Hi, A professional should sell you a complete car ! No propshaft is already a problem, maybe there is others, once you buy, the seller will not answer any calls from you. Are you realy expecting a warranty for a 20 years old cars … ?

Hi, There is one bolt on the plastic engine cover, if not well tighten it can let oil leak. Regards

Hi, Personnaly I don’t buy that sort of cars, they goes from owner to owner. Each buyer think he can fix it, and finaly sell it with more issues. Good luck

Hi, You should change both of them, since the drive shaft is out. Regards.

You should check all of this, you don’t want to break the belt again, all the pulleys should be checked including the tensionner. Full kit, depending on the quality you could have some issues …

Hi, 2 options, only fix what has broken with the belt, with luck only some valves are bent. You do a full engine repair … For the belt you should look at the condition of the pulley and tensioner. Certainly not changed with the belt ? Regards

Hi, Jumping gear, your gearbox is in it’s way out … you should take that seriously … Regards.

Hi If the clutch has done 110 000 miles … better to replace it with the slave cylinder. For the bleeding, get someone experienced with you to do the job. So you know the bleeding was done correctly, and if it’s no better you are good for a clutch change. Regards

Hi, 4 tires change on the FL1 only if it is a 4 by 4. 2 wheel drive freelander, you still have a rear diff that need oil, 2 drive shafts that have boot gaiters that can leak grease. And you still pay for the rear geometry, and pay more for the MOT than a 2 wheels drive car.

Hi You can get a door for less then £200, a wing for around £100, but you will not get the good color. You can’t have get better prices … For the paint job you should ask for a price, you can end up paying about £300 or more for a wing …

I should say, It’s not your problem, you paid for new tires and a geometry, renewed brakes, something went wrong … they give you a waranty. It not normal in 6 months and 14 000 miles to have this issues ! Get back to the garage … they must fix It as a waranty they give you !

Hi, On the freelander 1 you need to change all the 4 tires at the same times. If the propshaft was removed, you still have a differential and 2 drives shafts that you need to service … For the front tires, are they rightly inflated ? A picture of the tire can help. Bad suspenssion or bad tie...

Hi, Fuel filter ? In the fuel tank with the pump ? Enough words to scare anyone.

Hi, In 2025, most breakers sells parts online. Use your favourite search engine, like google ... For a driver door, you will need to change the trim and the key barrel ... You will certainly need a paint job, even if you find the part with the right color, you will have a color difference. The...

Hi, When they gives you the price for replacing the gearbox, you need to know the condition of the part ( new, used, re-manufactured, refurbished ... ) ? The warranty time ? 6 months ? 1 year ? 2 years ? Do you already have a garage or someone that want to replace the gearbox for you ? You...

Hi, You should look how much time waranty they gives you for the job. Unless you find a gearbox specialist who can check the gearbox, do some repairs or renew solenoids, you are stuck. For the oil change, it's complicated to do the change without the right tooling ( unless you do 3 or 4 oil...

Hi, Don't put cheap vcu bearings, they do the job, but they are little noisy after some years. Regards

Hi Does the gearbox oil has been changed ? Does the gearbox codes has been read ? According to the price for the gearbox change, it’s most certaintly a refubished one, or a exchange one.

Hi, First what was the issue ? automatic gearbox can be repaired ... For the garage, without knowing if It is a new gearbox or a refubished one … but it’s a gearbox change price after all. If you get a second hand one, depending from where It is sourced, if It is from a low mileage car. You...

Hi, You can use an AGM battery ( can be fully discharged without any issue ) which cost less than lithium one. I see too many issues, you want to put a second battery in the boot, also using to start the car and for using the radio. The alternator is not designed for charging 2 batteries at...
