I understand you to say that the gears in the rear end will still be attempting to function and should they fail completely bad things could happen?

The so called "Mechanic" says "I do not understand call me", What should I tell him that should not have been evident in the months that he had the auto as a daily driver around town? $3800 for a 2005 Freelander 1 with 133,000 miles. Man! that a good deal. I want a Jeep CJ but the non rust...

Thank you for your response. How would one achieve a front wheel drive in a manner that would allow for a fix when a salvage vehicle could be found reasonably in cost? I would really value your response.

Sorry for the delayed response A fine mist of axle grease covered the rear corner of the vehicle. Inspection of the pionion showed loose metal shavings. Mechanic could not get the exact rear end. Seems there might be 2 ratio's used. Need to take off rear end and count teeth. $600 for parts...

Bad rear end Why don't I just turn it into a front wheel drive.

Freelander, I ordered one online $40. Thank you

Thank you. After posting this thread I did come across some threads that had very complicated instructions on how to recalibrate the window. It sounded like this has been attempted.

a local mechanic has been working on the rear window will go down but will not go up. He suggested I take it to the dealership and ask if they can perform the "relearn" function on the computer Anyone familiar with this "relearning"?

Need a front left fog light bezel.

Same problem here the smaller of the back seats will fold up and forward but the larger side is stuck. I can see a bent slide on the bottom inside of the larger back seat, it appears that a post is suppose to follow the slide and pull to unlock that side of the back seat. Hot Damn, I figured...

I'm going to have to read up on how to change oil filter, it sure looks like the shield would have to come off?

The dealership quoted a separate $1400 for the tensioner. But after ready thru the LandyZone and finding very few comments suggesting replacing this as routine maintenance, I'm going to believe it is fine.

2005 Freelander 1 with 133,000 miles that we feel is a very exiting auto to drive. I'm going to have the 3 belts one of which is the timing belt replaced. I understand that this needs to be done every 75,000 miles? Mechanic #1(import specialist) says he doesn't have tools tell me I will have to...

No scrap yards found yet. I will be contacting a Freelander group about 5 hours away in Oklahoma about locating parts. There are Freelanders thru craigslist for under $3000. My Freelander is for my daughter going off to college, with hopes of taking it to the Rocky Mountains some day. When I...

Thank you for the quick response The diagram both of you supplied is exactly what I was looking for I did find the link below before asking the question. I'm still a bit confused why it does not show the middle piece that the link you provided does Also the $900 quote i received before this...

Where do I find this shield that is missing in the photo? I received a crazy expensive price from one mechanic.

I also have this problem maybe worse. Rear window is a low priority to get fixed. $600. My window is not closed entirely but good enough to keep rain out.

Bought a 2005 Freelander a few months back. I've been reading up on them. I have a few questions. Not sure where to begin in order to get specific answers. Taking it to Kansas City next week to have belts replaced.
