Freelander Faults poll
just an in-house poll on the most common Freelander 1 problems,
Please vote and try to explain any of your FL faults and problems in a post below.
Please try to keep the problem to a fault or premature failure rather than wear and tear.
Thanks

Re: Freelander Faults poll
pity the poll dont include a couple of the more specific probs - like chassis cracking/subframe attachment/3 amigos. and the KV6 and K1.8 as specific models, rather than "petrol"

I only got 10 poll options, I did think about generically grouping the diesels engines as well, sure we can start another poll to refine the survey 
The Misc/other option should cover the cracked chassis etc |

Re: Freelander Faults poll
its just the more specific the fault - the better the results can be interpreted. Byut yu obviously cant make a poll cover every known fault.

Its just a guide, if we see a particular option storming ahead then another poll can be started
