Hi Kriss, I also run a freelander same as yours. I'm almost completed with changing the head. On mine the offside headlamp cover came off. It managed to work it's way between the engine and chassis, snapped the aux drive belt, broke the cam belt covers, snapped the cam belt and bent 5 valves, all quicker than I've just written this, and that was ticking over at a road junction not at any sort of revs.

Did you ever get this problem sorted out with your's?

Stefan
