    VVC Conversion questions- Please be nice

    Does anyone have, or know where I can get the wiring diagram so I can decipher the loom?

    VVC Conversion questions- Please be nice

    Aren't they always :D And the fact that the vehicles are 10 miles apart doesn't help. Can't get them together either. How easy is it to refit the propshaft? Might see if the missus will let me source one

    VVC Conversion questions- Please be nice

    Yeah, the mems 2 can be unlocked to run without the 5as immobilizer. So far for the conversion were up to- 1.8k vvc 143 engine from a mems 2 Rover and loom. Retain freelander fuel rail. Retain freelander pg1 gearbox with IRD. Mems 2 ECU unlocked to run without immobilizer. (will fit...

    VVC Conversion questions- Please be nice

    I was thinking whether this that would be an idea In all honestly. 1998-2000 FREELANDER 1.8 K SERIES ECU IMMOBILIZER CENTRAL FOB SET MKC104394 | eBay Definitely not the same as the rover unit

    I didn't realise the freelander didn't use a 5as like the rivers, would mean the vvc ecu will need deciding. Another thing that has popped up, the fuel rail.... The rovers run a return pipe from the fuel rail and the freelanders don't I believe. Is that right? Cheers again.

    As for the final drive, will the Derv one be worth fitting? The gearbox on at the minute was one the missus bought reconditioned as her brother managed to put a whole is the side of the last week. The rover 75 & MG ZT used the standard 1.8k as well and were made whilst in BMW ownership, which...

    Cheers for that, i've just spotted its a lot of your posts i've been reading on past threads about freelander PG1's and VVC conversions. Sorry if it seems a bit repetitive. I'll have to agree though, from what you've explained, keeping the Freelander box seems to be the best bet as long as...

    Cheers, It's currently sat on a relatives farm and they aren't happy its still there. It'll get scrapped soon if its not moved so rather than fitting the same engine again, then tinkering with it (because thats what i always end up doing), i might as well have a go at fitting another 1.8 that...

    Are you meaning the loom for the body? Do you know what will need adapting? Is this due to the freelander box using 4WD?

    VVC Conversion questions- Please be nice

    The 200 vi looks like this- Her family love Land Rovers and have owned many 90's Range Rovers, Freelanders & Defenders and I love tinkering with Rover/MG's. The missus has an attachment to this particular Freelander, the engine is on 150k and a none starter, It will get scrapped if nothing...

    VVC Conversion questions- Please be nice

    I have owned many a Rover over the last 10 years but the Missus has a 1.8 Freelander which is a none starter and is FWD now due to a snapped propshaft, this makes the car an ideal project. I also have a track ready Rover 200 Vi with the 143 VVC engine, but i have no time to track it making...

    Hi all, been on mg-rover & Rovertech for a few years now but the missus has a 1.8 K series Freelander she's letting me have a play with so i thought i'd jump on here for guidance. Cheers, Dave.
