Newbie with 2003 Freelander 2.5V6 ES PREM

Already with problems

Just bought with 56,000 miles on it, drives lovely and interior is mint...but she does need some tweaks, that's for sure....

this introduction section, it's for YOU to tell US a little about YOURSELF, and not about the bloody car you have just bought

Favourite food is curry. Happy now?

i have the same car. most likely same problems.

Well I live in Cambridge but I bought it to take down to Bulgaria this summer. I can live without the 4wd so I am thinking of ditching the prop/VCU and saving myself the inevitable hassle of VCU failure. Engine seems sweet, plus lots of extras on this model...so I don't really want to part with it!

If your expansion tank is full and your inlet manifold doesn't rattle then you're doing well. plenty of other things to go wrong though...
