Contacted main dealer re the paint code. Gave him the VIN number and after much key board tapping he comes back to say that no paint code is listed against the car. He then went on to say that there are five greens that were used on the FL and suggested that I take the car to a motor factor to...

Contacted main dealers re these two O rings that Haynes say have to be replaced. " Don't know what your taking about never seen ,stocked or fitted O rings when changing filters " Ho Hum.........

'99 1.8 73 K miles Did search and found a lot of info on this and it looks like this is the culprit behind the car cutting out after 1/2 an hour or so driving . It has always re started after sitting for a minute or two and then continued until it repeats again. Basic symptoms are like water in...

Mmm... I'll bow to your better knowledge . The service book states model as " Freelander M25 " which may be a model sold by dealers within the M25 circle . The supplying dealer was Park Lane Land Rover London . It is fitted with every listed option inc Leather, Harmon Kardon,LR spots , 17"...

Should the petrol filler cap on a '99 5 door be vented to atmosphere ? When it is removed for filling there is a distict hiss of air either escaping or more likely being sucked in. Cheers

Good man . I'll call them on Monday. Thanks

Need to touch up some stone chips and went to get the paint code on the VIN plate on the bulkhead. There is a paint code section but no details are stamped on it ,WTF ! Is that the only point of info on the car re paint code ? It's a 11-99 petrol 5 door Anniversary model in a dark metallic...

8 years ... ! a long weekend ........... I bought mine in September 1976. Yep 33 years ago....:)

I got a reply back from , Car Stereo Fitting Kits - Land Rover saying nothing was required, plugs straight in. Great , Thanks all. Don

No info for pre 2001 :( I'll get it into my garage re wire the speakers and remove the original to see what connector is at the back at the weekend after I complete the gearbox change on this, You got one ?.....

I did and nothing came up for pre 2001. I'm now wondering if an adaptor is required only for models with steering wheel operation units. I'll take the original out and have a look . Thanks lads.

Bought a new head unit for our '00 five door Freelander with ISO connection. Before I start the job , which entails removing an HK sub and rewiring rear speakers, can I ask does the year 2000 Freelander require an ISO adaptor for the stereo wiring ? Thanks Don

Sorry for the delay in replying. I only started the thread in early June ,'fraid I haven't had a chance to dig deeper into it yet. To be honest I'm thinking I'll leave the amp out of the car and just go for a good head unit. I'll still have to sort out the rear door speaker wiring as it's been...

Our late '99 Freelander anniversary model came with a boot mounted amp. and twin speaker set up (Park Lane Landrover , London ). It has Harmon Kardon badges on the front tweeter covers but no manufacturers name on the amp .I removed it after the boot well flooded and removed the terminal...

Hi I've had this problem on both front doors. Firstly remove the door card and have a look at the mechanism . If it is , as likely, the wound steel wire that has broken you will see it immediatly . I found on mine it severed at the lower pulleys. I've read about repairs being made with...

On our's there is a sub with two speakers fitted under the lid of the recess in the boot. The lead should have a four pin connector . It's lilkely that the system has been removed after it was submerged . It's probable that the two rear door speakers are disconnected and the cables run to the...

We run 225/55/17 Yokahama Geolander ST/S . The car is not used for serious off roading although is used on farm tracks + fields etc. The grip and on road performance is very good with a low road noise . I removed a set of Pirelli Scorpions which were less than 1/2 worn after suffering excessive...

If you aren't sure but think they are aluminium , try a magnet.........

I've got ( had ) a HK subwoofer assembley in the rear well .It's currently out drying off !!!! I'd strongly suggest that you avoid fitting it in there especially if you have an ingress ( posh word for Freelander leak around the tailgate ) of water in there. I've just bought a replacement male /...

I'm what's called a " blow in " :) From Scotland but lived in Beds/Herts for 12 years before comming over to this magnificent place 5 years ago. We're near a place called Killarney in County Kerry. Why I live here :D
