I considered posting this on LZ international rescue, but I thought that might provoke a little too much urgency. My FL1 facelift has a little bit of a problem (I am fairly sure it's down to either excessive clutch wear, or the clutch cable needing adjustment) When pulling away the car has...

Hi all, I just wanted to pass my thanks to everyone, especially MrIFan. It was really useful and saved my from having to rally force my car up there. All of the race organizers were extremely grateful! I look forward to next year, when we need to do it all again! Q

Thanks a Bunch guys! MrIFan I've PM'd You :)

OK so. Currently there is a national fell race under way in the Peak District, the race is 42 miles run at night in dark and cold of the peak. This involves a radio network being spread over the national park, with it's re-broadcast centre on top of Win Hill. Every year we gain...

The relay isn't normally considered dead if it's ticking. It's often just an electromagnet circuit that operates a mechanical switch internally so the ticking could just be that. Brack is right though, the switch is quite fiddly (as you likely found out) and LR are not known for their high...

Thanks for the great response! Sorry I have been a little slower than the rest of the community... I'm also glad that i'm not the only one! Attercliffe road happens to be quite close to my house (when I get to uni) so I am quite sure I'll end up going for a little adventure down to coil...

After a recent trip where I loaded my Freelander all the way to the brim with heavy dive gear, I have decided some beefier springs/suspension will be required. I expect that a payload capacity of around 750kg-1000kg will be required as the normal <500kg was simply not sufficient... The car...

I get to 520-ish maximum (no modifications), but always keen to improve! I tend to do an average of 25-30k miles a year so every little helps :) How do you get 600, sijwhite?

I read some great threads on here about fitting it to FL1s doesn't sound too bad. But it can't have gotten any harder to do. If you are circuit savvy shouldn't be a problem! I priced it up for my FL1 at 400 for parts (all original switches etc), but was offered an after market fully fitted...

Keen to see that memo, would make for a very entertaining read! :5brofl:

These are the most utterly ridiculous, but fantastic invention EVER! I must have some! But I totally agree, Photos once fitted, please! :nopics:

Basically what I did :) Tested the door seal with a pressure washer... Only leaked in one place :) Moved the tail door closer to the aperture by adjusting the hinge and striking plate, and chucked a little silicone grease on the offending section (both sides for good measure). Seemed...

Thanks for your input guys... I guess I'll hold off filling in the holes and fitting a replacement carpet until I have fixed the leaky whatever is leaking :mad: Better start hunting for the watering hole now...

I found a set of carpets on Fleebay for a pre-facelift 5dr model any one got any idea if they will fit my 2005 5dr model?

No Problem! I'm not sure about the CD changer harness and how it's connected... best to pull it out and have a look honestly! When you do have a look, make some notes about the set-up like manufacturers of each item most items will have a model number and serial number. (Land Rover use many...

wish I could say I had, then these exams would be a breeze and I wouldn't be procrastinating on here :rolleyes:

It's at the Uni of Sheffield. By the looks of your profile pic you are also from round there?

Normally the harnesses won't match up, but more often than not there will be an appropriate adaptor somewhere like this: https://www.connects2.co.uk/ When I fitted my clarion unit I got a two harness adaptors (one for the head unit, and one for the remote) You might also need to get a mounting...

Thanks for the heads up mate :)

Hi guys, Just a short do, to introduce myself. My name is Quentin. I am an aerospace engineering student and I live part time in Luxembourg, Sheffield and London. Got my Freelander Freestyle TD4 Manual about 6 months ago and so far she's been a joy. Only had one severe mechanical...
