Are you getting a specific code, and what reader. Could be a specific LR code that is more descriptive. Hopefully someone will come along with more FL2 knowledge, but more info can be helpful. Do you hear the handbrake release and if so does it sound different, maybe one side releasing.

As bleeding again made it worse, that might suggest a bleeding issue, as you can get gears. What make of master and slave cylinder did you use? (although its not a slave I think its a concentric cylinder). There has been modifications to enable the pedal to push further into the master cylinder...

Hi, could I take the cover from you? I shall PM you now

Ebay member jnea4995 breaks freelanders. He's in castle Bromwich not too far from you. I don't know if he'd fit for you but might be worth asking if he can supply and fit.

Pictures, before and after if possible to give good comparison

The stopcock is the responsibility of the water company, so if it fails and won't shut off give them a call. I like the idea of doing it live though!!!

On many vehicles a failed crank sensor can be seen by when cranking the rev counter doesn't move, if that happens on the fl2 I don't know. Ideally while in fault to check the signal at ecu with oscilloscope, rather than moving connectors that could be suspect.

Silly possibility, are the wheel nuts tight? Had some knocking on a car and found I hadn't tightened the wheel nuts fully. (I can forget anything!) You could remove drop links to confirm ARB all good.

It sounds poss loss of boost pressure, could be split hose or vacuum actuator circuit. best person for help is @Nodge68 who can assist with many common failure points. White smoke on startup is unburnt diesel, which could be just a glowplug failed. Breather filter is quite important and often...

Ask in the freelander section for a wider audience. Any smoke, if so when and what colour. How does it start, has the crank time changed? Did it happen straight after the belt fail? Or is it an issue that caused the belt fail? Describe the light, is it deff the engine management light, post pic...

Document everything that is done and said at the dealership, never know if you may need it. Can you get the battery tested independently?

Is it to stop the thieving scum siphoning the diesel out, so they just put a screwdriver in the tank instead?

Window dropping to open door would indicate micro switch ok, as above could be internal lock issue. to remove, this post may help https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/freelander-1-tailgate-wont-open.298930/ How is the window disconnected? Can you reconnect as the glass needs to drop to open

great, thanks. Shall be on it the weekend.

Looking at https://www.fuddymuckers.co.uk/rtfm/Freelander/F1/F1_1996_Electrical_Circuit_Diagrams.pdf Under engine management, MEMS The 20Amp fuse feeds relay main (R100), which is controlled by the ECM. Either the relay is stuck energized or the ECM is sending constant signal. A mutlmeter in...

Hi, need to replace brake lines from rear on the freelander 1. Am I correct they are all double flare, been reading not to use single flare on car brakes? Ran pipes and did double flares but are leaking, so going to re do completely. Wasn't happy with the flares so going to get different flare...

Colour change in lights, dimming? That would suggest the window is getting power but unable to open. Very possible is the cables have failed. Replacement isn't too hard.

Land rover never factored in breaking down

An open tail gate is a good indication the car is stationary, so don't break down at night!
