Hi all,

I'm new to this forum, live up in the North East, and looking for a Freelander2.
I was hoping you guys could enlighten me on the important stuff to look at when viewing a FL2, browsing the posts it looks like IRD and Haldex units are a major cause for concern...

I've had a look at a few for sale, all automatics, one of the worst knocked about ones also made a knocking noise from under the drivers seat area when pulling away and turning slowly on full lock. Could this be a sign of the IRD failing? This particular one had a well used towbar fitted, so probably had a hard life?

How best to field check a Haldex unit is still operational without resorting to finding a nearby field and wheelspinning about on it,,, jack one rear wheel up off the ground with the engine ticking over in neutral and try to spin it by hand???

Thanks in advance for your tips and advice.

Sean :)
