    What have you done to your Freelander today

    How can it do less rpm at a set speed because of a tuning box?? Anyway that aside I've been in to work to investigate a weird transmission related noise, found a knackered prop uj, replaced that. Noise is still there but less noticeable now, suspect inner cv joints.

    LAND ROVER FREELANDER 1.8 THERMOSTAT UPGRADE KIT | eBay Where the thermostat is placed originally it makes the head vulnerable to constant thermal shocks, this prevents that from happening

    I"m coming back

    I've had 1.8 which is now my dads, it had the head gasket done and the thermostat conversion, if you understand why the gaskets fail so much you will know that thermostat conversion cures it. The k series is a strong engine when the thermostats in the right place, my dad tows his caravan and has...

    Another strange noise

    I have had a very similar thing, I had a very slight bit of play in my prop uj's, replaced them and the noise stopped. When I stripped them down they were totally knackered but only had the smallest amount of play when I checked them. They might be worth a look.

    Fitted a ronbox to my L series

    Just a quick post to say that I've fitted a ronbox to my L series, I had adjusted the fuel pump to improve fuel economy which worked beautifully. The problem came when I towed my caravan, we took it through France, Italy, Switzerland and Germany. It towed it ok but there was a lack of torque...

    Different 3 amigos fault!!

    Well Ive fixed the dreaded 3 amigos!! Whilst bleeding the new ABS unit I operated the pump using the relay as a switch to bleed the pump etc. Except the relay didnt work! I had previously checked the relay and all was well. So I have changed the relay and (possibly for nothing!) the ABS unit and...

    Different 3 amigos fault!!

    Well Ive checked the earth points and cleaned them up still no joy, I did think that there was an earth point behind the drivers kick panel but I couldnt find one. Ive bridged the relay to see if the motor works and it does. Any other ideas before I buy an ABS unit?

    The next instalment:- Ive fitted a replacement ecu, ignition on, TC light goes out, ABS on as normal and amber HDC still on, move away ABS goes out, HDC still on.

    Doh!!! I didnt replace the first ABS fuse properly, we live down a very bumpy track and it must have fell out! Replaced said fuse and I am back to original fault of all 3 lights staying on and ABS etc being inoperative

    Also disconnected battery, made no difference, so at the mo what happens is, ignition on only ABS light illuminates, ABS light then remains on, TC,ABS and HDC all inoperative.

    Pulled, checked and replaced the ABS fuses and now just the ABS light is on but still no TC or ABS working does anyone know the location of the ABS relay? Found the relay bridged it across and pump is working fine

    Its the TC, ABS and the HDC with an exclamation. It looks like I am gonna need to get it on a code reader. Thats a really useful table, my green HDC light doesnt come on when engaged and I will see if the ABS kicks in on some loose gravel when I go out later. That may narrow it down a bit.

    Ive looked and I cant seem to find the same problem anywhere! Hopefully somebody has had this problem, I ran my freelander with all 4 wheels off the ground to identify a transmission fault ( which I did, now repaired! ) but now I have the 3 amigos, Ive checked the wiring to see if was stretched...
