    Freelander 1 Anyone sorted key chip cloning??

    The other thing to watch is some key blanks don't have the recess cut all the way to the plastic holder. If cut, the key works in doors and ignition but not the fuel cap !! Ask me how i know 🤔

    Freelander 1 Turbo whistle gone suddenly (SOLVED)

    Td4 Freelander 1 turbo kicks in about 1750RPM with a whistle. If no whistle most likely problem is either a boost hose or the small vacuum hoses that feed the turbo operating vanes.

    Freelander 1 Tailgate Rubber Seal

    I think warm is good, melted rubber is not so good ! The mastic is under the seal and holds it firm to the paintwork. Going to be difficult to get solvent in there. Maybe a hypodermic and inject into the sealant.

    Freelander 1 Tailgate Rubber Seal

    I have a perfect condition tailgate seal on a scrap vehicle. I want to reuse it. Has anyone worked out how to dissolve the adhesive mastic at the top in order to get it off the metalwork without ripping the seal? Thanks.

    What have you done to your Freelander today

    Reconfigured rear lamps to put fogs and reverse down where they should be and brakes and indicators at proper height. Also now have 4 x sidelights with brake and fog to increase visibility. These fit in the brake (old fog) holders to give double filament with only 1 mm or 2 off with a craft...

    It is the fuel burning heater. Comes on at 5 degrees C. Helps warm up engine and interior heater. Pull fuse 5 in engine bay if you don't want it on.

    But someone could have been there before you. Best to check it is all assembled correctly. Photos are on here and in Haynes manual.

    Sounds like the nut has broken free from the back of the bracket. Centre punch the head and drill it out, then replace with a nut and bolt most likely would be best.

    So the plates provide protection against the tank being pierced by debris or stones etc. Plus if the prop throws something up. The subframe need to be dropped to get the new brackets in anyway so no point in cutting. Sorry to break bad news. The subframe happily lowers with bolts out then feed...
