    MOT fail? - Sill damage

    I am not saying im right or wrong but maybe a consideration and maybe someone with more knowledge would be able to answer this better, as it is a monocoque (Spelling) design would the sill not be structual to the car? Or is the sill part just to hide the main structure behind it (for looks and...

    where can i get a non glass sunroof?

    If its the sunroof that is split into two (manual oppening) like I have on my 3 door 2004, then they are very easy to remove and replace, if it is an electric one I have no experience but suspect from the comment from 'Mark 2' then it could be difficult to replace. Maybe try ebay or possibly a...

    Freelander Design faults, LETS HAVE EM..

    The thing that bugs me about the design is the side window rubbers (the bit at the bottom of the windows), they collect all of the dirt and then when the window goes up or down it scratches the hell out of the glass. Could have easily been changed for different window seals but too late now!!

    Leather seats

    Just a quick thought, you would lose the ability to get in the back as the 5 door's dont move forward like the 3 door seats do. Moving on the runners all the time would be annoying.

    Do you sleep in your Landy?

    Hi, I think a FL 1 would be reasonably comfy, if you folded the rear seats forward, there are only two small bars that would be annoying, but with a folded blanket (or similar) over them I think it would be fine. Granted not as much space as a 110 but would be good enough.

    Loss of power below 2000rpm

    When I got mine from Euro Car Parts and then the main dealer fitted a new one they were very good and gave me full refund, which was good. Before you buy id unplug the Maf and drive it. If it runs loads better then, it may be worth the risk of buying a new MAF. Im not saying buy one or...

    Loss of power below 2000rpm

    Congratulations! The only reason mine was picked up was because everything else had been checked and it was one of the last options. With a live data scanner like the one I have shown above in the pictures the MAF reading can be seen whilst running. The ideal values are shown in the other...

    Loss of power below 2000rpm

    I didn't try it with the MAF disconnected would have been nice to have free reign with the diagnostic machine, but didnt think to try it with it disconnected at the time. Its a weird fault, as if the values are the wrong way round or something, could be a default value that it is recieving...

    Loss of power below 2000rpm

    Just looked at the data on chasers post on the first page of this thread and it looks like the airflow mg/stroke is approx 100 more than mine when idling, does this suggest anything to anyone? think I am going to have to wait until Monday to see if the problem is fixed.

    Loss of power below 2000rpm

    Hi, Just an update for you, mine has been at the specialists for a few days now and they have come to the conclusion that the ECU needs replacing. whilst plugged into a diagnostic system it runs badly with a low maf reading typicaly not reading above 400 when reving it, with a strong smell of...

    Loss of power below 2000rpm

    Ok, Boost solenoid is under the car, no you cant go through the wheel arch (maybe possible but why bother to remove loads of stuff when you can reach it easier from under the car). Step by step. (Takes about 10mins max) Need a small socket set, think the nuts are 8mm (if i remember...

    Loss of power below 2000rpm

    Update, Got the car back now, they replaced the Maf with a genuine one and it has improved, but still not running correctly. It is still lacking power, when i pull away the first 1/4 of accel pedal travel has an effect but after this it doesn't seam to have much affect until 2000 when the turbo...
