Hello fello **** heap owners.
I have had my freelander now for 12 months now and think there is a big problem looming ahead. I was driving home from work yesterday and when I was coming down the lanes (admitedly I was thrashing her a little) when I turned my music down I could hear a loud whuring noise everytime I stopped excellerating. its still going on and im quite confident it is the gear box as I can feel it through the gear stick and the noise is from that area.
The only thing that puzzles me is that it carrys on when Im in nuteral. It only stopes when I accelerate!
New Gearbox???
any input would be valued?
P.S- im sure its not the IRD, I already removed the prop shaft and IRD pinion wheel and blanked it off.
P.P.S - Its a noturiosly **** 97 1.8 k series.
Anyone had the same thing?
