Re: Deceased Land Rover - UPDATE
The garage have just told me it is the starter motor, so I guess that I'll go ahead with that.......................

Re: Deceased Land Rover
If you are handy with spanners, this is a repair kit (from fleabay) that can sort the problem for a while:

It bought me a year before I had to bite the bullet and spend hundreds on a new motor!
Glad you got it diagnosed

Re: Deceased Land Rover
Theres a shop in malaga that repairs starter motors. We had a opel sintra one repaired for 100e, and a ford transit one..
Rebuild.. Nobody said they wanted a new one ?

Re: Deceased Land Rover
And its probably an hours labour to remove and replace ... So it shouldnt cost too much? We will soon see.

Re: Deceased Land Rover
They said about 80 euro labour and I think the starter motor around 150
The Malaga option is out of the question because the car, which is not going, is in Estepona.
I'll keep you all posted!

Re: Deceased Land Rover
Actually, I've just looked up the price on a web site I regularly use for my Td5 spares and a Freelander new starter motor is either 130 GBP or 150 GBP (neither is a LR official branded part) and the latter price will get you a Denso part (the original equipment maker) so I will revise my earlier comment 'cos you may well be getting a new/refurbished one and not just a repair to the existing one.
Best wishes

Re: Deceased Land Rover THE RESULTS SHOW
It was probably the cable came off but it took them 3 hours to relise that...
