2nd Nov 2008 - The Big Net!




Sunday 2nd November 2008, 7pm till 9pm.
Channel 27 (UK FM).

Anti roll bar bush
FNS bottom ball joint knackered (what a fecking stupid system of having to replace the bottom arm just for the sake of a ball joint - not to mention the 10ft long bolt holding it all together!)
Catalyst knack'd so replaced for MOT
HEAD GASKET!!!!!
Air-con leaking
Interior overhead lights won't switch on but work with doors opening
Various different knocks from all over the vehicle when going over rough ground
Leaking rear door trim

The fact that it is a Freelander is a fault in itself!

Needless to say, after all the above crap i.e. when the head gasket went, I just knocked it out on ebay and with the proceeds bought an old Volvo V40 which in the couple of months I've had it hasn't even farted out of turn. Shame really as i would love to go back to a Hippo but I think I'll just have to wait until a few FL2 start to appear on the 2nd hand market as a FL1 is not worth the money whatever the price.

seized v6 engine at 500 miles. Software controls design fault.
auto box started leaking at 9k miles.
aurto box replaced at 12k miles by main dealer, who's made it squeal.
Now they're refusing to take the blame for the squeal. It only started when the auto box was replaced.
Still, what do you expect from a 7 year old car, currently on 14.5k miles. Yes, less than 15k miles.

My old 1.8 Petrol '51 (had it from new) developed the usual head gasket/ slipped liner problem just as the warranty expired, but Land rover fixed it for free. My newer TD4 '04 has the usual rattles, squeaky/slap wiper blades, door creaks and a rather worrying purge/prime moan from a fuel processing kind of thing that hides under front offside wing that I haven't quite worked out yet. But, you gotta love 'em - had a VW Golf plus inbetween - YAWN!

would that be yer FBH ?

Replacing the bottom suspension arm plus bolt is a bit exteme you can drill the ball joint out and bolt another in. Least you can on my 'L' series.
