    Freelander 1 TD4 Vacuum tubes, which length original and DM

    Ok here is the ID of LR005985 at I'd 3.5mm, OD 7.5mm, length is left 91cm and I think I took off about 20cm for the EGR which as it seems was wrong, but thought I found it. Will update if I get hold of the other ones.

    Freelander 1 TD4 Vacuum tubes, which length original and DM

    Morning All, I was wondering which diameter was on those tubes originally? I know it was 3.2 and 3.5 mm ID but no idea which one was which one? Anyone some help on it? The one to the little filter, I've got original from LR so can check, but especially the one going from the reservoir to the...

    Freelander 1 Winter Tyres - 215/65/16 No Propshaft at the moment, Only Two?

    Hi All, Just changed for the winter tyres. At the moment there are Continental ContiWinterContact TS850P SUV 215/65 R16 98H FR on. The front have only 4mm while the rear are like new, not having prop shaft on for a while. As I would like to put the prop shaft on sooner or later I was wondering...

    Freelander 1 Td4 Auto hard gear change 3 to 4 - Nearly SOLVED

    You're welcome. the 2/4 no, oil cooler seemed to have improved, but since the cooler leaks it I can't remember to have heard. Had no fault codes except the usual MAF ones for wires taken off. Could scan the invoice to show you what I mean or they meant or maybe someone else has similar experience?

    Freelander 1 Td4 Auto hard gear change 3 to 4 - Nearly SOLVED

    Morning Andy, When I got my gearbox refurbed a part of the warranty was to get the radiator changed as they found that autoboxes were having problems if cooler problems. Some month my oil cooler was first leaking so got it changed. I had trouble also with 2nd to 3rd and/or 3rd to 4th. Three...

    Freelander 1 Air/Con Fluid through Air vents

    Thanks @Nodge68 last time I saw it when changing the bushes it dropped, so should be fine.

    Freelander 1 Air/Con Fluid through Air vents

    Thanks. Do you mean a piece like that , that I know what to look for? Just wondering when the a/c was renewed the a/c should have been flushed for warranty purposes if I remember it correctly. Should that be clean then or is that separated?

    Freelander 1 Air/Con Fluid through Air vents

    Good Evening All, was just driving home from a walk with the dog, had a/c and the fan on 3 or 4 when it did an odd noise cling and it feels like fluid/water would come in through the air vents. I turned it down to one and it disappeared. First I thought it was the drinking cup which I had...

    Freelander 1 Locking Wheel nut key

    It's not type B (79) as attached. https://www.island-4x4.co.uk/advanced_search_result.php?keywords=key%20lock&sort=3a&page=2 Maybe call LR and just order one, they can tell you the right one if not changed by someone else to other. Cost about 10-15£.

    Freelander 1 TD4 Auto Gear One to Two or Two to Three Loud Clonking Noise

    The gearbox oil cooler was changed some weeks ago, but had the loud clonking still after from time to time. Felt more like when pushing the accelerator pedal down harder that it does it rather then when starting off smoother. The radiator had a leak and was fixed and two clamps, but still after...

    Freelander 1 Oil Leak

    Not really schoolboy, the garage where I had the car once took it off and created as well:-)

    Freelander 1 Rear Link - The long one

    Hello All, I was wondering what would the easiest way be to get rear link / trailing arm changed? Can I just drive the car up the Hippo ramps or would I need to take the wheels off to change it/ jack it up? The garage usually says rubbers would be good, but after alm. 212T miles and wobbly from...

    Freelander 1 Vent Assembly Center Console

    Can I ask how you got them out as the clips show outward direction? I tried with a tiny screwdriver, but still to big I guess. Thought to use a metal which came with the stereo to slip it out, but like usually when needed can't find it. The plastic for the door boards didn't work either so far.

    Freelander 1 [SOLVED] Electrical problems, possible CCU failure

    If it's for the tailgate, get a cardboard, cut it to the size and stick it there with tape and some foil over it to protect from rain. Had done that on mine when the window smashed down.

    Freelander 1 TD4 Auto Coolant Loss

    Ok, just thought and opened it till the fluid was down to what you said and kept it running for an hour no loss of fluid so far. Wondering if they really didn't bleed it or would I need to drive it?

    Freelander 1 TD4 Auto Coolant Loss

    Thanks @Nodge68 . Am I right in thinking it's this (first pic) and the other two are for the air con? For the air con one they killed the head last time changing the compressor. Any way I get one on again?

    Freelander 1 TD4 Auto Coolant Loss

    Good question, no idea. Would need to ask but doubt if getting an answer if not. Could I do that myself, where would the outlet be? It felt like it bubbled out on the left upper corner of the radiator, but couldn't find anything and it got dark.

    Freelander 1 TD4 Auto Coolant Loss

    Hello All, Just a quick question. Last week just before a longer trip the coolant reservoir was empty so used my wife's tiny one. About two/three weeks ago I had the auto box oil cooler changed as leaking. I thought to refill and run the engine to see if I can spot a leak, but so far nothing...
