Hi all,

Just experiencing some problems with my new (to me) freelander, I own a td4 se 2004 model, now the list

Handbrake light on indicating a brake fault, have checked the sensor at the brake fluid bottle and cleaned it but still light is on, but switch has been damaged before, possible new part details or other suggestions?

White/grey smoke at times from exhaust and also black smoke at high revs,

Was also wondering on the idea of removing the driveshaft to the rear wheels at an attempt to ease steering, possible gearbox issues, I knew this was an issue on my previous 02 model

Any help greatly appreciated, thanks chris

do you mean removing the rear propshaft, it will reduce wear on drivetrain but will only be 2wd so why?
 
Yes same thing, and yes it would be 2wd defeating the purpose I agree and why I never done it before but have heard nasty stories about it causing large amounts of damage to drivetrain and to the gearbox resulting in ££££ to be spent,

Also heard this was a problem in early models but later models after 03 the design was slightly altered, opinion or fact I do not know, thus reason for asking lol
