Hmm, i cant find anything vibrating on bodywork, yet thats exactly what it feels like. Reminds me of a car I had when the exhaust was touching the bodywork, but its not in this case. It doesn't vibrate when revving standing still. It only comes through the car when driving. What ever it is its...

Oh yes, i know the place! I'd forgotten about that one! Thanks for the reminder.:)

Hi All I've been reading through the archives and reading up on Freelanders in general. I've read that when people have vcu problems etc, it’s quite common to remove the rear prop assembly whilst getting a new VCU. Well we never go off road or anything :o; our Freelander is simply an estate...

Could be improved upon though. He could live next door and do free private work!:D

Thanks for the top advice. Ordered up two new 16"Wranglers (£125 delivered) and had them fitted today. Noise gone! :eek: i didn't doubt your credentials or anything I just couldn't get how the bearing noise could be tyres, but you were right! Many thanks.:)

Not that far from me. Is it worth having a second hand spare though?

It does help, thanks. :) I need to get some of yard stick on this job before i hand over too much of my hard earned wedge to an unscrupulous type! Shame I'm not nearer this guy!

Now there's a marque with a flawless reputation!:rolleyes: :D

Well done mate. Glad you finally got it sorted!

Hi All My 2.0l diesel is due a cambelt change shortly. Anyone had this done recently? If so, was it by an independant or a LR dealer? If you dont mind me asking what did it cost? Many thanks.

Its been done. Its called a Pajero.:D

Cheap one on Ebay, well cheap at the moment anyway, but will probably go up and up now I've alerted everyone to it!:rolleyes: :D

:eek: We was so pleased with ours, but I think after reading that and all things considered, it'll be going on ebay!;) :D

2.0l diesel and TD4 exhaust back boxes wouldn't be the same would they per chance, he asked hopefully.... Or put another way, would the one below fit my 2000 diesel?

What about this one ?

Incredible! But i'll bow to your knowledge here and I've ordered a couple of new tyres today. it needs them anyway, so I may as well fit them before lobbing out on wheel bearings! I love Land Rovers!:D

Is it one of these?

If you're buying tyres online, try this firm. Factor in £10 a tyre for your local tyre place to fit them if you dont change your own tyres.

Why Hippo?:confused:

Thanks for the reply, that gives me somewhere to start looking.:)
