Thanks Joe I'll give them a call .p's I'm not a yank I suppose I should have called it a 5 door in heinsisght. Cheers.

Morning all. I have got a problem with the rear centre seat belt in my freelander1 station wagon. Basically it failed to pull out and after attacking it with my expertise and a screwdriver it will probably never work properly again!. So I just wanted to know if anyone could suggest where best to...

Would you Thanks for that.are the recon vcus a good buy I have been advised against them in the past???

Owut took about 80 secs. All tyres are identical I will look into getting a brand new vcu and bearings. I can get one with bearings for about £400 and I've been quoted £120 labour.

Done the test as suggested the wheel was quite stiff but did move (not as quickly as I had hoped). Drove at different speeds forward and reverse in full lock no noises whatsoever. Hasn't made the noise as yet while cornering Could it be the fact that the tyre pressures were slightly different...

Thanks for the advice, I will do as you suggest and I will let you know the outcome.

Can't feel anything through the steering wheel and the noise which would be better described as a creaking doesn't happen all the time and from inside the car it sounds like it's coming from just behind the gear stick and this is approximately where the vcu is.

Checked the bearings and they look fine to me.checked tyre pressure and two were a bit low so topped them up. Drove it on the corner where the knocking occurs and didn't knock however it doesn't always anyway. Will carry out the 1wut tomorrow and see what happens. Thanks for all the help so far.

As far as I know it was just the bearings that were replaced not sure what make. I will do the test when I get time and let you know the outcome thanks.

I bought it about 6months ago and have a receipt for 2 bearings that were fitted about 18 months ago so I presume they should be okay? How do I perform the one wheel test?? I must add that this is the only thing that worries me the vehicle drives perfectly well apart from the occasional noise...

Hi, I have a problem with my freelander td4 04plate. When I go round right hand tight corners in 2nd gear at about 15mph there is a juddering/clonking noise coming from the vcu. I know that there can be issues with these and have also read that you can have strange noises etc in the drive chain...
