sounds like the one or both air springs have gone pourous. Put it in off road mode and spray the air springs with soapy water, you'll see bubbles if they're leaking

Yes, you need to enable it in the cofiguration files, if its not enabled then you wont see the "rear entertainment" button on the touch screen, if the button is there then there is another fault. No doubt your mate has done this, have a look in "display and/or modify vehicle configuration" on...

they only adjust themselves if you have adaptive headlamps. The adjustment screw is an allen key on the headlamp, you get to it through a hole in the bonnet slam panel

The third wire is a shield to prevent interference. If its popping and farting, change the sensor. I've replaced a few in my time for this fault.

P15XX codes only go up to P1589 so i don't know P15XX codes are to do with Vehicle Speed, Idle Control, and Auxiliary Inputs

I thought I'd do this cos I'm a nice chap! There's a few threads going around on here with concerns about lack of power and/or engine light on, non start but cranks over fine, stuff like that. This thread i've started covers the most common cause. i've stuck it here in the freelander section for...

yes it is what it needs, the towbar is controlled by the CJB (new name for body control unit, now called central junction box) and a module that is fitted behind the L/H C post, these have to be configured with ids to work. A bit like adding hardware to a computer, you need software for it to...

Sorry, you're right, my mistake. I knew what I was on about!!!:D

You say "plenty of pressure". Too much pressure is as bad as too little, you should have between 2 and 4 bar on the low side and 10 to 15 bar on the high side, pressure will vary with ambient temperature. firstly, since you know it has gas, is to make sure the compressor is running, to do...

If I was working on your car and it came up with an immobiliser fault but cranks, I'd just clear the fault codes, try to start and see what else comes up. Sometimes they flag immobiliser sync faults but everythings fine, low battery voltage can bring this fault up. To rule out the EWS, they...

get one from a breakers or summat, the engine is the same a BMW 320d, 530d, L322 range rover, BMW X5. (yes i know RR,530 and X5 have six cylinder engines, apart from that, they are the same) Should be able to get one from somewhere cheaply

I have seen this before but it was a long time ago, from memory its a confliction of data between the instrument pack and the BCU or something like that, sometimes the mileage will flash aswell if there is a difference between the two (BCU stores mileage as well as the speedo). If it happens...

Do all the indicators work? If they do then you may have the wrong wattage bulb fitted in one of them, should be 21w

That doesn't mean another one isn't knackered, its not uncommon for all of them to go at once or in quick succession

I doubt very much its the ews (alarm) ecu, one things for sure, if this was faulty, the engine wont CRANK, yours does, all it does is sent a coded signal to the engine ecu, the engine ecu does the rest. I reckon you have a fuel pump fault, yes they have known to pack up just by turning the...

Not sure where you can get one, search ebay and the net. Early one wont fit cos the bumper is a different shape.

Sounds very much like an injector fault. To find out which one without paying dealer prices for diagnosis, take off the engine cover to get to the injectors, with the engine running (make sure it's cold and missfiring, i.e, the fault is present) starting at no1 injector, unplug it and see if the...

Usually its caused by the XYZ switch or gear position switch, its on the side of the gearbox and tells the ECU what gear you have selected. Usually when the marks and spencer lights (M&S geddit? doh!) come on, the gearbag will default to third as a limp home mode. This can also be caused by low...

**** all that, just bolt the 4.6 in and try it, I reckon it'll be fine. It'll bolt to your original 'box so I wouldn't worry, if it blows up then do something about it. I've got a 3.5 V8 in a cortina on the original 2.0 axle, so far i've done 20,000 miles with it like this, why upgrade if...

Well I wouldn't want to upset anyone.
