Ours is V-Reg and has only 23k miles on the clock. Can't verify that mileage as we only bought it 5 months ago, but has stamps in the service book upto 21k with a cam-belt change at 18k.

Many thanks Mad Hat Man - Much appreciated :)

Hi guys Cable snapped on the tailgate so I've purchased a 2nd hand replacement unit. Does anyone have any idea where I can get instructions with diagrams on how to replace the assembly? Many thanks :)

Ok ..... Mirror done :) Much easier than I though as it only took me 10-mins to do at 11 o'clock last night in the dark & rain :) "Hopefully" it will now get through the MOT tomorrow. Next, the rear window ..... that's going to be more of a challenge I think! Thanks again for the help :)

Sounds almost too easy .... I'm sure I can break something somewhere ;)

Thanks - Any ideas on the tailgate? Seems very cramped in the door assembly and for the life of me I coulnd't see where the cable originally ran.

Hi Guys My wife had a really, really bad day with the Freelander on Monday this week. First, the tailgate window decided to go down by itself and refused to raise again - Just beeped when the button pressed. Then a kindly yellow bus decided to "remove" the drivers side wing mirror. Finally...

I recently discovered that the previous owner spray-painted all the plastinc bumpers but negelcted to use primer ..... it's now started peeling off the rear plastic trim and look awful. Does anyone know the best way to remove the paint from plastic trim so that I can get it re-painted...

Hi guys Yes, it the amazing, gas guzzling envy of the 4x4 world ..... the 1.8k series ;)

Thanks Jerry - Will do!

Hi Guys My wife's just returned from a 3-day trip into deepest, darkest Devon. She complained that the car seemed to loose all power when trying to go up hills and flooring it at 70mph in 5th gear only resulted in it going slower and slower. I've borrowed the car today to drive my 25-miles...

Quick question - Should the airbag light on the dash come on briefly when the keys are in the ignition and turned? All other lights come on but the airbag light stays off and not having the original user manual I don;t know whether this is correct!? On my Audi, the SRS light comes on briefly...

How long have you owned your Freelander? We bought ours a few weeks back and I've had similar questions, so the following may help if you've recently aquired yours : http://www.landyzone.co.uk/lz/f9/new-owner-question-31541.html

Our Jeep Cherokee had switchable 2WD/4WD and Part-Time 4WD - 2w/4w was switchable any any sensible road speed. Needless to say the car was only ever run using 2 x wheels. Good point ref the insurance company - The problem would be how to go about asking them, as most people in these...

It's possible that I'm being fobbed off, however, I've always been over critical of every car I've owned and always seem to find niggly faulty. My wife certainly doesn't see any issues with the car and doesn't think there's anything wrong. I'll monitor it over the next couple of weeks - I...
