Take one Freelander with a dead 1.8... Take one Rover 75 1.8T, in need of a clutch... Remove dead engine from Freelander... Just need to find time this coming week to get the turbo lump into place :D

Disable the immobiliser to replace the ECU. The current ECU has died, and has no communication with any diagnostic tools. I have a spare ECU in the shed, from another MEMS3 Freelander, but it will not work due to different security codes :(

Having issues with a Freelander I bought for the wife. Not given her the car yet, as the ECU is playing up. Have got a spare ECU, but is it possible to disable the immobiliser? I am aware it is coded to each car, and a 2nd hand ECU wont work, as the security codes dont match. Either...

The car has already had the MLS gasket fitted by the previous owner. I had a spare head set in the shed, as it was always the plan to do it before fitting. No point in doing it twice though. Car was thoroughly tested for overheating on the drive home ;) The 75 rad appears to be around...

This Rover 75 is kindly donating its 1.8 Turbo lump, ready to be dropped into a Freelander with a 1.8 with HGF 150bhp + 160LbFt as standard. 205Bhp + 199LbFt with a remap And it will be a daily driver :)

I have a Freelander in the drive that needs a head gasket, along side a Rover 75 1.8 turbo :D Just need to find some spare time to swap it over :(

I will be aiming for 200bhp, and 200LbFt (265Nm-ish) Just need to know the clutch will be upto the job before putting it all back together

Just checked, the L-Series only has 155LbFt? Seems rather low for a turbo diesel... Tell me more about his HD clutch though. The part numbers I get are UQB500010 for the clutch plate, and URB000070 for the cover...

Needing an uprated clutch for my K series Looking through Microcat earlier today, it would seem that the K + L-Series engines share the same clutch assembly. So, before splashing out on an expensive uprated one, what is the standard clutch rated to? If it's good enough for a fairly...

Seems a whole lot of hassle for not a lot of extra power...

I have a good low mile engine and turbo for sale. £500 for both if interested :)

Unless it is a genuine facelift car, that was bought with a broken head gasket, facelift bits went onto an early car, and pre facelift bits went back onto the newer car, so it was still "complete" for anyone unsuspecting...

I have a good diff going spare. PM me if interested :)

As per title, breaking to fund another project, involving another Freelander. And the wife is coming off work for a few months due to an operation, so cash will be a bit tight. Car is an 05MY, SE spec, Cairns Blue, Manual. Being an 05MY, it is obviously a facelift model Car has done a...

At the time of posting, it was correct :) However, my own car passed its MOT in June of this year, with no EGR's and no CAT. The downpipe was removed, and replaced with a straight through pipe. The EGR pipes from the manifold were blanked, and the valves no longer attached to the engine No...

Never seen a TDV6 head gasket fail. Have seen a few issues with cracked blocks though... Before going down that route, check the EGR coolers. Will give very similar symptoms to head gasket issues, and are a whole lot cheaper to replace than head gaskets, or an engine...

£445 for an SMF, Valeo clutch + slave £450 for a DMF, B+B clutch + slave Price difference is irrelevant, looking for personal experience from those that have fitted an SMF kit, ideally. In all reality, the car will probably not be used enough to risk a new DMF wearing out. Have heard...

Is there a reasonably priced replacement available yet? My local dealer can get one, but at £320... Not too good at the whole fabrication thing. Car is off the road due to no MOT, and the cradle is in 3 pieces :rolleyes:
