update''''''''''''''' taken ages due to the new addition to family reaking havoc, i purchased 2 sets of inphase xtc 601 from car audio centre, after many grazed knuckles and swearing, i layed down all new wiring (van damme cable) and whilst id got the glovebox and surrounding trim...

once everything fitted id suggest getting a proper custom remap done so you can get the best out it, oh and decat it, iirc diesel can get away with no cat

have you blanked the egr and added the bigger intercooler, ive been reading loads of post about discos td5 runnning 190+bhp

whens last time you serviced it, dirty injectors maybe, check battery volts, oil condition, had this on my misses focus turned out to be the battery being 10 years old the battery was on its last legs, but we did have slow cranking aswell

check fuel pumps are running by using a long item if hard to reach while someone cranks the engine, had my old freelander pumps go, 2nd high pressure pump went first then in tank went short time after

ive had a freelander td4 took it offroading at sibbertoft leciester, and a cheeky drive through eastnor estate, was absolutely brilliant only major flaw was the ground clearance due to the independant suspension setup but a 2" lift and bigger tyres and its light weight will take it anywhere...

tracey chapman -fast car otis reading - try a little tenderness nightcrawlers - push the feeling on bear in mind im only 25

cheers turbo, regarding the juice amp, its a 4ch 1200 and for some reason it just doesnt do the job, have tried it on another rig with better branded speakers and it just seems weak, but hayho im going to enquire at bass junkies to see how much equipment and fitting would be, i...

right im back from hilday but back at work, whilst on holiday i got speaaking to some people about my issue, and was givern so many different answers it hasnt help lol, but top of the list were :- 1) grounds on headunit gone causing a loop-->ive eliminated that by plugging phone directly to...

not yet im on holiday and taken the other car so wont be updated untill i get back next week

no i only turned it on once everything was plugged and ready to go

from headunit using proper connectors down the side of the car along the rca's, i took the car to car audio centre earlier who checked out my wiring and told me that my wiring was fine but i need a new headunit. i cant see the headunit being the problem though or am i being nieve

ok i just spent the last hour digging around pulling out wires checking for loose end/ poor connections. i unplugged the rca from the back of the headunit and the crackling can still be heard through all of the speakers, then i unplugged the block connector for the front speakers from the...

sorry, i used a different rca from my iphone (jack to aux) so wasnt using the rca from the head unit and the problem was still there,

i plugged my iphone via rca directly to the amp and the same problem occurs so the rca's are not at fault

cheers T9, just to clarify for further replies, speakers have passive crossovers, and polarities are correct, gains on the headunit are turned off or zero'd, high/low pass filter up slightley to kill off the very low freqs without killing bass totally, its does this no matter what...

hi to all, its been a while since i last posted, ok so ive installed a small sound system in my bmw, using a juice ja790 amp to power 2 rear inphase 6.5in speakers, the problem im having is when i play my music (all different genres) i get a crackling coming through the rear...

now breaking, so if you want any parts let us know asap

thats right all the coolant is heated warming the engine block for easier starting and better effieciancy

ive taken my freelander off road a few times and its come in handy a hell of alot, but ive got used to big car comfort and sloth like pace,

my first legal car, a renault megane 1.9 non turbo diesel, cost £250, and was well RUBBISH, i could even say it was cheap motoring

wouldnt it be great if a thousand trucks all just suddenly broke down outside parliment blocking it off for hours hmmmmmmmmm

i dont think people would be so p***ed at it if the government lowered the the cost after a period of high price, but they dont they just raise the price and keep it, the only way is up in their eyes,

i so have to agree here, us british are pathetic when it comes to standing up for whats right, we only moan about everything or keep banging on about past acheivements but has a nation we have not moved forward. i fear we will soon be the 3rd world country especially with our goverment raping...

im stuck between two, either upgrade my freelander to a range rover 3.0td6 an early one (2002/on) or go back to a car and the only one really taking my fancy is a petrol e46 se, dont know what to do and only have a few months to decide

well for comparison, i get around 30-32mpg non motorway driving, with odd blast up hill holding the gears,(too clean to system lol) so if you get the same as that with the fbh or a couple of mpg either side i think it wouldnt be worth disabling it.

just take out the fuse for it, or get on the land rover forum to find out how to take it out completelty, if theres no fuse/power supply it wont operate. i have a td4 but without the fbh and been looking at having one fiitted, and it seems simple enough installation, so you should easily be...

i dont no much about these at all, but do they have a low ratio box, as i thought they were just road going 4x4 with minimal off road ability i.e wet grass etc. would be interested to know as i dont no much about the x5's and really like the look of them. i taken my freelander off roading...

that could also be a possibility, but as he said he is struggling to pick up speed over 60mph the clutch could very well be the source as to why he has a power loss well a transfer of power.

£250 to torque cars site user's

get your clutch done as it might be slipping hence why your struggling to pick up speed. if i remember right to test the clutch for slip, put it in 4th and let the clutch out slowly f it does not stall then your clutch is slipping, you will have to read up on that tho, the other way is to...

it seems perfectly fine, not damage whats so ever, its a older silver type block with springs, the other reason why we think it could be an ignition wire is because it just suddenly stopped working, there wasnt any trouble with the blower speed or other common resistor pack probs

hi all, an update to this thread, im helping g1ng31989 with this at home, now we have had the resistor pack off and tested the plug for it and there was NO current at all going to the resistor pack, or to the in car controls for the heater, so im thinking that it is an ignition feed thats gone...

hi all we have a burgundy renault megane coupe 2.0 8v for sale on a s plate, car is in very good cosmetic condition, engine is good and runs with a 140k miles on but no service history, has tax and mot untill may electric windows, central locking, pas selling for spares or...

spray the speedo connector on the gearbox with some carb cleaner, if this doesnt work you may need to replace it

i would get the fuel pumps checked, and a leak back check on the injectors, clean the egr valve as that deffo got to be full of gunk by 130k, and from what i hear the tdci respond very well to a custom remap

lol you madman.

hi dave, my mate is currently putting in a c20xe into his corsa b, off the top of my head he had to have new mounts, new rad, ecu, new wiring loom, uprated fuel pumps, he also had to strengthen the whole chassis to account for the extra torque which your definately gonna have to do has your...

you will only probably get small gains on the 1.4, its gonna be cheaper and more rewarding to get a 2 litre block, your options for the 1.4 is most likely pipercross air filter or equvilent, decat/sportscat exhaust, fast road cams, and remap, someone correct me if im wrong but you prob get...

cheers, just gotta get some of that forte injector cleaner but its expensive as hell
