I have had my Facelift TD4 about 6 months, it was a dog when I got it which is why I only paid £400 for it. I have mopped up many faults and fitted many new parts but have never really had a sustained period of faultless starting. Cold Starts being the most annoying. I had paid for the...

Joe_H - I had that problem with the seatbelt when I refitted my back seat after fitting the new handle and cable. Turns out its a well known problem caused by 2 things, the little plastic bobble on the belt slipping under the plastic cover and that fact that you undid the seat belt and turned...

Yes Old diver but you had the old one to work from as a guide :-) I had nothing and as I said there is nothing on the web to show you. Glad you fixed yours so quickly.

Here is a short guide to fitting the cable. The cable has different nipples on each end, the thin end goes into the latch while the thicker end goes into the mechanism. You need to have dismantled the seat and removed the mechanism from the side of the seat before fitting the cable. Feed the...

Yes but those kits are nearly £20 and you have to use an electric drill. I'll stick with 1p of Jiff and some elbow grease :-)

FIXED IT MYSELF ! Will document it later with some photos, suffice to say its really awkward and now its fixed I am not dismantling it to take photos :-)

3 months on and my fix is still holding. Phew.

Thought I would share this tip, not sure if its widely known but hey it worked for me and the results are great. As you can see in the photos my headlight were dirty / milky / scratched on the tops on both sides and no amount of washing would shift it. I took my wife's advice and used some...

Not a lot of thought put into this site, would have expect a nice list of vehicle makes etc to make life easy.

The 4 were all easy to get out, probably as they had been out before. No photos I am afraid, I just lay on my back under engine with truck on ramps. Its all accessible and a doddle to do. I only used a small socket set as the exhaust is quite close on the LHS bush. Flow Flex don't list any LR...

It was the anti roll bar bushes, I fitted some Flow Flex ones this morning and the problem has vanished. Thanks for the advice though.

I replaced Freelander's Front Anti Roll Bar bushes today with some nice Flow Flex Poly Bushes I got off ebay for £16. What a difference and it only took half an hour, just drove truck onto some ramp, threw a 10mm socket at them and hey presto ! Gone are the nasty clunks when turning a corner...

When I bought my 2004 TD4 Facelift Freelander it had a missing latch on the big rear seat. I was able to pull up the red button on the top and unlock the seat but it was always a struggle. I decided to sort this out when I saw a new latch and cable on ebay, still in its genuine LR bag etc...

I thought I would finished off my thread with an update. The cranking but not firing issue I started this thread off with is fixed, that was the gasket in the HP Fuel Pump Regulator. The reason I had the car in pieces was to try and fix the warm re-start fault, that I and many other FL owners...

Nodge68 : 400kPa as per manual.

Nodge68 : Clearly looking at the values I gave earlier it is not 250kPa. Having left it 3hrs my truck now starts on the button, so it would seems I have now fixed my warm start fault. Manual clearly says 400kPa and I was told by a LR expert that 350kPa is the minimum needed for fault free...

Fitted my new LP fuel pump this afternoon, initially I was sceptical of the TI Automotive pump as the outgoing and presumably original pump was a Pierburg. The old pump was only delivering 330kPa, new pump is outputting 372kPa. Took it for a run and it feels much better, I will find out in a...

I'm fine now it runs and I can use it. Only paid £400 for it with full knowledge that it had issues. Didn't expect it to fight dirty though :-)

I have used my scanner to interrogate some real time data, when the engine is running my Low Pressure Fuel Pump in the wheel arch is reading 330 at idle and 305 at 2000rpm, I believe this is too low, Haynes says is should be 400 and I was told by a LR specialist recently that anything below 350...

Terrafirma Handheld Scanner for Land Rover range & Jaguar TF930 i930 icarsoft. Problem is that when you crank it resets itself so you can't get any realtime data thats relevant. Have complained to manufacturer about it as it had 5 codes that persisted, that all cleared once I got it started...
