It’s a TD4 ‘05 with 210k km. VCU was checked when I bought it and confirmed in good condition, but we’re doing a test week this week to Slovenia and come up with a list of things to consider on top of what the experts here come up with ;) For now, this is what Larry looks like.

Hey everyone, I recently bought a Freelander (Larry), with the main purpose of serving as camping car (besides a fridge, still some modifications to do to call it a camper). The main trip planned for next year is a drive to Senegal & Gambia, and back (to The Netherlands). Quite the journey that...

Quick update. Suspension needs to be replaced (which I knew). The rubber cap is attached with some new grease. The sound is still there, but starting to doubt whether it’s suspension related (nothing strange to be found, perhaps worn out suspension ) or whether it’s coming from the middle. IRD...

Thanks guy. This was rather easy!

This might be the issue I would say?

The drop links seem fine to me? Although just checking and wondering, if the car is in neutral and I move it by hand just half a meter, it’s normal for the VCU to turn right? Also checked the steering joints but no play on there. I do notice however that the car leans in quite far in...

Thanks gents. Will give that a check tomorrow. Would be best then to replace the full anti roll bars myself right?

Hi folks, Need some help on some trouble shooting, or the areas I can check myself before I drive my Freelander to the dealer. There is a rattling noise coming from the front right of my car. The noise is not very consistent, but usually it occurs when I drive around 30 - 50 km/h. I believe it...

Yep, got that one! Just wondering if you or anyone would know where the red battery cable would enter the car, so I can get the cable to the boot?

Hi all, I am slowly turning my Freelander 1 into our main camping vehicle, as we have some plans to go to Africa next year. Rooftop tent is already fixed, but want to get started with the electricity now, to get the some cold beers when the engine is off :) I am installing a 104Ah deep cycle...

I recently retro fitted a unit into my FL, it was just a 70 euro AliExpress thingy but it does the trick. I mainly use it for Carplay, I have to admit that the UI is a bit so so when also using the radio or navigation on the screen itself. Still need to work the USB plug away clearly ;-)

Do you have any pictures of the end result? Looks kinda neat but I am considering something similar for my Freelander 1 so would be good inspiration!

I am picking up a standard frame today and still need to make something on top of it. Initially I wanted to build something fully from scratch (https://framecomplete.com/). But guess now I’ll just be building a loose rack for on top :-)

Can't open it unfortunately.. You have my attention though ;-)

hi all, I am looking for a roof rack for my 3drs freelander, but so far without any luck. Now I am considering of building something myself (the frame that you attach to the back of the car and on top), as I found some options to buy alloy profiles and kind of assemble it yourself. Benefits...

Hi there! Decided to create an account here, as myself and my gf recently bought a Freelander TD4 and we are planning a trip to Senegal next year april. Both living in Utrecht, the Netherlands, and planning to do a 3 month trip from here to Senegal and back. A lot of prepping still needed...
