    Strange thing happened today...

    A short trip to the shops (2 miles) I noticed both fans came on. The electric ones in front of the rad. The temp gauge read nothing (cold, like just turned on) but I had done a few miles by now. Lifted the bonnet and the engine didn't feel any hotter than usual. Came out the shops, started...

I followed this video, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NIwAXHhLe iE And ordered a Blanking Plate from Ebay, Parked the front wheels up on a high kerb, hand break on and 90mins later took it for a test drive round the block. WOW, 1st thing I...

    Help with my 1st Freelander please

    If by propshaft you mean the long thing that runs from the front axel to the rear axel, then yes. Mechanically minded? I'm not afraid to do things if there's a guide and it's not too tricky. Are there any step by step guides? Also, if it's removed what's performance like? It's only a...

    Help with my 1st Freelander please

    The rumbling sound is deep, imagine drumming your fingers fast on a large wooden table. It appears to be coming from the area of the rear axel, centre. It doesn't sound local to one side or one wheel and if it only happens when turning, I'm assuming it's happening when one wheel is turning at...

    Help with my 1st Freelander please

    I've done a bit of googling but can't find exactly a fix.. Lately when turning left or right I hear (and feel) a rumble when turning. It feels like its coming from the rear axel. Just Coasting round a corner is ok, but when accelerating round a corner I get the rumbling. Roundabouts are ok...

    Pm sent Longdog.... You guys have made my night, Today I tried an mp3 cd in the head unit, knowing it may not work. It did display something like 'cd rom' on the LCD and a timer counting up. But no sound. This time tomorrow I'll have Blutooth hands free phone, music from my phone and DVD...

    Thanks Freelander and thanks DuncanS Yes I'll store the old one, I've got the code in the book here just incase. Looks like standard stereo key removal holes aswell. I can't be that lucky right? Iso is iso right... The plugs should fit then, but no switching wires round nothing?

    Googling I've found one on eBay the same head unit as in mine... And if I'm not mistaken the back picture looks like standard iOS connectors, could I be that lucky? 02 03 Land Rover Freelander Radio CD | eBay

    Do you have the same stereo?

    What Freelander do I have?

    Yes I think so, but without the nice spotlights and roofbars. ;) Also, The back of my roof looks like it can clip off, it's not fabric, looks like it comes off in one go, and the back window is electric. My sunroof isn't electric, it's two glass panels that just tilt up with a little clip thing.

    What Freelander do I have?

    From what I can tell from browsing the forum, and I could be way off.. LoL I think it's a pre facelift. But is that what's referred to as a Freelander 1 here? Is there more to narrow it down further? On the subject of the stereo, I've seen there's freelancers with a BMW made stereo, double din...
