Hi I've had several 1.8's one did this turned out the switch on the back of the ignition was failing The other the coil had started melt if u unbolt it and look under u can see it

I suspect it's the rail sensor and connector pins Lr do a mod sensor and overlay loom very easy to fit but a bit pricy

Double check there is no oil leak from cam seals or gasket running down into box Never heard of exhaust full of water before

If u have the tail door open and roll the latch over fully and close the window fully Then try starting ect and see what happens

Remove the rear r/h boot trim and on top of the strut are 2 slim relays one for window and other door lock if it then works its relay If not other common fault is wiring braking in door shut or gamble switch U could also try looking up the bcu test routing that will open the door 4 u

Can be done easier if door open and lock rolled across Also will not cal if not going full movent had many that the spare wheel been hit slightly and stopping window dropping fulley Remove trim and check window at bottom

The grinding noise and rattle sounds like the pads had it several times on non Lr pads fitted genuine and a fine

It is behind the roof lining in centre of car if u have a sun roof it's in the middle back of it but not all freelanders had one as was option post 2001

Hi is it the nav one if so lookin the glove box for a sticky label the last 5 digits are the code

Sounds like it only started after u fitted the tyres ??? If so u need to get them checked as could be miss shaped or balancing out also u need to put the tyres with the most tread to the back or u will get this also.

Where about in the uk are u I would do a leak off check on the injectors Disconnect the small pipe ontop of the injectors and clamp it off. Turn key on ignition only Look at top of injectors if a bad one u will see fuel leaking from the top ( causing a pressure drop and engine will not start ) note fuel pump only runs for a couple of seconds turn off then back on

Hi there is a tsb from l/rover If u contact ur parts there is a kit for pre or post 1a 1.8 if u have a pre 1a it includes a jumper loom connects below the engine ecu where there is a row of connectors (n/s). Also a new header tank and float sensor unit. On post 1a u get a small loom from sensor to ecu where u add 2 wires to the main connector on the ecu. Both put the engine warning light on when the level drops to low ( does not store a fault just top up and light goes out) Note for post 1a will need software update to work correctly normally dealer charge 1/2 hr Hope this helps when I am back at work will add the bulletin number ( on course at mo at gaydon)
