I take it out from above… loosen, let it drip, then lift out.

Thought I’d add to the ‘range’… 😉

Not very often, fortunately, I get "one of those jobs" ! Offered to replace a strut top mount for a mate. Both strut to hub bolts and nuts seized solid, like they had become one piece of metal. My 350 + ft lb impact driver wouldn't touch it. Nut...

Yes, the pump and the rest of the system is designed for CHF, not ATF. ATF could do permanent damage to the pump, and damage seals and hoses. Mannol 8990 is a good price, and is to the correct specification for the Freelander 2.

Looking at the pic the manufacturer hasn't put chf202 on the product where it lists the spec. Sellers of said product say it's for use where chf202 is required. They also use list many more spec's that the manufacturer doesn't. That always makes...

@landowner You ain't a filfy tratterer no more since yer sold yer heap and bought the worlds bestest 4x4. Gorra do fings properly now. No topping up yer engine oil wiv old creosote.

Let me know when you are ready - I can get my old F1 code and serial number

But I can’t forget it as I see it in the forum everyday. Therefore, I have to ignore it somehow. 😵‍💫

I’d be flushing it PDQ, several times, with the correct PS fluid, and keeping my fingers crossed. Also change the reservoir bottle when you do it - it has a small filter inside. … I s’pose it ‘could’ be just very old green fluid that has turned...

Thanks Arctic and Nodge, I can now get the correct service kit, cheers
