    TD4 Fitting cruise control

    Fitting CC should work straight out of the box, I don't know if there is some issue using the rover control unit (black box) I struggled to find the steering wheel controls and the land rover control unit (white box) so I purchased them from American ebay, I plugged them all in and hey presto it...

    Threading a cable through clock hole to engine compartment

    A fiddly job to say the least but worth it to have temp sensor.

    Threading a cable through clock hole to engine compartment

    I managed to run a cable from roughly that location along the left hand side of the dash and into the door for a temperature sensor mounted under the passengers wing mirror.

    Losing air pressure on TD4

    I seem to be having the same problem, my front pair loose about 5 psi over two weeks and the spare looses pressure too, I was considering tyre slime as a fix???

    Drivers seat foam

    I rebuilt mine using this in a criss cross fashion to build it up. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Handy-5-metre-length-of-Armaflex-Pipe-Self-Adhesive-Insulation-Tape-50mm-wide-3m-/262912295722?epid=711171734&hash=item3d36cb432a:g:h~IAAOSwTM5Y2R8D I didn't even remove the cover completely to do so...

    What have you done to your Freelander today

    Is your head unit aftermarket? I had problems earlier in the year with radio reception, it would only seem to find one station, when I changed the unit for a better aftermarket unit (pioneer double din) the problem went away.

    Freelander 1 Hands-Free Phone

    I'm only aware of head units tethering one phone at time but as long as it has Bluetooth surely Siri will dial contacts from your phone book along with all its other features, read texts, mail and whats app etc.

    Passenger heated seat not working.

    Mine had become disconnected under the seat, look for a little white connector and cable that runs to the outer edge of the seat once plugged back together hey presto it worked.

    What have you done to your Freelander today

    I love them seats, I tried to find one for sale locally at the time but couldn't, I did find one miles away which was also a black car.

    Its the way they are, it worried me when I first got mine too.

    Seat height adjustment

    It's not a straight cut chopping a piece out of the seat base, I have one in bits at the moment. My initial thoughts are that you can only take about an inch and a half out of the base.
