Hey up all, Well, i havent posted on here for a while, mainly because 1) I can offer no expert advice as my mechanical experience is pretty limited and 2) I havent had any issues with my freelander (td4) for a while. However, this has now changed, i was experiencing loss of power...

Cheers optimus prime, you was spot on with your diagnosis.:D After a fiddle about with the connector/plug that goes into the brake fluid resevoir, everything seems ok now, it was slightly bent so i presume the mechanic must have leant on it or knocked it. Thanks again!

Hi All! Just got my freelander back from having new fuel pump fitted and now when driving (obviously,handbrake is off) the handbrake light flashes on and off randomly, especially going up hill. Checked fluid level which is ok, so could they have knocked something when fittin the fuel...

Ok Cheers. It did have a new fuel filter put on in december as part of a service, but then again i suppose it can still get blocked or maybe have not been put on properly. So will check that cheers.

Cheers Ming for the reply! Looks like you're spot on with your diagnosis. Took to garage and hooked up to computer and 4 faults came back all relating to fuel problems (fuel pressure was reading 2.00 bar). Looks like its me fuel pump as when it doesnt start, a...

Hello all, Havent posted on here for a while (although always come on and have a gander through the threads) mainly beacause i must have one of the good ones (or so i thought!!). Had very very few problems other than wear and tear in the 12 months of ownership (01 td4) although one...

Probably sumat simple but my front washers arent working,(back one is fine) recently filled up, but no joy. I remenber it started couple of months ago, they were empty so put some alredy diluted screenwash in, they didnt work for few days, then some black **** come out then they were fine...

Yeah thems the ones, (it was a white one). Cheers everyone, what kind of rep have they got? Looks wise they certainly look more capable than owt else i have seen off road.

Hello all, i have posted a thread on the general L/R sub-forum already, but thought i,d let my fellow freelandees in on my query. Last week in another village of rotherham (wath) i spotted a beast of a machine in the petrol station, it caught everyones eye and looked like some sort...

Hello All, Last week while leaving a local tescos a beast of a machine was at the petrol station next door, i wasn't the only one who rubberknecked as i drove past it either. It looked like something from star wars or something from the gulf war used in the desert. After closer...

Me thinks you might have solved the problem, its not as stupid question as you thnk coz i didnt know about it. It does make sense coz i have a habit of pressing the wrong button when locking up. It hasnt happened since and only them 2 times. Cheers :D p.s. what is the point/benefit of being...

Hi all, Another little niggle, noticed it last sunday at morrisons. Locked up as normal to do a shop.When i returned my rear window was completely down (open). After having a go at our lass for pressing the button (which she denied) i was almost certain i had not pressed it, and its...

Thanks alot everybody for your advice, got problem sorted. Me mate had a tinker, Poor connection but working now. One more little niggle, though gonna post a new thread about it so more people will read it. Cheers again!! :)

Hi all, Just been told that me Main/back brake lights arent working (both of em) thought it too much of a coincedence but changed bulbs anyway but no joy!:( I am presuming its loose connection (or sumat) can anyone do me a favour and point me in the right direction please. (did a...

Naa then mingy, Less of the knee jokes,it might make me want to drown me sorrows and get legless!! :D Its a 2001 (y) td4 (apparently they changed it in 2001). I have since realised i have got the handbook but cant find it, shes denying shes moved it from where i know i left it. (got me mot...

Heyup all, Realised the other day that me fan belt needed replacing, so sorted one but didnt realise you have to get down and go in from underneath,(which i am unable to do at minute due to a recent knee op) Me mate had a look says he will do it but it looks a bit complex so wants...

Could be the real Carl Lewis if he owns a gaylander, he did bat for other side after all. ;) p.s. After he retired from sprinting in 96, I am certain he did a few years competing as a long jumper. (could be wrong though).

Got a 2001 td4, and do alot of short trips to mine and our lasses works (each under 12 mile round trip), and a full tank (52quid) always takes me past 400 mile mark, best so far is 425.

I Will be forking out mesen for one soon as me bank balance recovers from 2 week in ibiza. From what i gather them who have one are well impressed. roverron did have a buy it now link on one of his threads, if ya do a search it should come up.
