Thanks very much for all your advice guys. Some of it is outwith my skillset but I'll rope in my mate for assistance. I'll update when I've hopefully solved the issue. Again, thanks very much.

actd4Member Morning all, Could I have some advice please? I'm suspecting/hoping my issue is due to the glow plugs needing replaced on my Freelander 1 TD4 and nothing more serious.. I'm having trouble when starting which is followed by a large plooms of smoke. My way around it is to turn the key...

Thanks very much Bounty. The smoke does disperse once I've driven for five or ten minutes. I did use the Redex treatment but no difference. I'll look into your suggestions. Thanks.

Evening Nodge.. success!! I removed the rear light unit and there it was in that cavity. A small figure 8 shaped piece of metal about 2 inches long and two threaded holes. All back together now. Thanks very much for your help.

Strange it falling off. I didn't hear anything at the time. Okay I'll have another look into the cavity. I was looking for bolt fixings before so I could've missed it. Thanks again and I'll let you know if I find it. Cheers

Hi Nodge thanks for getting in touch.. you reckon it's a small plate with threaded holes? I've already had a reach down the space but couldn't find anything. I thought it had maybe dropped right down and out of sight and reach. Do you think this plate will be a part I can buy?

Looking for help please. I have a Freelander 1 which has a Roof Bar attached. After removing it and attempting to re-fit it, I realised a couple of fixings were missing. The bolts are part number CYP100630 which I have. I need the threaded fixings which are rawlplug type items which fit into...

Thanks for all your advice guys. I'll get to work checking it all. I'll get back when I have the answer. Cheers.

Hello, I have a 54 plate TD4 Sport. I've noticed a high pitched whining noise from the engine when accelerating. It's only under load and not when stationary if I rev the engine. I've recently renewed the Intercooler hoses which due to the split in hoses, was causing a hissing sound. That's...

Yes I noticed them after I'd fitted the new ones which were ones I could get my hands on at short notice. Cheers

Thanks guys. It was a small split at the back of the third hose, smallest one I didn't replace.

Thanks very much. The new hoses are secure. Any suggestions where another leak could come from? Intercooler partially blocked or leaking?.. Sounds a bit technical for me.. How would I check for that?

Hello, can anyone please help re my Freelander Sport 54 plate? I had a problem with a hissing sound from the engine and black smoke from exhaust when accelerating and discovered a split in one of the intercooler hoses. I replaced the two hoses and the problem seem to be solved. However the...

Well the leads just plug into each other with no cutting required, so I don't understand where the problem is..

Can anyone assist Please? I've fitted a Bury cc9060 Handsfree phone kit to my Freelander TD4 Sport 2004. All working fine except no sound through speakers!! I used a t harness SOT 085 to convert the wiring to iso. It's the factory fitted Visteon cd radio. Thanks in advance... Alex

*Handsfree Kit HELP please? Gents and ladies.. I've recently bought an 04 plate Freelander TD4 Sport facelift model and enjoying the experience very much! However I fitted my Bury CC 9060 Bluetooth handsfree kit. The first hurdle was the wiring connections at the rear of the radio which...
