    O am using it since version 160 and works both offline and online but you are better off downloading all calibration files (80GB) and as built data with the right patch which is included in the ISO I provided.

    Freelander 1 Coolant loss on 1.8 petrol

    If you do the head gasket change inlet manifold gasket as well. Much easier with head on bench.

    Freelander 1 Coolant loss on 1.8 petrol

    Freelander 1 strange headlamps behaviour

    Hi this is unseen by me. If I set the headlight to level 1 they go up and down in a very funny way. If I set it to 1... they are stable. Is it the switch or is there any calibration for the motors? 2002 1.8

    you need to go to options and download all calibration files this will take many hours, over 80gb of data and that is if you have 163 patched correctly to allow access to jlr servers for those... vbfs

    yeah we are not getting any younger :) I now have yet another k series freelander which guess what it needs I will give you a small hint: head gasket. Nasty misfire as well left me on M62 to be trailered away in order to keep them cats unmelted. 4x4 working at least.
