    IRD early fail signs

    IRD early fail signs

    It felt like the prop shaft was wobbly at the front end which is making me think it's the ird bearing or is there something on the prop that can go ?? But just normal noise of gearbox noise that 4x4 seem to have. Gears. Select smooth tho so any other suggestions on what it may be ?

    Squeaking from front left

    Don't think it's wheel bearing as there more of a drone sound and are louder on turn that's got more force on it. Have had it coasting with engine off when I've been out of the car seems to be that area. Is the back plate needed?? They are really hot when I've driven it. Just the squeak is odd...

    Freelander 1 turbo location HELP

    Hi all I've had power issues so I have cleaned the EGR Valve and the map sensor. New air filter and new crank case filter and had the actuator freed up which had all made massive improvement.

    Dip in power

    I used carb cleaner to remove the grid then rag and tooth brush so I get it all back out of it. Still getting a dip but it's at 85mph now and think this is to do with the hoses collapsing as they are very soft so getting new ones ordered see if that sorts the problem but. Cleaning has made...

    very interesting so is this fully legal todo. I guess the body will come off the chassis? So is it disco running gear underneath? Also does this mean for the freelander that if chassis rots you can just plant it on a new one? Same with the body of the freelander body can be repaired etc. Sorry...
