My thought too, I think I will get a new or recon one before winter and put the prop back on and if no noise that was it and at £100-150 far better than I was expecting.

Prop off noise gone. There was a huge amount of grease splatted out from the front prop cv gaiter thing. I think this has caused the noise so need to get that replaced and try again. What is the bit at the end of the prop the connecting bolts go through just after the gaiter.

I'll keep you updated and get the prop off after the weekend. I doubt it is the bearings as I had Land Rover VCU and bearing fitted when I replaced these items 2 years ago. Thanks guys.

Been a while since I have been on here due to 18 months trouble free driving. However now have a grinding type noise from the front and I suspect IRD. VCU and bearing changed 2 years ago, all wheel bearing correct. If I remove front prop will this stop the noise and any further damage to...

With the weather change now found my new freelander boot leaks in the rain. The top of the roof lining by the tailgate is wet so leaking from top rubber. Anyone else had this and how to fix please.

I have 51 Td4 ES and now want to put an original stereo back in. I have an original stereo and have connected it the stereo speakers and steering controls all work. However I can not connect the balupunkt 10 disk player. The blue 13 pin square cd connector is to big to connect to the back of he...

Got the genuine Land Rover VCU feels miles better still a little wind up but nothing like before.

Looks like the specialist is right once all done full update on who was right and who and what was wrong hopefully help others out in same position.

Hope so thanks the comapny have agreed to refund but stated the vcu will be fine and it will be transfer box fault. I don't see that as no noise grinding vibrations etc.

Took it to main dealer today drove it in car park and stated they do wind up on tight turning but mine is excesive. Stated needed to check it but most likely vcu then told them it had only done 30 miles. Then stated £85 per to check fully so I left. Later had a visit to independant Land Rover...

I have changed VCU for new unit and it is no better?. What can it be then.

I had one for my MG ZTT cdti and it flew after and MPG incresed by 10MPG. Ordering one for my Td4 as same engine.

Sat here since posting that and starting to think I may have bought that VCU to soon just didn't want ird to go wrong. Thinking trip to Land Rover in morning and getting a mechanic to drive it and see if thats how it should be.

Hello just bough 51 reg Td4 Freelander ES driving into and out of parking spapces feels like brakes have applied. Reading bits on internet thought VCU failing or failed so had new one fitted and bearings. Still have the same problem so is this how these drive or is it IRD or rear diff or...
