Thank you both for your help, this is why I love this page. Going to pick it up in the next hour or so and probably have a look at it tomorrow

Cheers mate, that was the sort of info I was looking for

How about the possibility of a damaged gear box due to the IRD failure?

Hi, my girlfriends Freelander has just gone into the garage due to a loud clonking noise (didn’t hear it myself but that’s what I’m told), the mechanic has said that the transfer box/IRU has gone. He tried to disconnect the rear to just have FWD but was still making a noise. He reckons it has...

Just found 4 48w led flood lights for £35 on Amazon, tempting price

Don’t really want to spend too much on a decent set as there is a chance they are going to get damaged. Also the yellowish glow of the halogen I have found is a lot better for spotting rats. I did look at led units

Looking for some rectangular spot lights to use on a ATV buggy for rat shooting. They don’t need to be anything fancy. Cheap as possible and ideally looking for 4, however happy just to collect odds and sods until I get the right amount. Steve

Sorry I meant to say can I check without taking the timing cover off and just checking the pump and TDC alignment, or would this not give a clear indication of a jumped belt?

Is it possible for me to check to see if it has slipped by locking TDC and trying to insert the locking pin?

I would of thought that if it was timing belt related that the engine would of cut out. That's why I jumped to the conclusion that it was bottom end too. I will check the timing tomorrow. I didn't want to video it because I was worried about causing more damage, I wish I did now

Was driving for a few hours on Sunday and as I pulled up at a shop, all of a sudden the engine started knocking like someone was hitting it with a hammer. Lifted the bonnet and opened the oil filler cap and the noise didn't get louder. Took the rocker cover off and again still wasn't any louder...
