    Can amps/model of alternator be assessed?

    Thanks a lot for the advice, it's very kind of you both to help me. Maybe something like this? £90 though. Sealey Tools Voltmeter & Ammeter BT91/5 on eBay (end time 09-Apr-10 17:02:07 BST)

    Freelander 2 (07)

    Got my remote batteries off Ebay, less than £2.00 each inc delivery. The battery can't be dead if the doors open, sounds like a transponder issue possibly? (Inside the key itself, rather than the fob). Best go to the dealer, find the fault then search for cheaper online if possible.

    Think P38's are expensive in the UK, Have a look at this fool in Ireland!!

    How much is it worth, about £7K?, if so why are they asking £13,390 It looks OK, (the wing mirror caps can be replaced and the side vents sprayed black), and it does have leather and parking sensors but still, for £15K you can get: Freelander 2 Discovery 3 Defender TD5 with air...

    Td4 Acoustic cover

    Missing Link[/I], I wouldn't put it past the dealer to snap some fixings off a cover and not replace it. (A dealer's mechanic once nicked my mobile phone out of a locked glove box - left it there on a test drive). Do you think the later models MY04 got a smaller cover because the engine...

    what modifications have you done

    Lovely car Freebiker, and thanks for showing us all the photos. I'd love an exhaust like that and as you said it's got better ground clearance so it's a functional improvement. I've seen your profile pic before actually, but forgot it was yours. :) I like the idea of keeping my car until it...

    Freelander ES 2002 TD4 - CD Changer Query

    Woops! Sorry about that. My newbie skills once again.

    Important MAF information hopefully useful to all

    Thanks again for the information Ricko, helps us all out. :)

    what modifications have you done

    I'm with you on the mods idea freebiker, nice one. In my view it would be preferable to reduce the huge exhaust back box off the back of the freelander to increase ground clearance, at the same time adding some nice fat dual pipes wrapping around the side to make it look better. Don't know if...

    Freelander ES 2002 TD4 - CD Changer Query

    Hi. I think I've found an un-used socket for an autochanger. (I think my vehicle has an autochanger facility, because it says 'load' on the CD button player on the unit - as in load multiple discs). Quick look reveals, no Philips/Alpine unit under either of the front seats, or an amp...

    Freelander Cruise control help needed please

    Thanks for the info on that Herald. So basically I can't fit CC because the factory loom is missing under the seat?

    Important MAF information hopefully useful to all

    So this is a new BMW Pierberg with IAT sensor vs the 'old' Mercedes Pierbeg that needed the MAFAM from Rover Ron? Which means it's a direct swap for the factory Td4 MAF but with better performance? Sounds like a good find Ricko.

    FREELANDER: Equally bad to other 4x4'S.

    The MK1 Freelander (that's now transformed as the MK2) was the best selling small SUV/4x4 in Europe until 2002 - even if it does break down, especially in 1.8L petrol form thanks to the head gasket and other well discussed issues. However............ Looking at ratings from from WHATCAR...
