Update incase anyone else ever gets this problem, was ird being replaced when part is delivered. Cheers for everyone's help.

Got a mate coming looking at it tomorrow afternoon ill pass all this on and let u know what he says, cheers everyone really appreciate the help.

How much that cost u pal, if u don't mind me asking.

There's still drive but its jerky and with the clicking and clunking, started it up this morning didn't move it, starts fine so all engine is good I assume? Getting it looked at tmorrlw, thanks for all the help everyone, think for time being I'm looking at taking props off till I've got more...

Was taking em off this weekend aswell grumpy! Gutted just praying it not too bad. Forgot to mention last night there was also a smell with whatever happened like gas? Does this help anymore with the diagnosis? Thanks for the help and advice so far everyone.

So if i remove prop shaft and vcu it will be at least functional until after crimbi?

If this is the ird what would be my cheapest option for the time being, or is there not one? :(

The ticking noise seems to come from the passenger front. What am I looking at price wise? Just looked on ebay Freelander ird box? If that's what I'm after I'm looking at 250 cheers for help lads

Recently posted about a vibrating noise when driving would that seem to fit? What would I be looking at to replace ird, all I need at the minute, got baby's birthday, Christmas, gutted.

just took the baby for a drive to get her off to sleep, couple of miles down the round the Freelander made a loud bang then clicking noise has continued to do this all the way home, drove 5mph wincing all the way, looked underneath as it sounded as if something had fell off, nothing, its just...

Checked tyre pressures all ok apart front front passenger side, took it for a quick drive realized from 30 - 40ish its vibration then above that seems to go to a pulsating noise?

Nice one pal, just hope these tyres haven't been different for a long time and its messed anything up, you would think where ever the previous owner got then fitted would have advised on this. I'll get them orders tonight and check all tyre pressures etc.

Cheers grumpy appreciate ur advice I'm new to landrovers! When you say same tyres do you mean same brand as well or will it be ok as long as they're all snow tyres?

I've got a mate who's land rover mad having a look this weekend think he mentioned vcu, am I looking at a fortune here? Hoping not just had a baby and crimbo on the way! Cheers for the help lads

4wd as far as I know pal
