turns out I actually have the Haynes Manual, that I had forgotten about, ooops In there it says 1.8 bar / 26 psi front and back before 2003 up to 4 passengers (which fits my use) But this random Google find says, "The recommended tyre pressure for the Freelander 1 was initially 32 PSI (2.21...

Cheers! They are back to original LR figures arent they? (I seem to remember they adjusted their advised values then went back to original ones?)

@Nodge - perhaps that's it, although I have left my Essex roots a long way behind, with my youth, so am not that bad :D. I will check if the nearside tyre has more wear on the nearside edge than the offside tyre has on its nearside edge - I think tht should be the case if cornering is to blame...

Hi! I have excessive front tyre wear, but it is on the nearside edge on both That is (on my LHD in Portugal) its on the right hand (of the vehicle) side of both front tyres Maybe I am going around roundabouts (anticlockwise here) too fast? :) I know toe out/in gives inner/outer edge wear, but...

Thanks! Thats exactly the behaviour I have now :) Great, I must have cleaned or bashed something when I sprayed silicon all inside the door whilst I had the door card off before Since my A/C doesnt work (nor my rear seat side leccy windows - until I fit the cable kits I got off flea-bay whilst...

Hi, After fixing my tail gate door lock, the rear window operates slightly differently to before: Before: lowering or raising the window to anything but fully shut or open resulted in the window then closing itself After: I can now stop the window partially open The window lowers / shuts...

Victory is mine! Thanks so much @andyfreelandy! The plastic 'cover' is in fact part of the lock assembly. After getting to look at it after the steps below, I could then see that it did not come off does not come off easily after undoing the two screws as behind the top screw there is a lug...

Thanks! the ebay photos are helpful too (its not so easy getting parts sent from UK out here to Portugal any more after Brexit :( ) I took the two screws out of the plastic cover (top was torx, bottom was Phillips) plastic cover still not coming off (why the *#$%$#! not, does it really have to...

Inventive!

LOL The throttle cable on my 1970 1303 VW beetle broke outside the Ritz in London at rush hour once (I was just passing, I'm not very 'Ritzy'!) A piece of rope from my windsurfing gear tied to the carb and led out through the boot grill around the outside of the car and in through the driver's...

ah! that makes sense from the answers in one of the posts in one of the threads I noted above, where someone said they managed to open the door using a tent peg If it wasnt for all the window down a bit before tailgate opening malarkey, I would just replace the solenoid with a piece of string...

Thanks @andyfreelander There is a black plastic cover over it all on mine - hopefully he two small torx screws will let me get that off in the daylight tomorrow and try It looks to me that the solenoid fixing screw (7.) is not accessible with the latch fixed to the door though? It looks like...

Hi My 5 door tailgate door has been a bit 'temperamental' opening for years but always opened Now it doesn't The window drops the 17 mm and the lock makes a clunk-click noise, but it doesn't open (even with me inside putting the boot in as someone tries from the outside) I took off the inside...

Oh well, its cooled down a bit now, so I'll look at this next summer I think I'm turning Portuguese :D

Right, I will ask about a pressure test then if ok go for a recharge If it doesnt all work I think I will then stop there :D Are the pipes really that expensive?

I might give it a go tho, or its a bit Catch22 - I'll only know if it isnt good if I fill it up And its only about 40 quid here (€50) so the A/C is a use it or loose it thingy then? If it is, then it hasnt been used for at least 5 years

Hi I have a LHD 2001 Td4 down here in Portugal The air-con has never worked and I have never refilled it since I bought the car 5 years ago I guess the first step is to go for a recharge and see what happens, but I have a few questions, please: 1. I have looked at the pipes and some of the...

Have fun!

But, perhaps you could try cleaning your registry with CCleaner free version? Perhaps one to consider if everything else fails. I would try it - you get the option to save registry anyway and I used it regularly when I was on Windows You do seem to be getting toward the everything failing end...
