    Freelander 1 Td4 won’t start- HELP!

    If the crank hasn't "appeared" to have failed with the @Nodge68 test, I would get a set of known working injectors (that are spraying correctly), ideally new or recon' ones. Put them in and re-try. If the engine is in poor condition and you eventually swap it out, then you have a new set of...

    Freelander 1 Switch - Parking Aid System SKU: YUG500330PUY

    Hello @Nodge68, I fitted the latching switch and blanking insert today. Do you know if the blanking insert attaches to the wiring for a cruise control circuit please? I think it is but a second opinion is valued!

    Freelander 1 5dr late model facelift, front door cards

    Front door LHD window is not actuating. I haven't established if cable has failed or whether the assembly with the friction pad has slipped. Least ways it's at the bottom of the door cavity, attached to something... Light outside is failing and I slashed a finger trimming the adhesive to...

    Good thinking @Nodge68 ! I'm going to replace the master cylinder, I wish I could find a metal, robust MC, but there you go!

    Freelander 1 TD4 clutch master cylinder pressurised bleeder kit

    In the good old days I used a Gunson device pressurised by the spare (probably on my old mini's). I'm looking for a recommendation for a kit/tool/device that adapts to our needs on freelancers. I want to change all my hydraulic fluids, RELIABLY. :rolleyes: Thanks.

    Thank you very much @Nodge68. One for the answer directly and two, for putting me out of my misery trying to recall the technical phrase. Latching!! :rolleyes:

    Egr Blanking Mod

    I like, no, LOVE this type of near zero cost practical type of modification. I did this on my Peugeot Partner. Mind you, I also removed the crankcase breather return to the inlet manifold and put a breather filter on. Why do I mention this? Well, I was rolling down a hill recently and the...

    Freelander 1 Switch - Parking Aid System SKU: YUG500330PUY

    Have I worn my welcome out yet???? I just received a new switch - Parking Aid System SKU: YUG500330PUY direct from LandRover. The switch in the newly arrived 2005 TD4 manual is broken. Not sure how or why, as was the glove box door and the other blanking plug next to it. I was expecting it...

    Hello @kernowsvenski, I'm between Carhaix-Plouguer and Callac. No streetlights. Lots of forest. What's a village?? LOL. About 30 minutes from Morlaix. Korrigans for friends... :eek:

    For Sale Freelander 1 TD4 52 plate breaking for parts.

    Hey @pscan.eu, what's the steering wheel like please? Would you mail it to France? I've had no problems with second-hand parts being mailed out here from UK. Let me know please! Oh and if you decide to break the engine, the inlet manifold would be of interest too!

    Some days I wonder about whether I have reached the age where I can self justify treachery and being an outlaw. As in take the airbag out, fashion a sensor disable circuit and saw my 12 gauge down. But I was brought up proper. And I like things correct. Thanks all, expect an update next week...

    Thanks, merci bien! I have to say I have never been mistreated by the french, contrary to popular stories. I have experienced mistreatment myself and witnessed poor behaviour by the british here toward each other, which is incomprehensible. Food parcels are a no now. No mars bars, no baked...

    NEVER give up! My strategy, clean and do my best, I have a call on Monday for a NEW old stock item in Germany for less than 100,00€ shipped and tonight I found 3 leather refinishers in my neck of the woods, Bretagne. The reason I say never give up is why there are light aircraft in the sky...

    Here is how it looks from the inside (awful steering wheel innit?)... posted elsewhere... in progress. Received an unused new secondhand Ronbox with Pierburg Man today. Survey of problems complete. I think my post woman is wondering what all the parcels are about. LOL. Thanks for the warm...

    @Nodge68, @Jayridium, @kernowsvenski, I just found a NEW leather MGF wheel in Germany for 99,00€ !! :D:D:D Given the import duties now for anything from UK, this is most likely my route. Just need to call the people on Monday and check that the part is indeed NEW (call me a sceptic if you...

    Now that is very interesting @Nodge68 on the MGF front. Thanks for confirming the interchangeability mentioned earlier in this thread. It may be I can find one at a more reasonable price than an LR one and use it while I re-trim or modify mine. Or just use it.
