When I bought my 2004 TD4 facelift the aircon did not work, everything was checked, gas, compressor, sensors and everything looked perfect, then after realising that the canbus control for the aircon is part of the instrument cluster, we swapped out the instrument cluster and hay presto, aircon...

Thanks td4van for the info, makes sense now, I know the local dealer will have a t4, are t4's available to the general public to buy, or is there alternatives?

Sorry should of mentioned its a td4, and I'm not very local, located in South Africa

Hi Everyone, I'm having a problem with the aircon on my 2004 freelander 1, the aircon is not kicking in when switched on. I've had it at my local indy who has checked, re-gassed and re-checked, now he tells me that I need a new instrument cluster (YAC501150PMA) as the sensor which detects the...

I've just been through the erratic idle issue saga, mine would hunt whilst idling practilally stalling every time the revs dropped, then shoot up again, currently I have it down to the airflow meter connection being bad, I think it was working loose so I have put cable ties around it to secure...

Check your alternator, I just had a similar issue with not starting after driving some distance then stopping, on trying to restart all ignition lights come on but no starter, after leaving for an hour suddenly it started. This happened again and the both times it happened had been during heavy...

Hi all, looking to buy a new MAF, after searching online I see prices varying from £60-200, even over a grand for some, are the cheap ones any good? Can anyone who's bought one recently recomend a decent deal? Ta

Quick update - Decided to remove and strip and clean MAF for myself, put it all back together and problem seems to be solved for now! Thanks for all the advice

Replaced the stepper motor, it still seems to idle high for a few seconds when I come to a complete stop, but then will hold a pretty constant 800 ish rpm. Now though intermittentley it will start to surge at standstill, the revs will surge between 0-800rpm, sometimes it will cut out but mostly...

I had just set off from a standstill so maybe doing 10-15 mph, oil level should be fine cause its just been serviced, anyway its been towed back to where I bought it from cause it still has a warantee for next few months, I'll let you know what is found

Driving home yesterday and all of a sudden after turning a corner at some traffic lights my 3.9v8 1995 disco felt like it wasn't running on all cylinders and had lost power. As I was only about 2 miles from home I decided to crawl home, as I got near to my driveway a squealing noise started like...

@ classic Kev, it blows the watery soot when warm, will check it when its cold, I drive approx 10 miles to work, half on motorway so it does get a decent run, I'll have a look in the V8 section at the stepper motor @ mrnice, no I don't have LPG

When I removed it it looked a bit sooty on the tip, not sure exactly how this sensor works? Drove to work this morning in a heavy downpour, cleaning it didn't make any difference, it seemed to be worse, a few times it went the opposite way and revs dropped right down to zero, then jumped back up...

I unpluged it, unscrewed it (32mm socket), sprayed it with carb cleaner then refitted, don't have time to test it right now, but i'll let you know tomorrow how it runs

When I come to a standstill in my Disco 1 3.9V8 and dip the clutch, it idles at 1500 to 2000 rpm, then after about 5-10 seconds it drops down to normal 800 rpm, has anybody experienced this and maybe have a fix? Any info greatly appreciated!
