car ! No propshaft is already a problem, maybe there is others, once you buy, the seller will not answer any calls from you. Are you realy expecting a warranty for a 20 years old cars … ?

Hi, There is one bolt on the plastic engine cover, if not well tighten it can let oil leak. Regards

Hi, Personnaly I don’t buy that sort of cars, they goes from owner to owner. Each buyer think he can fix it, and finaly sell it with more issues. Good luck

Hi, You should change both of them, since the drive shaft is out. Regards.

You should check all of this, you don’t want to break the belt again, all the pulleys should be checked including the tensionner. Full kit, depending on the quality you could have some issues …

Hi, 2 options, only fix what has broken with the belt, with luck only some valves are bent. You do a full engine repair … For the belt you should look at the condition of the pulley and tensioner. Certainly not changed with the belt ? Regards

Hi, Jumping gear, your gearbox is in it’s way out … you should take that seriously … Regards.

Hi If the clutch has done 110 000 miles … better to replace it with the slave cylinder. For the bleeding, get someone experienced with you to do the job. So you know the bleeding was done correctly, and if it’s no better you are good for a...

Hi, 4 tires change on the FL1 only if it is a 4 by 4. 2 wheel drive freelander, you still have a rear diff that need oil, 2 drive shafts that have boot gaiters that can leak grease. And you still pay for the rear geometry, and pay more for the...

Hi You can get a door for less then £200, a wing for around £100, but you will not get the good color. You can’t have get better prices … For the paint job you should ask for a price, you can end up paying about £300 or more for a wing …

I should say, It’s not your problem, you paid for new tires and a geometry, renewed brakes, something went wrong … they give you a waranty. It not normal in 6 months and 14 000 miles to have this issues ! Get back to the garage … they must fix...

Hi, On the freelander 1 you need to change all the 4 tires at the same times. If the propshaft was removed, you still have a differential and 2 drives shafts that you need to service … For the front tires, are they rightly inflated ? A picture...

Hi, Fuel filter ? In the fuel tank with the pump ? Enough words to scare anyone.

Hi, In 2025, most breakers sells parts online. Use your favourite search engine, like google ... For a driver door, you will need to change the trim and the key barrel ... You will certainly need a paint job, even if you find the part with the...

Hi, When they gives you the price for replacing the gearbox, you need to know the condition of the part ( new, used, re-manufactured, refurbished ... ) ? The warranty time ? 6 months ? 1 year ? 2 years ? Do you already have a garage or someone...

Hi, You should look how much time waranty they gives you for the job. Unless you find a gearbox specialist who can check the gearbox, do some repairs or renew solenoids, you are stuck. For the oil change, it's complicated to do the change...

Hi, Don't put cheap vcu bearings, they do the job, but they are little noisy after some years. Regards

Hi Does the gearbox oil has been changed ? Does the gearbox codes has been read ? According to the price for the gearbox change, it’s most certaintly a refubished one, or a exchange one.

Hi, First what was the issue ? automatic gearbox can be repaired ... For the garage, without knowing if It is a new gearbox or a refubished one … but it’s a gearbox change price after all. If you get a second hand one, depending from where It...

Hi, You can use an AGM battery ( can be fully discharged without any issue ) which cost less than lithium one. I see too many issues, you want to put a second battery in the boot, also using to start the car and for using the radio. The...

What can cause a petrol to cut off when hot ? Ignition coils ? crank sensor ? Spark plugs ?

I bought the icarsoft, then sent it back after realising it does NOT connect with all the ECU’s in an F1. I then bought a PScan - which does! The OP asked for thoughts on the best diagnostic tool for an F1. In my opinion, and that of a lot...

I have ICarsoft LR v1.0 for FL1 TD4. You have a website, and detailed features. For around 100 euros. You have ABS, and airbag diagnostic features … and live data for fuel pumps … Regards.
