Possible problem with 1st gear???

Lanesra · May 22, 2013

Hi,

I have just bought my first Landrover(Freelander Commercial 2000 1.8 Petrol with 90k), when i select first gear it sometimes jerks violently....doesn`t happen everytime??

Do i need to take it to a garage??? or is the first gear on these different to a car???

Would be great to hear some expert views :0)

Hi and Welcome

it isn't usual at all for a freelander to do this. it could be the clutch actuating arm that's siezing where it goes into the gearbox. mine did this till i drowned it with wd40 for a couple of weeks then pushed grease around it.
