excuse my ignorance and I have read several threads on this but how does the 2 stroke help exactly? I've read on here that it gives more poke yet increases mpg too. Is that really right? :)

I hate dishonest people, unfortunately though I think you'd end up being out of pocket if you went through courts etc when considering you only paid £1100 for it and it would probably take months and months. Also I'm not sure you have any rights in this situation unless his advert said "in good...

Sounds daft (and forgive me if it is obvious) have you looked in the handbook wallet? Often you get a sepperate booklet for the stereo explaining button functions etc. May well say the specific model number there.

that's what I was going to suggest for the knocking noise if it wasn't rear diff mounts.

I think you can therefore confidently rule out a HG faliure (from my limited experience). good luck, keep us posted!

most recent for me is a siezed off side front brake caliper (2000 TD4). recon cost 69 squids.

exactly my thoughts. shame it's the wrong colour eh!

ooh! :D Did you see that Top Gear episode a couple of months ago with not only the car with the 27 litre Spitfire engine in it (*ahem* old hat, very cool but seen before) but also that looney car powered by the engine from a JU88? The hot oil-spitting 46-litre V12 BMW Brutus. Now that's a...

Turbo Deisel = win all the way We have our Freelander TD4 and also a 2004 TDCi Focus estate. The Focus averages about 60mpg! Admitedly it's not a Landy and it's got a funny blue oval badge on the front but there you go. I'd never go back to petrol engines and a V6 is just silly (unless you...

I drove up there with mine all connected. tbh though, you really can't tell if it's started to do any damage or not untill it's all too late. Bell said that mine was really stiff and defo the right descision to bung a recon VCU on and I noticed the difference immediately (when on full lock)...

Austen (from Bell) was saying that people have been in with the transmission so bad that when they go on full lock it stalls! Mine felt like it had the handbrake being pulled on, now with a recon VCU I have hardly any resistance at full lock. I drove a lot more than 100 miles to get there...

Hello, I live in Eastbourne, East Sussex. I like driving and riding my mountain bike in the mud. They are many green lanes round these parts, I have been down a lot of them and got stuck twice in one of them. If you see a 3 door blue Freebie with Fox motocross stickers on the hardtop...

will do :)

creak could be from suspension I guess but if the knocking's gone, looks like it's solved :)

bang/ knock caused by faulty rear diff mounts (is that what you're having gradually replaced?) or cracked sub frame I suspect. If so, both fairly cheap fixes. does it do it specifically when going into reverse from stationary? if so, a replaced central rear diff mount fixed mine when it was...

Just got a re-con brake calliper on my TD4 for £69

Ended up being a siezed brake calliper :doh: re con brake calliper £69 so not too bad.

wow Singvogel that document is fantastic! nice one!

no worries :)

Just came across this site which is v useful if you're new to the TD4 engine (as I am) and are still finding your way around it. ROVER 75 MGZT SERVICING
