    Freelander 2 (LR2) How often are you changing gear/diff oils?

    JD - the oil it needs is 3309 ATF which apparently allows the box to select one gear and slip another so I think the cleaner it is, the better. I'm doing another fluid change (10 litres) because after the first flush, I'm still not happy at the colour of it, it's still dirty. STV - it's done...

    Freelander 2 (LR2) How often are you changing gear/diff oils?

    I'm not sure what you mean. How can draining some out and refilling cause a problem? If I don't take some out, I won't get more in.

    Freelander 2 (LR2) How often are you changing gear/diff oils?

    We have a 'new to us' 2010 FL2 so I'm trying to get the servicing up to date. I don't think the oils have ever been changed. This is the Haldex oil I got out of it. It's dirty but at least light gets through it. This is the auto gearbox oil. Even with light behind it, it's so dark, no...

    I have but they are a bit rubbish looking. The front ones aren't inflating but that's probably a fault elsewhere.

    Sorry, I thought the forum would notify me when people responded. Sevy, The cubby box is available. Does it come out as one complete part or just a fridge part? Johnlad, rear prop middle joint is shot I'm afraid. Andy, The compressor has been working and lifting the car. Make is AMK.

    Disco 2 Anyone scrapping a D2 wirth ACE?

    Thanks for the info, will give them a call. We did speak about this before on the forum when I was trying to decide whether it was worth retrofitting my non-ACE with ACE. I've been looking for the sensors ever since. So, my non-ACE vehicle may or may not have the required connection in the...

    LT77 Synchro Hub Question

    I also found an annomaly when I rebuilt my R380. Pretty sure it was to do with 4th gear. Something was opposite from the manual. I seem to remember that I rebuilt as per manual, since there was deep groove being worn on the gear. I've had no problems since, but then, there were no problems...

    Disco 2 Anyone scrapping a D2 wirth ACE?

    I am looking for two ACE sensors, one behind the front interior light, the other is under the driver's footwell accessible from under the car. For this one, I also need the wiring that connects it to the main body loom. I'm hoping that will connect somewhere in the cabin by the driver's side...

    Disco 2 Body mount bolts

    The rear bolts can be accessed from under the carpet under the front seats. They are all accessible from inside the cabin or front wheel arches and front bumper, if you ever need to lift the body. You may need to cut a neat slot in the carpet for access. I ripped my carpet but I was scrapping...

    engine oil filters

    That's OK, I've watched it twice now. I follow that guy on You Tube, he's quite knowledgeable on Land Rovers.

    Disco 2 Body mount bolts

    Why do you need to lift the body? To remove broken bolts in the middle? You should be able to access all of those ones from inside the cabin, if I understand you correctly.

    2000Disco TD5 running rough, now won’t start at all

    All your injectors are black or blue aren't they? Maybe you could also change the seals and O rings on the other 3 injectors too. If your oil level has risen, I doubt it's because of removing injectors. 6mm is quite a lot spread out over the whole sump. I suspect that you're getting fuel in the...

    engine oil filters

    Well, my point in posting the video was that we mostly perceive Mahle as being better, perhaps due to it's higher cost, but the fuel filter in the video was not a lot better than the Britpart. My experience with the leaking Bearmach oil filter taught me that, despite my perception that Bearmach...

    engine oil filters

    I rebuilt my engine and put on a new Bearmach filter. I was gutted to find I had an oil leak which made a mess of my nice, new engine, although I couldn't see where it was coming from. Months later I tackled the problem and found that the Bearmach had leaked from the crimp at the top, from new...

    TD5 Discovery2. Hole in rocker cover!

    I know what you mean and I would normally agree but if you look at his photo, the chain is still laying over the cam sprocket. There's no way it would be there if it had snapped. He's turned it over a few times too. Unless the tensioner did somehow lose tension and the chain rose up off the...
