    Radio Issues

    I'm not a Freelander owner but I had a similar issue in a Merc van. Did all the checks and swapped the radio only to eventually find that there was a tiny amp in the aerial base and the supply had failed. The 'dead' amp was killing the signal. Anything like this in a Freelander set-up?

    Is it possible that you've got a faulty/damaged height sensor so that you're not getting the correct feedback from one corner. With the car running and the doors shut is one corner still moving slightly after the rest have settled? Have you got, can you borrow any diagnostics? If not DATATEK is...

    P38A Diesel over-heats going up hills?

    How's the rad? Is it getting hot all over? If it's sludged up or the baffle has failed you've lost the effect of the bottom of it so the fan hasn't got much area to cool.

    The under bonnet fuse box normally starts to fail by burning around the blower relays. Blend motors can be replaced without stripping the entire dash out. The AC not going cold could be a loss of gas and the resultant loss of pressure should stop the compressor running the ice warning could...

    Sorry, I'm missing something here. With the door opens you 'freeze' the system so the pump fills the tank without the air being used to lift the bags. So far so good. You close the door, the system then allows the stored air to lift the bags. Still looking good. As long as the heights are...

    over heating problem

    Greetings and welcome to Loony Zone. You say that the garage left the water pump alone. Did they check if it had plastic or metal vanes? The plastic ones can have the vanes disconnect from the shaft so can look good but be as useful as a lace durex. Has anyone tested the viscous fan? Have you...

    what is the best diagnostic equipment

    If you can hunt one down I suppose that the best diagnostics would be the Land Rover testbook but in the sensible world you should be looking at Black Box Faultmate, either the Extreme or the Nano. Unless you're considering setting up a business the Nano will do almost everything that you'll...

    Whys it wonky? (whys it broke!?)

    Are you certain that all of the pipes are in the correct locations in the block? Quick check - when you change heights does the front drop first and rise last?

    urgent advice please - wife just had a crash

    Don't play the insurers game. Your claim is not against Churchill it's against the other driver. If he wishes to pass the costs onto his insurer then that's his affair. You want to return to the point just before the other driver hit you, no more and definitely no less. If Churchill do not...

    Air suspension problem

    The bags can have a leak that can be hidden/sealed by a fold. Try putting the car up to high and squirting it with soapy water. With axle stands in case it comes down rapidly. Little confused that only one bag was down, the car should self level so both fronts, in fact the whole car, should be...
