Thank you as always lads for the help I think I am going to get a breaker bar and a 22mm deep socket ,the reason all this came about was because I was changing the wheels on my daughters 206 after sorting out a drop link for her and I snapped the tyre wrench or what ever you call it, trying to...

Thinking of buying one of these after the fun and games I have had with my daughters 206 over the weekend :mad:Any way amongst others I did find this https://www.eurocarparts.com/ecp/p/car-accessories/car-accessories-products/emergency-and-breakdown/wheel-wrenches/?553991550&0&cc5_72 It comes in...

Tell me about it:oops:

Sorry should have said 2006 facelift td4

Has anyone got a link/number for one of these bushes ? I have a feeling mine is in need of replacement

I changed all my hoses in mine because they were soft and manky but what I did do was use a bit of the old hose and two tie wraps and wrapped it round the hose were the bottom screw is in your picture because for me at least I noticed that screw had a habit of rubbing against the hose and...

Can i book it in for a service:p

https://www.jgs4x4.co.uk/freelander/freelander-1/axles-transmission/ On my sons the plate that held the cylinder was rusted and that had to be changed as well Just make sure you get one from a good manufacture ,the link I posted is to give you a rough idea of how much they cost

I second that, don`t ask its a long story :oops:but welcome to the club they are a friendly bunch on here and don`t bite much.... unlike my hippo:mad::D

Thank you irish i have not tried that i will see how mine are later,to be honest with you the more i think about it the more i think if my diff was that bad to vibrate and clunk it would not be driveable

I take it the only way to check it is to unbolt the big rubber and check to see how floppy/lose it is ?

Had a look at the rear diff mounts and apart from a little movement which i assume is normal everything seems fine , i jacked up the left hand side front checked everything and it all seems ok no rips broken springs ect . Then tried to move the wheel left and right and up and down nothing solid...

Looks like i am going to be the first oap freelander boy racer then:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

Sorry to hijack this a little but two things one, will these fit the back speakers ok? and two,are these a lot better than the standard ? I ask this because I changed my head unit with am alpine and to my ears the standard ones sound pretty decent . I was thinking of just using sound deadening...

A quick update I took her out for a spin and there didn't seem to be to much vibration ,I had it on full lock and no noise or vibration at all . However when I went round a sharp right, the left hand side front suspension did make a clunking/ knocking noise ?? strange because I could have sworn...

Thank you GG I had the running lumpy prob when I first had it and sorted that with the wiring kit you can get for the td4 , I hope and don't think its that in fact (and I bet I regret saying this) after a good run it does not miss at about 2500 rpm any more in neutral like a lot of these engines...

Thank you for that I would just add he checked the u/js on the prop and they are fine I have read they also suffer from the lower engine tie bar bush going soft, I wonder if it could be something to do with that?

Sorry these are winter tyres and if anything they are smoother than the 16" ones I had on before ,I should have named this thread do rear diffs vibrate:rolleyes: Even before I changed the tyres I had the rumble to some degree

I have the same size and make all round and I check that they are the same psi each week (Dunlop 225/55/17)

Got my hippo back from having new oil in the ird,gearbox and rear diff and the vcu mounts replaced ,I still have a "rumble" through the pedals ,steering wheel and the gear leaver wobbles a little(I was hoping this was because of the rubber mounts) .Before I had the mounts replaced on full lock...
