    Freelander 2 wobble/judder

    Hi chaps! Back again with more issues :-( So I’ve now owned the Freelander 2 for 18 months, new PTU, Haldex striped and serviced, two new front driveshafts, blower motor, bonnet catch. Loads of work done. Oils changed etc... I’m currently on my second lot of driveshafts as the Britpart shafts...

    Freelander 2 tap noise?

    Hi Guys! As some will know I’ve recently replaced the PTU and front drive shafts on the Freelander, as well as servicing the Haldex and replacing all the oils etc…. The car is now driving much smoother and quieter than before! One thing I have noticed today is when driving between 20mph and...

    Half shaft install help!

    Hi chaps! My constant battle with the Freelander 2 is really starting to frustrate the hell out of me! A few weeks ago I changed the PTU and driver side drive shaft. Once you know what you’re doing a pretty easy job! At the time I thought well if I’m replacing one drive shaft I might as well...

    FL2 Haldex strip down

    Hi chaps. I’m on phase 2 of my repair/servicing on my 2014 FL2 ! I’ve completed the installation of a replacement PTU and driveshaft, so I’m looking forward to some quieter driving! Now while I have the prop off I decided to remove the Haldex to give it a proper coat of looking at and a...

    PTU & Gearbox which oil?

    Hi chaps. So I’ve picked up a refurbished PTU and want to get this bolted in place today, what I’m not 100% sure on is which oil to use? I know it’s 75w90 fully synthetic, everything that is being thrown up is either manual or gl5 but semi synthetic? I don’t want to put some cheap oil in there...

    Smart Key Not Recognised

    Hi chaps. Looking for a quick answer to this. Today I was in the middle of removing the bottom ball joint from the wheel hub (front driver side). I wanted to turn the wheel back straight as I had had the wheel turned out. I opened the car door (driver side), I got the key out of my pocket so...

    PTU question

    Hi chaps! Within 6 months of buying my 2014 Freelander 2 I noticed a constant drone noise (car only has 100k miles), I thought I actually picked up on a quieter version of the noise on purchase, but was told it was road noise from the worn and mismatch tyres! 🤦‍♂️ Anyway, I had new tyres...

    Freelander 2 manual

    Hi chaps. I’m looking for a hard copy Freelander 2 manual for my 2014 model. Ideally I’d like it to cover issues such as the Haldex and PTU as well as the usual servicing etc. Can anyone point me in the right direction please? I’m assuming a Haynes manual is more DIY based and not workshop...
