Hi Robin, Post 10 - And all the other electrics seem fine - wipers and lights operate normally. When I turn the key and get the clicking sound, the dash lights go out with each click. This shows that battery volts disappear when the starter is connected to the battery; Could be a) duff battery...

Check out this thread - http://www.landyzone.co.uk/lz/f9/lack-power-throughout-rev-range-109769.html?highlight=turbo+actuator Ther was some earlier problems with a stuck turbo actuator (adjusts the vane angles) on another post. Didn't see it mentioned in your thread yet. May help?

Got our Synergy2 with the remote switch thingy. Can set to off, setting 1 and another (currently 2) Off - just leaves MAF comp on - better low down pulling than without. Setting 1 - Subtle power boost, initially left the missus hovvering just above the speed limits without noticing, getting used...

Short answer - they ain't. Facelift models (post 2003) only covered by Haynes (patchy) and the subscription system LR introduced for dealers. Costs >£100 per year for basic info. scaled up to £400+ for increase in data access. Keep asking on the forum and some gems will appear - other than that...

Road speed signal comes from the ABS system off one of the front wheel ABS sensors. Its all electronical pulses up to the circuit board behind the speedo and the circuit board drives the little needle round and counts the miles (like a little digital watch). Same signal is used by the radio to...

Have a search for Darmains central locking thread. He knows everything there is to know about the FL locking system - unfortunately! Sounds like he's had the same woes as you describe.

Pardec - third one is lower down under the short right angle hose attached to the EGR - it feeds the output from the turbo into the intercooler. Mine looks different from the other two as it looks thicker and has a wrinkly outer - sort of like a flexible hose. Looks a bit tougher than the other...

Done mine by replacing the standard socket with an 8 way lucar conector - then made up the bar end to plug in. If you leave it as is - check out this link http://www.mm-4x4.com/towing-electrics-383-c.asp It's the sort of thing you'll need.

Ming was right on the button - it's the differenti-owl! Zog rules ok!

Small pipe with a clear plastic filter (looks like a petrol filter)? Pipe goes in one side and should have nothing attached to the other. As booboodag says - it should be open! If yours is blocked off then that is wrong. It is a vent pipe and it will affect the turbo operation. :eek: There are...

Hi Keirnan, I got an '06 HSE with the becker unit and while I was sorting some of the wiring around the road speed signal area, I found this set of diagrams and pics for it (from various sites). Have attached them - maybe one or two may be of use? :)

Hi, Don't disable the alarms or your insurers will call a foul. :( Had a look in Rave and the door switches all feed into the ECU behind the fuse panel to make the interior lights work. There's some clever alarming sequences controlled by the states of the door switches. Can't find any diagrams...

Not a fix but my mates got the same problem in his P38 radio. Tried all sorts of stuff to fix it and he's now looking for a replacement unit. Seems the digital tuning chip inside has decided that only odd numbers exist. Could try a specialist to investigate but sounds like a replacement if his...

I go with Ratty, sounds like injectors. Try this thread - http://www.landyzone.co.uk/lz/f9/td4-injector-leak-off-test-110765.html?highlight=injector+leak. Let us know how you get on?

You're fast Hippo - just posted up the link to your post - wow! All he needs is the RAVE link and he is all set.

Hi, LR service charges at the dealerships are always hi - labour charges! Independants cost les and |DIY saves most. Check out the post below - 4th post has schedule. http://www.landyzone.co.uk/lz/f9/freelander-service-111721.html?highlight=service+schedule Used search this forum above using...

You've checked the common problems. Have you checked the simples? Is there some slack in the throttle linkage? (should be some) Should even start and tick over with linkage off - throttle against the stop. Does the butterfly close fully? (air intake pipe off look to check) Mark the shaft and...

Hi all, Had a look on Microcat (2007/8) for some info on that temp sensor? It's listed as a 'Hose Assembly' P/No. PNH500190 - looks like it all comes assembled in one part (two bits of hose - two clips - one plastic short pipe thingy and the sensor fitted) THAT DON'T LOOK CHEAP !!!! :mad: The...

Hi Aaron, :welcome2: We have an '06 TD4 manual, it's had an EGR bypass (Ebay) for just under a year. The EGR valve cloggs up and reduces the airflow or worse sticks and messes up the whole engine response. The by-pass does not directly improve MPG but after fitting one the engine works better...

Just fitted a Synergy2 to our '06 TD4 Manual - and it's going again - panick over !! ;) Got the kit, read the instructions several times - 4 plugs and some cable ties how hard can it be? :rolleyes: Changed out the intercooler hoses for a nice shiny set of blue silicone ones while it was in...
