And presumably you've checked therecare no splits in the turbo hoses? Cheers Blippie

Ideally you want to do the tippex test on a roadtest, not on grass, as the wheel spin prevents the wind up that should cause the VCU to slip. ...but driving around anywhere is adequate and the fact the marks have moved is reassuring. Cheers Blippie

Could it be tyre wear? Try swapping the tyres from front to back and do a test drive. Does the sound move with it?

WANTED: A new keyboard, due spitting tea over my last one after Reading this post. Re: dog guards. If you buy one second hand from eBay make sure it comes with all fixings. If you buy a new one, Google for Travall who are the company who make the guards for Land Rover and sell directly at...

What engine have you got? This affects whether you can put fogs in the bumper. Cheers Blippie

The TD4 is a BMW engine, and our Freelander TD4 has done 100,000m from new and has failed us once after the fuel pump failed due to fuel contamination. It's the most reliable car we have ever had, occasionally gets 40mph. It's suprisingly competent offroad, and we've taken our l-series 95% of...

Hi there admin and mods. I was just browsing the Freelander and Engines > Freelander sections and came to the conclusion that the Engines > Freelander section isn't really very high profile and mostly contains posts that not engine related. Most Freelander engine posts are in the main...

to be fair, you have posted this in the "engines" section... Cheers Blippie

Yes, you can pick them up easily ( not as easy as picking up the soft backs though ) and it is a straight swap. Cheers Blippie

Yes, loads. Try searching for "cubby" or "water ingress" or "water in boot" and you will find all the answers you need. Cheers Blippie

I'd be willing to try it ... on your car. Cheers Blippie

I'm involved with the Camel Trophy Owners Club and we are building a spectacular display involving a Freelander for the Land Rover shows in the UK this year and Europe next year. We nearly have all the bits we need for our project... We need your old seized VCU! as the car we have is missing...

Cool. Cheers Blippie

people, like me, who are too lazy to click on links cab see the picture above... With regard to the expectation that 18 inch wheels should make a taller car, rennet that the size of the wheel rim does not necessarily affect the height, as the tyres are often of a lower profile. Cheers Blippie

How are you fixing it on? Cable tires or wire would be the simplistcway and you can simply loop them through the gaps in the grille and then tie them off from the front. Cheers Blippie

We have a TD4 just coming up to 100000 miles. We've had it from new and it is the most reliable car we have ever had. Cheers Blippie

This question has been asked loads of times on the Freelander section... I'd head there and have a browse. Cheers Blippie

Alternatively if it is not a fuse, the windscreen wiper linkage may be broken. This part is £70 from a dealer and takes about twenty mins to swap. Cheers Blippie

If you are sliding when driving in the snow then you are going too fast, even five mph is too fast on an icy road. To pull away you apply a tiny bit of throttle and gently ease up clutch, and the drive along with no input from throttle, just allow the engine to pull you. If you can't pull away...
