Good Idea, I'm at Blaydon in Gateshead, Tyne & Wear. If anyone has any recommendation's.

Wow!! Thank you very much for all of this, Ill let you know how I get on!

I've just spoken to the garage, they have confirmed it is item 1. They have said they may have to remove the drive shafts to be able to lower the sub frame, this is what makes it a bigger job? They even said that they may have to remove the fuel tank! Any thoughts on this? I don't have a vehicle...

Thank you Graculus for all of this, Ill let you know how I get on, ringing them tomorrow.

Thanks for that, you are the Oracle!!! Would you say either of these would involve dropping the sub frame? I am going to get them to confirm what they were going to do. Its starting to sound a bit suspicious.

Thanks Graculus, Thats very interesting,they are really bust at the moment. They said a rear coolant pipe which is used for the rear heating. I was thinking of having a go myself, it was just when they mentioned dropping the sub frame.

Ive been told by the garage that has just done the mot that its a massive job, you have to drop the subframe? The engine is the V8 diesel 4.4l. Thanks for the replies.

Just been informed that the rear coolant cross over pipe is leaking, has anyone had any experience of this? Is it a big job cost wise, or could I do it myself?

Cheers Kermit, the auto start stop dosent always work either and ive been told thats down to the battery, not that im bothered about auto stop start!!

Unusual problem with seats, starting to think the car is possessed. When you try to lower rear seats on the drivers side, the drivers front seat folds forward also. The rear wont come back up unless you take it all the way forward. It only does it on the drivers side. Any ideas or if anyone has...

This sounds like the same problem I had , I let the garage fix it when it went in for a service and it cost about £100. When I got a look at the old linkage that had come off, I could have easily been welded it. So beware of garages who dont like to get there hands dirty and throw new parts at...

Does anyone know anything about these warrantys. I have been told that because the last service was not done at a land rover dealer, the anti corrosion warranty is void. Seems a bit of con to me.

I have just bought a 05 90, does anyone know if you can fit the cold climate option as a after sales. I think it includes the heated seats and the heated front windscreen. I know im a soft sh## but I would rather be a warm soft sh##.

Thanks for your advice, searched rest of forum as mentioned and everything points to the cam sensor, will also clean the earth up today, will let you know how I got on Thanks again for your advice.

Just bought a w reg petrol freelander and it has started having starting problems 1. It will start from cold no problem if you stop it and try to start it again it will not turn over. 2. If left for about half a day it will start no problem. 3. Have fitted new battery. Dont know what else to...
