    A new Freelander is coming, apparently.

    Plan is for it to be built at the current JLR factory in Changshu China I believe. No plans for sale in Europe. Yet ...

    Discovery 1 Head Lights flicker when the car gets wet

    Just switches and a fuse board ? O' for the good old days. 😁 My Series has but two fuses. Apart from the heater plugs, not even a relay !

    Discovery 1 Head Lights flicker when the car gets wet

    Don't leave me/us hanging. How are the circuits controlled ?

    Could water be getting into the BCM module ?

    I would look for an earth. 🤔

    Disco 2 Won't start and GlowPlug Relay Drive Open Load fault code

    Agree with Sierra, those DTC's don't really mean anything. Have a good look around starter, just beware of live wires ! Can't recall the part name but I had the ignition barrel fail on mine which resulted in non start, but this was a gradual fail. Just thought, the starter solenoid is a fairly...

    MAF sensor issue

    My favourite saying, start where it stopped. Check all connections and hoses around the MAFF and air intake are secure. Can you hear the pump when you first turn ignition on and do you of course have diesel in tank ?

    Long shot but…..

    Well, at least you know.

    Disco 2 Injector O rings

    That's a valid point. If you're fitting cheap parts you want to be paying cheap prices.

    Disco 2 Injector O rings

    I fitted the black 'Britpart' ones without issue.

    Long shot but…..

    Try a number plate sale company. Out of curiosity I enquired how much it would be to buy my own number. One company replied to say it was on their data base as 'For Sale'. It wasn't me so possibly a previous owner ?

    New alternator not charging!?!

    I was feeling quite smug there until you got to the clutch. 30 or 40 years ago, perhaps ? With regard to Halfords, my Wife paid £25 to have them change the battery on her late model Zafira, money well spent in my opinion.

    New alternator not charging!?!

    What stood out for me here is that Halfords wanted £30 Quid to fit a Series battery ! Two spanners, job done ?

    Serious Battery drain

    So did Halfords check the amount of charge or the capacity ? When I have used Halfords in the past, they did both.

    Cable Identification - Seats

    All I can tell you is the orange connector is for the Airbag.

    Serious Battery drain

    So 12.2 is a bit low for a static battery. Has the Hazard light illumination gone out ? If this has not gone out then the car is still awake.

    Serious Battery drain

    First stop, have you checked the battery drain since you solved the bonnet issue ? Now, gotta be honest, I know the principle of parasitic draw. You place your multi meter across the battery post and disconnected lead and read milliamps. Pull relays one at a time and watch for reading to drop...

    Need electrical help

    Do you have tow bar electrics ? My RHR indicator failed to work off the switch, despite having ground and feed. Going through the wiring I found an unused towbar loom. Once disconnected - Voila'. Don't ask me why.

    Serious Battery drain

    Regarding the bonnet, it appears to be locking properly. I haven’t seen the bonnet warning message for several weeks now, @Shedload. One question: is it safe to insert a paperclip into the bonnet sensor switch and lock the car with the bonnet open in order to disconnect the battery? Apologies if...
