Hi there

Hi there,
new forum member - X-pat living in Switzerland.

I need some help - hope I have come to the right place!

My Freelander went in for its MOT yesterday and failed on 1 point.

The gear leaver has to much play in it. I hope I'm supplying enough info...Please ask if not.

The Haynes manual doesnt help.

Can anyone give me some advise on what parts I need to get and advise on the fitting.

Many thanks

Welcome Jeremy.

Try section 9.14 of the Haynes Manual, "Handbrake - check and adjustment."

Cheers

Hi Blippi,Im now somewhat confused.....9-15 in the Haynes is about breaking system.....unless I or you have different haynes manuals......I'm on about the gear leaver...and what I have learnt in the between time its something to do witht the rod assembly-change and bushes.......Any suggestions?CheersJeremy

No, you are correct. I read your original post too quickly and thought you were on about the hand brake!

Adjusting the handbrake will have little effect on the gear knob!

Sorry!

Cheers

hi and welcome, i aint too sure how the gear lever fits into the box but if i were you i would have a look and then take it out, refit it and make sure everything is tight
