It went through a period after where starting wasn't too bad and then it gradually became crap again up till now .

2.0 l series ,I was hoping the garage would rectify the poor starting on the Freelander, he's advised me to take it to a diesel injection specialist .Terrible starting when left for a long time but no problem starting when left a short period ,white/grey smoke on start up which then clears .he...

Require a glass sunroof panel for a 1999 Freelander 5 door. Metal frame must be rot free , surface rust will be ok .

Do you have a sunroof glass panel with the frame not rotten ,5 door model.

Its the 2.0 diesel L series , marvellous went to get it recovered and it bloody started ,and its started since .

So I get in the Freelander turn the key and it turns over for a second and then nothing ,ignition/glowlight are on ,plenty of power from battery but dead .I'm guessing starter motor problem ,I had to change the solenoid bushes about 3 years ago maybe they need changing again as starting has been...

I replaced mine which was the motor and window regulator ,not a tough job to do .

It was the complete prop including VCU .checked the actuator and when you press the remote to lock and unlock you can hear it working

Knackered then , my god it's never ending with this Freelander,how much I've spent on it and with what still needs doing I could've had a decent one .Sunroof leak to sort ,leak in the tool compartment, front bearing on an advisory.Previously had recon prop ,transfer box ,diff,2 window...

Hi again , the back passenger door actuator doesn't unlock on the fob ,I have to unlock from inside but it will lock on the fob .Do I need a new door lock actuator or has something fell off inside the door ?

Fantastic, cheers for that ,the next thing they'll ask is what's the reg number of your rover

Yes ,my fault DOH !!!!

Is there more than 1 application for the glowplug relay .Rang 2 places and they say dealer part .Isn't the rover 400,45 200 L series the same as the Freelander?

All done

Right just about to go out and see what the crack us with this belt .

Yes ,one for AC ,one without .Mine has AC but belt is too big and listing stated with AC .

Thanks for that ,I knew I hadn't fitted it wrong ,looks like they've given me the wrong belt .

Hi all ,has anyone got a diagram or where can I find one to see how the auxillary belt goes on to all pulleys on the L series Freelander please

With the help of Nodge I've done mine ,bushes changed ,clips in place and both links changed as one had snapped.managed to do mine without dropping the front subframe and its all nice and tight without the knocks .

The problem has suddenly stopped ,STRANGE !!!!
