Hi, new to the forum i've had my 2000 diesel freelander for nearly 4 years.
It's done nearly 150,000 miles now so not too surprising that the IRD seems on the verge of failing.
I did try to be prepared for this by buying a spare IRD a while back but now I've had a good look at both of them I noticed the coolant pipes on my spare go off in a different direction to the ones on my car.
I am wondering if this is actually a V6 IRD so question is how do you tell the difference between the two?
Pete

Replacement prop (includes the boot) for the front on a v6 is eggspensive to say the least.
