Hi, 5 minutes to change, but cost almost 100 bucks in new. If it’s dead you can’t start at all. First clean the connector to see if it is better. Also if the engine lack of power, it can be a split turbo hose. Can be the egr that is not opererating as it should, because a vacuum hose is split.

I have a freelander 2004 td4 S, and it has automatic air conditioning. You should certaintly have at least manual air conditioning on freelander 1 td4.

There are long and thin spanner designed for the tensionners. If your spanner is not that long, reaching the tensionner can be an issue.

Hi, Check that you have the right tools first. You will need special tools to hit the tensionner for removing the belt.

Hi, Erase the code to see if it came back. Can be the sensor, you can change it to see if it solve the issue.

Hi, The lights are indicating an issue. You should use a fault reader to read the OBD codes. Regards

Hi, I don’t think that has something to do with the glow plugs. If the car was poorly starting before it’s probably something else. So if the starter doesn’t turn. Check the battery connectors.

If It is the freelander 1, you had certaintly removed the inlet manifold for changing the plugs. Check the sensors that you had unpluged. No starting, … some hints may help, like does it crank …

Hi, Does it’s start before changing the glow plugs ?

Hi, The flywheel is not that needed. But you will need gear box oil MTF94, and ird oil.

Hi, Does it's try to start with brake cleaner ? If there no fuel leak, so can be a dying injector or the hp fuel pump. If there is no fuel leaks anywhere, and no greasy fuel pipe, so injectors fuel return flow test need to be done.

Hi, Crank sensor can gives issues when the engine is warm. Any codes ? Regards.

Hi, For the clutch plate put what you want, only the salve/master need to be replace by a genuine or LUK made slave. If you already had a new the OEM master, no need to replace it again. But you need you will need certainly to flush it indidualy. Regards.

If the car has different tires with uneven wear or the VCU is too stiff the IRD is more likely to fail than because of an oil issue. Check you have 4 tires all the same. If the VCU is to stiff, VCU bearing and universal joints should break before the IRD, and the read Diff.

You need to remove fill plug before the drain plug if you don't want to get stuck with an empty IRD. You can easily find a compatible oil for the IRD compared to the TD4 gearbox. Regards

Hi, There is no way to know if the oil was changed. when the clutch was done. You can do the clutch without removing the IRD ... so you don't need to renew the IRD oil. Regards

Hi, Try to jump start the car. No cranking at all when trying to start ? Good battery voltage ? When was the last time, the car has started ? Regards.

You can find one from bearmach. Can be found on ebay.

Toping a manual gearbox is easy once you undo the fill plug. Auto gearbox is another story.

Hi, The front part is thinner on some models. Mainly designed to access the roof. Also they are certainly heavely rusted under the pastic finisher. Regards.
