FIRST WARNING in my case I did not need to use much force to release a reluctant key fob from the dashboard dock -it was just a question of pushing and wobbling it. Advice on the website of a Land Rover agent indicated that release problems could eventually lead to the security system kicking...

Great help here - thanks. My tailgate lock issue is with a 2009 model and it started with a not fully locked warning and my partner rushed out and pushed the closed tailgate! That enabled locking but perhaps has pushed any obstruction to be more firmly embedded! Tried some of the solutions...

I did not expect the rear differential of my Freelander 2 to fail and posted this question on Quora https://www.quora.com/What-expensive-repairs-should-be-expected-in-a-nine-year-old-Freelander-2-that-has-only-done-39000-miles-with-only-rare-cross-country-use/answer/Vic-Sullivan-1 I have...

I run on automatic light switch setting and the first time the ABS warning light set came up I was able to cancel the signal by setting the master light switch to manual. Was this just a coincidence or does it verify your findings?

Hello from a newbie! Delighted to have found this discussion through Google. My vehicle is an October 2009 TD4 HSE Auto and it seems Landrover have not really taken on board the need to eliminate these long standing false system failure alerts. DISGRACEFUL Do not mind a false ABS warning...
