    Freelander 1 Aftermarket CV axles

    Easy to damage ABS sensor cables when changing driveshaft. Looks suspiciously like they might have damaged it. Some folks don't unplug and stretch cable to take driveshaft out. Worth checking the plug and socket are good in the wheel arch. Sensor is not too bad to change yourself. Yours is an...

    renault/gates thermostat varieties

    This may help. Several ways of doing this. I prefer the later with the hose size increase. Especially on an Automatic. https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/fuel-burning-heater-still-on-with-temperature-normal-solved.395532/page-2

    There is room, honest !! Unplug connector and it rotates. Corners are cut off to make clearance for sensor.

    Drinking Coolant / Head Gasket

    I'd say that what you can see and think are valve cut outs are the shadows or actual valves standing open looking like they overlap the bright ring. The bright ring could be the top piston ring if these are the actual valves rather than cut outs. The inlet manifold can allow water to be...

    Drinking Coolant / Head Gasket

    There appears to be reflections but looks like your arrowed part of gasket to me. Is that looking up at head underside or block ??

    Drinking Coolant / Head Gasket

    Looks like the shiny fire ring on the head gasket. Compression sounds OK if all similar.

    Thoughts on EGR removal

    You are missing nothing ! It is a simple way of effecting EGR removal and cost nowt... If a blank or a hollowed out EGR is fitted it improves the air flow. Whether it is noticeable is difficult to answer

    Older F1 EML? (SOLVED)

    My 2003 1.8 Petrol has an EML. It has shown at times. Not with emission problems though and I am pretty sure it doesn't power on at key turning time. Lat time it showed it was a coil pack fault which is not fitted on early models.

    Older F1 EML? (SOLVED)

    EML.doesn't light as a test when switched on. I will double check that !! But sure it doesn't. I can put Pscan on it for you when you pass through.

    Freelander 1 All bolts etc Metric?

    The nuts on the front of the propshaft to IRD bolts are best fit for 1/2 inch AF. Also the TD4 aux belt tensioner is 15/16 inch AF. 24mm is loose and hurts your knuckles when it slips off !! Can you get 6 sided ring spanners ??

    Ever since I got my 2003 TD4 Sport, the turbo lets out a growl or a rasping noise when it is working, say when the car changes down on a hill and the turbo comes in again. At 53k miles, I didn't think it was a turbo bearing, now at 68k it has got neither worse nor better!! Figured if it was a...
