Valve seals allowing oil into cylinders
oil ring on piston broken
worn valve guide in head
blue smoke means ur burning oil
black smoke burning to much fuel
white smoke burning coolant
the landrover part makes my wallet hide
leaving it will only foul up your plugs,crud up inside the engine
and eventualy kill it. no quick cheap fix there sorry

SOURCE: Fuel Filter in Freelander (replacing)

The fuel filter is located below the electrics box, half way between the battery and the bulkhead on the passenger side, under the bonnet. It is very difficult to see how it all fits, but it has a central screw which holds the plastic filter housing/mounting in place. Find this screw (which is a small self tapper) and be prepared to loose it, or use a magnetic screw driver. Then lift the plastic housing up and away, (towards the engine) be ready with loads of rags to catch the diesel fuel when you disconnect the pipes. There is an earth wire attached to the housing also. (anti interference, I think) It is quite a fiddle getting it back again, as it has two locating lugs on the back of the plastic housing/mounting.

Replace the battery in the key unit. There is a slot on the bottom edge for a coin or screwdriver to twist it open. Open, replace battery and snap shut.

My car losing water but runs perfect

several reasons one do you see a puddle under the vehical? second can you smell a sweet smell whether driving or just after parking it? third do you see any white smoke comming from the tail pipe? Is the oil level ok or is it over full and contamitated with water? is the water pump seeping out of the weep hole? If there is white smoke comming from the tail pipe then you likely have a bad head gasket or a cracked head. if any otherleaks are present find the source and fix. hope this helps

How to replace LR2 Third Brake Light

The Freelander is Land Rover's entry-level crossover SUV. Unlike other Land Rover vehicles that use a traditional "truck," body-on-frame chassis, the Freelander is built on a unibody, front-wheel drive car chassis. The Freelander is sometimes known in the U.S. as the "LR2."

1 Purchase replacement bulb P21/5W, available at most auto parts stores and at any Land Rover
dealer.

2 Turn off engine and open rear cargo door.

3 Remove the two Torx screws from the side of the tail light assembly. Carefully pull the assembly
away and unplug the electrical harness.

4 Turn the assembly over to access the bulb modules. There are three separate bulb modules; the
top module should be the brake light.

5 Rotate the bulb module counterclockwise to release it from the tail light assembly. Push the bulb
down (into the module) and turn it counterclockwise to remove it from the module.

6 Insert the new bulb into the bulb module. Carefully push the bulb down and turn it clockwise.
Reinsert the bulb module into the tail light assembly and turn it clockwise.

7 Reconnect the electrical harness to the tail light assembly. Remount the tail light assembly and
replace the Torx screws.

White smoke and engine cutting out

It sounds like the cylinder head gasket, or even a cracked head. You must go back to the repair shop.
