    which engine flush for TD4

    Thanks, I appreciate the TD4 engine is probably the strongest part of this 4x4 but I still aim to change the oil regularly. I have just got the motor but and I have already changed the oil filter and oil, the air filter, crankcase breather, AFM, fuel pump, fuel filter and the vcu. I love...

    which engine flush for TD4

    Does it really matter what flush you use, I suppose getting the oil right is the main concern. Having said that, I was going to use some Slick50 flush and noted it states for petrol engines or light duty diesel engines. Would the TD4 be classed as a light duty diesel engine....My guess is...

    2005 TD4 Fuel pump

    2005 TD4 Fuel pump

    How do you clean inlet manifold

    Hi :) First post. Just got a Freelander 3dr Freestyle 2005 TD4. Happy with it so far but I am prepared for problems after spending a couple of weeks reading this excellent and informative site. I have so far got rid of the propshaft so it is 2 wheel drive at the moment but will probably have...
