My 55 plate Petrol passed MOT today, no advisories for the 3rd year running. Very happy bunny and love my Freelander.

thanks for the replies............. The reception general is poor which I think is done to what Nodge68 is saying, if I go under a bridge I lose reception altogether. There is no difference if the engine is running or at higher revs, it gets much worse when electrical components are used -...

I've got the original LR radio/CD player in my 55 plate 1.8 and I get loads of interference on MW (old school I know!). What sort of suppressor do I need and where do I wire it up ? - thanks

I like to J bolt solution Dippypud, what does the bend of the J attach to ?

I know this is an old thread but I have just come across the same problem. How far down the battery tray is the captive nut ?

Has anyone got one of these and what do you think of it, the last hurrah of the Freelander ? I'm thinking of buying one.

I got a keyfob and programmed from a local locksmith for £75, took about 10 minutes.

Is there any way to check if there is any gas in the air con system or how to check any of the components like the compressor. I have a 55 plate petrol (bought it last December) and have sorted all the minor niggles and replaced the HG and very happy with it except the air con does not seem to...

I loosened my throttle cable and cured my HDC light being on.

Good call Alibro. Loosened the cable 4 turns on the nut and hey presto the light has gone out. Thanks all.

I think you are right td4van. Long shot - has anyone got a code reader in the Chesterfield area ?

Throttle cable adjustment and new pot fitted (best price was Rimmers by the way) but light is still on. The odd thing is if I start the car with the brake pedal held down the light does not come on straight away when setting off but does after about 500 yards. Any other ideas ?

I had the HG done a couple of hundred miles ago and I'm going to drain/flush & refill at the weekend. Seen previous threads where different methods are suggested on how best to drain & flush and also what the Haynes manual says. What do you guys recommend ........ - header tank cap off - does...

Am I right in thinking the pot is by the pedal and on a 55 plate and cannot be replaced - it comes complete with the pedal assembly ? Is there any way to test the pot ? I'll try the throttle adjustment first in the engine bay. thanks for the advice chaps

The HDC warning light on my 55 plate has come on. On ignition it comes on with all the other warning lights and when the engine is started it goes off. Once I start to move, forward or reverse, it comes on. Sometimes after 50 yards, sometimes after half a mile - then stays on. I've...

I had the same problem a few weeks ago so checked the connections behind the rear door panel and they were ok. I then used a test light on the filaments and found some were slightly worn through on the bottom - it looks like as the window goes up and down they wear away. I bought some liquid...

Thanks fellas, I'll check......

I've just replaced the clutch master & slave cylinder on my 55 plate 1.8 and wondered how much movement I should expect, if any, when used. When the clutch pedal is depressed there is some very slight movement of the slave bracket and cylinder as it pushes against the locating arm. Is this...

Do you have any details of the thermostat conversion kev1nlm ?
