Hill desent noise

The best 4x4 · Aug 13, 2009

Today I thought I would use my hill desent for the first time. I was quite concerned by a noise it made along with the normal banging from the abs there was a strange whirring coming from o/s under bonnet near windscreen. Is this normal or do I need to get it sorted before my warranty runs out please? Oh it's an auto box by the way, don't know if that makes a difference

sounds normal to me, my freelander sounded the same.

On Discovery you should use the HDC only in LOW and there will be no bang sound.The other noise(normal) is the ABS modulator near the brake pump that pushes the brake in your place.

thanx m8. I think the hill desent only works in low range doesn't it? And it makes the noises on mine whilst in low.
