Hi,im getting my brother to re gas my air con for me in my 2000 freelander and i need to know how much gas goes in/what pressure??can anyone help please??

i would agree,it sounds like the release arm,this was the same symptoms as mine and a heavy pedal and i fitted a new clutch but it was the release arm which was seized and luckily we my m8 noticed before we refitted box otherwise it would still be the same!i would put money on it being the...

poss an air lock?when i did mine i left running and every so often give the pipes a good sqeeze,you wont usally get the pipes hot at the top and bottom untill the thermostat has opened

thats the arm that im on about,i tried to clean mine like that but unfortunatly the seizeing and tightness it where it goes through the box not on the edge so once the gearbox is removed there is a small bolt that holds the release bearing fork onto this arm to undo then you have to keep trying...

Hi Japp,the hydraulics wont be the prob as they either work or dont i.e pedal moves up and down or just sits on the floor.Last week i changed the clutch in mine because it was tight and it was the clutch release arm!it was almost solid to move by hand so once i had the gearbox out i removed the...

Yesterday me and a m8 changed the clutch on my 2000 1.8 freelander and what a git of a job it was!!!every nut/bolt was bloody tight and 2 bolts on the exhaust snapped(grrr)!!!.Anyway i changed because of heavy pedal and clutch smell when hot,once we finally got the box out i could see the clutch...

hhhmmm,not sure if i done it right?i had front wheels chocked,in 1st gear and put torque wrench on hub nut and the wheel turned about an inch as if taking up slack then it clicked but the wheel was starting to move and i could see the vcu starting to turn but the torque wrench was on 210nm which...

gonna wait till boss has gone then check mine as got the tools here at work

Hi,ive noticed that since ive had my 2000 1.8 freelander the engine hunts a little on tickover,it runs fine when started from cold and drives fine no holding back e.t.c and only seems to do it on tickover?also ive noticed that the rear drivers side engine mount seems worn as when it hunts i can...

i HAVE CHECKED AND THE VCU AND PROBS ARE FITTED TO HIS???

When i first got my 2000 freelander i noticed that when turning on a full lock or reversing it felt a bit tight like brakes on a bit,i posted a question on here and was told thats how they are because of the viscous coupling system and most other peoples like it so never thought much more about...

Hi,has anyone any ideas about fitting a sunroof in my 5 door freelander?ive contacted 2 companies local to me and 1 said they could fit a pop-up type(which is what i want)and the other said that he could not fit pop up type because of side impact bars in roof and not allowed to cut them? so...

Hi,me again,i keep seeing posts about people who have removed the props and run in front wheel drive and see loads for sale like this and also read a post saying that the freelander club reccomends it???? Just wondering how many of you have done this?what are the benefits?i dont really really...

hi,im new to freelanders and just want some advice as when on full lock and going foward or reversing slowly it feels a bit tight like brakes on,im sure i asked this before and was told its normal because of 4x4 vcu set-up,i did the tipp-ex test and seemed fine and all drives fine but just...

Hi peeps,im thinking about putting a k&n panel filter on my 1.8 petrol 2000 model and was wondering what your views are?it needs a new filter and had k&n,s before so thought i would fit one,i cant quite afford a full induction kit so going for panel instead,are there any advantages/problems?i...

I thought about selling my 2000 1.8 5 door which ive only had for about a month and is really nice condition and drive but i really want a 3 door to remove top which is why i sold my disco for bit of fun and better mpg.I thought sod it i will keep mine but just cant help looking at 3 doors for...

Just realised my aircon isnt kicking in,when i press the aircon switch the switch iluminates so i thought it just needed a recharge as not cold,however when i tried my m8s aircon today i noticed that when i pressed his aircon switch you could here the aircon click and the revs fluttered as my...

tyres seem fine,i drove it today on a 2 hour journey between 75-85 mph and all was smooth?it only seems to be when accelerating up through 1st,2nd and 3rd? the clutch is on its way out as stiff pedal/gearchange and clutch judder after changing gear,i wonder if that has any thing to do with it??

Hi again,when i pull away it feels like the front wheels have a wobble?and when braking from 55ishmph i get vibrations exactly what feels like warped brake disc judder?i know the clutch pressure plate is worn and i get judder when changing gear but i am wondering if that could cause the...

Hi all,after much thinking ive decided to keep my 5 door now instead of selling for a 3 door as i do think its a good one so as everyone says "why change". Ive already done a oil and filter change and just bought some oil for the rear diff,ird and some mtf94 for the gearbox. Im going to change...
