Just got this over the weekend. My first every Freelander and 1st post to the forum!..

 

[Kaney]

My Freelander only 77k done with a really good service history.

This is mine, a great motor, apart from the whining fuel sender.

Just changed mine in the van for a new one this is now sounding louder where as the same Bosch one in the car is quiet so might have to order another and send this one back as normally a noisy one is a sign it's on it's way out. Enjoy the Hippo

There she is: td4 HSE, just returned from France, hasn't missed a beat!

Only got partial pix of so far, but good shots of freshly cleaned EGR, fuel filter renewal and headlight buffing.

 

[mikeau]

Headlights came up well. What did you use..?

 

[Geobloke]

Good effort. Love a bit of Freelander maintenance... Those lights came up well. Toothpaste?

 

[MAXTHEDOG]

Thanks all. Autoglym Headlamp Restoration kit.
Quite pleased myself too.
A question though, relating to the pic with the fuel filter in. There’s the filter I replaced on the left with its black caps still on, what I assume it the fuel pump in the middle, but what is that squat cylinder on the right?
Reason I ask is that I can hear it (the pump ) and I read in another thread that it could be a sign it’s on its way out, so given that I’ve just replaced all filters and fluids should I be planning that replacement too. I’ve no service history and it’s just done 148k.

I am going to say fuel sedimentor, but don't quote me on it.

Looks like a Freelander 1 face lift. Is it a TD4? My Freelander 2 TD4 does not have those bits. 148k miles is just about broken in. When was the timing belt last done?

 

[MAXTHEDOG]

Cheers Geobloke,
Fuel sedimenter? I’ll Google it. As for the timing belt no idea…. Auxiliary belt, tensioner and AirCon belt two weeks ago. Better budget for it doing….

 

[Geobloke]

I was in the same position when I bought Phoebe - Adventures of here

Her belt was in pretty good condition, but like you not knowing meant it had to be changed, just in case.

Gulp!! At least I haven’t got a Haldex.

Ha too true... Life with a Helldex does complicate things

I have finally succumbed to the "More-than-one-Land-Rover" bug, and acquired this:-
