Why you getting all hot and bothered? I know there are plenty of lifted FL2s about - I never said there wasn’t, did I? And some will see no difference. And some will eat up other components quicker and end up replacing driveshafts and the like...

No, because I’ve never done it. But a simple google search will tell you a lift kit, with no further modifications, will stress other parts. Assume you have proof it doesn’t?

Stock tyres; Kind of answered that in post #2 on your thread here; https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/freelander-2-max-height.399716/#post-5868366 If you look on YouTube at Powerful UK, they fit a lift kit to an F2 and show you the...

SDD is the Land Rover system. It stands for Symptom Driven Diagnostics, and it requires a laptop plus a lead. I think it covers vehicles from 2006 onwards, and will do everything you want it to, if it can be done. That said, it’s not the easiest...

It was a steal at the price, unfortunately I couldn't stretch any further as we were desperate 🙄 I was searching for weeks, then found my GS fairly local and managed to get them to drop it even more so had to go with that, I was made redundant...

I've loosened the link arm bolts both came out without issue. Thank you for your help.

Do you have any codes? Daft question - got plenty of fuel? (over half a tank, to rule out the pump in the tank)

You like the HSE head and sat nav? And you wanted auto lights and rain sensing wipers. But you bought a GS…? 😁

…lots. Planning on taking it for a trip to North Wales soon, so splashing out a bit. Have already mentioned the roof rails last week. LR roof bars should be here in next few days too, to go on top. Today I fitted an aftermarket centre front...

Is it definitely the rack, or the supply pipes that rust away and leak.

Wassup - have you broke it?

Have you dislodged or split a boost pipe when doing the job?

You defo need a new mechanic. If possible, take someone who is mechanically-minded with you when you go back. Fuses missing are a massive tell-tale…

If the engine light has lit once, there should be a code stored to read. This will direct you better than changing parts randomly.

A word of warning. Don't be tempted to by those cheap pumps from Ebay, as they're garbage. Only fit genuine or OE pumps and filters.

Assumed you’d already tried the normal regen route as your first post mentioned doing 50-60 for an hour, which should have forced it.

LR diagnostics can force a regen, but I thought the car would display a ‘DPF full’ message, if that was the issue(?)

Lack of power and smoke could be a loose/split boost pipe. Other things to check besides the filter and LP pump are the O rings on the high pressure pump. These wear over time also. Cheap repair kits online. If you have decent diagnostics you...

Possibly - I’ll look next time I plug LR SDD laptop in to it. If it works and I can configure, I’m happy to come over @GrumpyGel and do yours, but you’ll have to cover expenses 😵‍💫🤪
