    Freelander 1 Automatic TD4 problems

    P0733 gear ratio is usually a spurious fault code caused by the box going into limp mode. As said, unplug the 2 barrel connectors and re-seat them. Chances are this is a wiring fault. That said, if they didn't unplug the battery when they took the solenoid pack out, they could have damaged the...

    Best cheap tyres

    That's low for 18's, so I couldn't say. I've used Nexen and Khumo on the Jeep that's got 18" wheels, but they're about £125 per corner Inc fitting. I've currently got Zeta's on the Freelander which are very good for the price, but that's 16". I've just noticed your in Sheffield, just down the...

    Freelander 1 ANYONE KNOW ABOUT RADIO SOCKETS ON REAR OF RADIO/CASSETTE IN A MK 1 FRRELANDER ?

    Can't find a wiring diagram anywhere, but you can buy a replacement socket unit for around £25. But it's normally the cd unit has died. Mike

    Left hand front, vehicles with air bags. Doesn't state wether 3 or 5 door, but it looks like a 5 door part, probably:confused: Mike

    Freelander 1 Jatco auto gearbox fault

    Then I would check it has the correct fluid level and fluid type. Check the barrel connectors at the front of the engine and other than the replacement solenoid being duff you could try a bottle of Lucas oil stop slip or get the clutch pack changed. A bottle of additive would be cheaper and my...

    Freelander 1 Jatco auto gearbox fault

    Does it change gear if you manually change it? If it does, then it's electrical, TCM or CanBus related. Mike

    Freelander 1 2001 TD4 engine management fault reset anyone?

    Just seen this. Always better to ask question the main Freelander forum. An Icarsoft 930 or LR2 can reset the light. My 2002 has the same system and this works fine. Or take the binnacle out and remove the bulb or stick a bit of tape over it for the mot. Mike

    Freelander TD4 power loss

    Under the engine next to the turbo, small plastic part with 3 hoses going to it. Take the undertray off to gain access. Mike

    Freelander TD4 power loss

    No you can't, MAP(manifold absolute pressure) if you unplug that the turbo won't know whats going on. In theory it will go to a default setting, but that won't help. Mike

    Two Bally rally THREE AMIGOS in a Freaklander

    TD4 auto owned for 14 years. Breakdowns = well none really, it's never stopped even when a bits given up. Can't fault it. Do an oil and filter change, do the autobox fluid as well, it's not that difficult. Pop a new air filter in and give it some stick. Enjoy. Mike

    Freelander 1 intermitant loss of power

    If you turbo hoses are soft, they probably need replacing, they should be fairly rigid. If they expand due to being soft then your turbo isn't working efficiently. This makes your engine work overly hard. Sounds like you could do with a big dose of injector cleaner to. Clean your MAF sensor...

    What have you done to your Freelander today

    Drove it to the caravan storage. Polished the caravan, then went snow blind with the glare from the sun reflecting back:oops: Mike

    Freelander 1 Fuel pump

    OEM specification pumps are ok and should last a few years. That said pierburgh and genuine LR will last 8 - 10 years. You pays your money! Mike

    I hope it is that simple. At least you have backup plans if required. Mike

    Smelly TD4 motor

    Yup, take the EGR off and clean it, do the manifold at the same time if possible. Check the vacuum hose to the EGR as well. Mike
