    Putting an insurance cat N 1.8 XEi back on the road, (Project Tonga 1.8 XEi).

    Funny I've misread Tonga with Tanga before the pics, and googled tanga green in open office. Sexy car and lovely colour. I am still looking for a green freelander pref 1.8, if it runs and drives fine I will buy it.

    Wheel speed sensor(s) or brake pump I believe. Proper diagnosis will tell.

    Freelander 1 Tyre GO15 - size check

    the 215/60 might get rounded up like the moto ones. I would avoid that combination. 225/65 will only leave about 5mm (I think) up to the spring cups.

    New Defender

    In a few years, around 5, I will convert my freelander into a defender. Externally but who will know. Low chances of finding one for spares or repairs it was just released.

    New Defender

    I don't see much resemblance. I always rudely believe that the sale pitch for new land rovers should be "runs and drives, 3 years mot"

    Freelander 1 Flatspot 2000 revs

    Check the little ones 1st. I spent 400 quid with this issue rather than 3 quid for the hose that went to vacuum

    Freelander 1 Flatspot 2000 revs

    Fuel filter won't do. May be a split hose which is more probable. Low pressure pump... needs proper diag before you guess it by changing parts.

    Valve stem seals

    Not really. Maybe if you air pressure the piston through the injector hole so valves won't fall in the rabbit hole. You will still need to remove the camshafts and time it so that is just a small step from removing the cylinder head. If there is a way or a rover k type of guide I am interested...

    Freelander 1 Retrofitting passenger side airbag

    Thanks Nodge I shall look into it. Is the srs module separate (per side) or I need a srs module which is aware of both airbags, replacing existing? I will also have to see which PN to get as microcat says not fitted on my car.

    Freelander 1 Retrofitting passenger side airbag

    Hi, for my 03 TD4 is it easy to retrofit an airbag for the passenger? The handle looks nice but not very useful in case of a crash. I can get the airbag itself for around 20 and I presume the cabling is there... Do I need computer or the most important bit does the ECU need to know? Thanks

    Putting an insurance cat N 1.8 XEi back on the road, (Project Tonga 1.8 XEi).

    Ah yes if you are fine with that insurance won't care. If you do want the v5, this may or may not qualify as a pitfall. I for example would not have a car without the V5 unless I intend to keep it until scraptime.

    Putting an insurance cat N 1.8 XEi back on the road, (Project Tonga 1.8 XEi).

    Well the PO told you insurance has it. Perhaps I am wrong and for that I apologise, it's just that I myself avoid giving any reasons to get done. Also, it may never come... my ex housemate applied for one which was in a similar situation. He sold the car advertising "v5 needs applying simple form".

    Putting an insurance cat N 1.8 XEi back on the road, (Project Tonga 1.8 XEi).

    It depends, most insurance companies spot it, in nearly all cases will just charge fat premiums and in rare ones don't insure it. For example, my last FL 1.8 which was cat N had a 130 quid insurance, and the td4 one which had nothing is 88. I live in Bradford where insurance scams are common...

    Freelander 2 (LR2) Headlight Upgrade?

    Not a good idea or any car. Better get some LEDs for offroad. Cree ones should be very bright.
