    TD4 not for starting!

    In fact, that won't work. It's a 2003 car, fuel pump is under wheel arch next to recently replaced fuel filter, and it is working, I can hear it! Must take a look at injectors now, ruled out everything else. If one of these has a leak, is that enough to prevent it starting? Are they easy to...

    Like the sound of that, it'll deffo be getting hit with something soon!

    TD4 not for starting!

    Battery fully charged overnight, still not starting this morning. It ALMOST started, but just missing the final kick. Looks like I'll have to check for leaky injectors at the weekend.

    TD4 not for starting!

    Been doing a bit of work on my 2003 TD4 recently. Replaced the air filter, oil filter and oil, fuel filtet(under rear wheel arch) and crankcase breather filter. The car had been lying unused for around 4 weeks prior to this, and the battery was flat. Jumped it from my other car, took it 25...

    What have you done to your Freelander today

    Did the clutch bleeding operation! Quite a bit smoother but biting point still at the top of the pedal, better start saving the pennies for a new one soon!

    Wheel Removal Stuck!

    They can be very stiff, lots of wiggling required and maybe a rubber mallet on the back of the tyre, worked for me last week, anyone would think the alloys weren't meant for the motor in the first place!

    What have you done to your Freelander today

    Yes, they're the same make and size as the rear ones, but the rears were new when I bought it, only done 5000 miles since, so they're all much of a muchness!

    What have you done to your Freelander today

    I've had my Freelander for six months now, was in decent nick when I got it, but have made some improvements! First off, replaced all interior mats, and new reg plates. Added front light guards,then replaced back box, and added wing style roof rails. Replaced the tatty green Freelander badge...

    Speakers what again

    You're in luck, I just fitted speakers this very morning! The main problem is that no speaker is going to line up with the oddly spaced holes of the standard speaker. I looked at every option, and decided to mount my new pioneer speakers directly onto the door card instead of the door frame. I...

    Cup holder!

    I think it's the hens teeth rarity of these that's pushing the price up, it had obviously been lying in its box on a shelf since the nineties, I had to clean up the rubber shaped piece that joins it to the instrument binnacle when fitting it. Took me ages to find a green FL with black...

    Cup holder!

    Me too! I took ages to get it shaped into the dials, and have since trimmed it back because it kept coming off, shame because it looked great!

    Cup holder!

    Carbon fibre was tricky, watched a YouTube video then stole the wife's hairdryer, but turned out ok in the end! Only did this one bit, didn't want to go overboard!

    TD4 towing

    What's wrong with the trailer board? Pretty sure I checked the regs with regard to position and height???

    No, taking outboard off is not possible!

    TD4 towing

    Thanks for the replies, I will check the weight with the scales! Like I said, the boat isn't that heavy, and is not loaded with camping gear etc, that's all in the Freelander. Heaviest thing on the boat is the outboard! Was probably just a slippy section of wet road gave me a wee scare, 99 of...
