Morning all!

freelander 2 sport is intermittently refusing to reverse and sometimes drive. Any ideas before this girl takes it to the garage and is at the mercy of the mechanics

Goes into gear but won’t move when releasing clutch and l can feel resistance! Only happens intermittently.

Second issue is a very strange whirring noise when driving, sometimes very loud, sometimes quieter.
I’m going to get it looked at but just hoping for some pointers before l do!

Thanks Cheryl

More probably, the clutch need to be done.
If you can still move the car, take it to the garage before being stuck.
 
What year and engine is it?

2010 and Sport LE TD4
It's unusual for a manual to work then not work.
I'm wondering if it has an issue with a drive shaft spline, maybe slipping in and out of mesh, which prevents the wheels from turning randomly.
