Hi gents, back with the good news that the car is now working fine. Really smooth shifts and no locking up for nearly a week now. A total cost of around £325, well chuffed. Ended up changing the speed sensor and all the solenoids. Could have chanced it and just renewed the ones we thought were a...

Cheers hippo, don't think anything fell out but an arm full of oil. It looked like your way of sticking it back on was the only way but just thought I would make sure. On me olidays abroad in west Wales now till a week on Monday, won't be doing anything else till then. By the way, took the...

:confused:Its me again, on the scrounge for a bit more of your specialist knowledge. Waiting for new solenoids so thought we would go after the speed sensor. Nodge69 thanks for the info about dropping the gearbox, Hippo, you were spot on with the picture. Made it easy to get to. Took it out...

Sorry nearly forgot thanks for the photoes Hippo.

Cheers, got more information than soft Mick now, thanks to all three of you. Given me a new reason to live. It only thumps in to gear every now and again so hopefully not done too much damage. Going down the workshop now to fix the problem in under 5 mins. Well maybe not. Will let you know how...

cheers

My freelander is a 2002 v6 with 46000 miles under its belt. It is thumping up and down a couple of gears. Can anyone give me any info on gearbox fault code 0715 (Input /Turbine speed sensor circuit). I know the sensor is in the gearbox. Can the gearbox be removed without the engine being...
