I do have a haynes manual, but the maintenance procedure doesn't always back up the few pictures they include in the manual, plus the pictures are difficult to locate in the engine bay. For example - I'm now reading on how to 'bleed the clutch' Ch 6.3 para 5.5 by attaching a pressure bleed kit...

RE:TheTakman That's the cable I have, I initially bought it for my VW Golf, then had an idea about using it joined to a 20 pin cable I had for my BMW. In the end I didn't use it on either car, the Golf got sold, I realized from the advice I received was to buy the proper diagnostic for the BMW...

So from my initial post you would say that possibly mine would need bleeding too? How easy is that to do - are there any pics on the site showing forum users what to do? I have an 'easy bleed' pump system, the sort you use for bleeding the brakes, would that work? I know before I bought the...

Hello I'm new to the TD4 Freelander. The one I have seems to have been looked after at 94K miles, I was wondering what the clutch pedal was meant to feel like? I haven't experienced any difficulty in engaging gears of such & the vehicle has no problem accelerating through the gears. Having...

I presume there are no programs like the BMW's Easy DIS diagnostic platform running via vmware using the OBD interface & serial cable? I'm new to this vehicle type & just doing some groundwork into putting together a DIY diagnostic package for myself. If 'Hawkeye' diagnostic handheld is the...

Yes that's great! This is the item I have - see pic. So what software is available - something that would or has the same capability as the hand held device - 'Hawkeye'? I want to be able to read and have access to all available modules in the TD4 and have the diagnostic/clearing...

I have a Vag-Com Cable, 16 pin to usb type. What Pc/Mac software could I use to get this cable working on my TD4? Alternatively I still have a switchable ADS/OBD interface unit I bought for my BMW, now if I bought another Vag-Com cable, this time 16 pin male one end & 16 pin female the other...

Hello I have a TD4 3 dr commercial van, the last owner had put clear side quarter windows in, removing the solid plates. I have the solid plates and was wondering how to 'refit' them in place of the clear windows? I notice that there are about 7 or 8 bolt holes all around the solid plates...

I'm near Manchester,UK

Cheers for that info.

Where is the best place or best priced outlet to have a TD4 freelander ignition key cut? Also how do you go about programming the key fobs for the TD4 freelander? Thanks in advance

As mentioned the noise DOESN'T appear on FULL lock in both directions.. It is audible only when the steering wheel is say, at the HALF way turn point between centre and full lock. There is no clatter or noise when full lock has been reached.

I'm new to the freelander and wanted to know where the OBD diagnostic port was situated on the car? Also what software and interface can I use? I'm used to having a BMW and am familiar with the EASY DIS diagnostic software running from a laptop. Is there anything similar for the Land Rover...

Hello all I've just bought my 1st Freelander TD4,3 door commercial van,94k miles. Needs a bit of a tidy inside and a few other bits of cosmetic tidying doing to it. Did notice though whilst the engine is on, the car in neutral, if I turned the steering wheel left or right towards full lock...

Whats your for sale? :D

Can anyone tell me if or how you can tell if a seller has wound back the mileage on the clock of a freelander van? I don't want to know how it can be done, I want to know if its possible, as I have come across a very low mileage 1 van owner, that has had to have a new clutch at 45 thousand...

can anyone tell me if its possible to put rear seats into a commercial freelander td4? Thanks in advance of replies :D

Anyone know of any reputable land rover dealers in the Manchester (UK) area? Possibly for used models in good condition. Thanks :D

Thanks Skynet :D I'm not looking to do anything extreme with the vehicle, just interested in buying a rugged vehicle that can withstand the lumps & bumps on our UK roads not to mention a vehicle that can safely manoeuvre through the ice & snow should we get any more! I've narrowed it down to...

There's probably a sub section for this that I have overlooked. But anyway I'm looking to but a 4wd. For Example, possibly a Freelander with the XEDI Engine, don't know why but the Land Rover seems to have a poor rating score on the Which Car Magazine. So on that note, before I hand over any...
