No real issues, the transmission seems to move through the gears with no problem. Just felt that I may keep this car for quite a while and thought a service now would keep the transmission in good order. I do have a query about recommended ATF changes, the local Landy Dealer Service says 100K...

Hi, I have a 2015 Discovery Sport 2.2 with ZF9HP48 9-speed transmission. The car has 55K miles on the clock and is going well, however, I am now considering an ATF flush on the transmission. On my previous Freelander 2 I did a series of about 3 quick flushes to dilute the current ATF and...

We have owned our 2007 FL2 TD4 now for just over a year and are highly delighted with it so far. However, I do have one question for which I would be appreciative of Members comments. In all that time we have hardly touched the various 'All Terrain Options' and have stayed in the basic setting...

My wifes Freelander 2 (95K miles) has been running superbly but its been taking its time starting up first thing in the really cold weather (3 deg.C and below). Usually it will fire up in about 1- 1.5 secs. but on the really cold mornings it can take abot 4-5 secs and then very lumpy running for...

Thanks for your responses. I have since discovered the dual zone construction of the window and sure enough the passenger side fuse (F34) was blown. I have had to order a new fuse online since they are of a special design (JCASE low profile) so I do not yet know whether its just a random fuse...

The recent cold spell has been the first time I have had an opportunity to test the performance of the heated front screen facility. Started the car this morning which had a good layer of frost on the front and rear screens, the rear screen defrosted fine but the front screen only defrosted in...

Thanks for all the replies, its a 2007 Freelander 2 with red metallic paint.

I searched in vain around the body of the car for Paint Colour Code identifier and cannot locate it anywhere, can anyone point me in the right direction ??

False alarm, found out I had to leave the ignition active after inserting the DVD and then leave it in this state for about 15 mins before it re-activated. Also found out that a SatNav DVD from my Jaguar XF (2 years newer) successfully loaded into the Freelander 2 system since both are Denso...

Can anyone advise, I removed the SatNav DVD to check on the dates of the mapping system. When re-inserted I have lost the whole touch screen function which only displays the Landrover logo and will not show anything else (ie Navigation and Preferences selection). Is there a special procedure for...

Thanks for all the responses so far (please keep them coming). I certainly haven't seen any further signs of oil in the Header tank in the last 1000 miles so hopefully it may be just an unaccountable mystery. I plan to do a coolant system flush using the Forte Bio-Degreaser solution so anyone...

Gentlemen, I have recently purchase a 2007 Freelander 2 (96K miles) and so far it has been going like a dream. When I purchased the car (for my wife) I went through it with a fine tooth comb and drove it extensively but I missed one trivial inspection, I didn't remove the cap from the Coolant...

As a new owner of the Freelander 2 I have been reading the manual about the Terrain Response selection modes. Can anyone confirm whether the basic setting (General Response mode) is just front wheel drive only with no 4-wheel traction at any time whilst in this mode. The User Manual description...

t4van, Thanks for the response, can you elaborate on the location of the cooler unit and whether there is a quick way to check this problem out

Just picked up my wifes Freelander 2 (2007) and the car drives like a dream. However when going through the 'under bonnet' checks I noticed a slight layer of oil on top of the coolant. I have removed the tank and cleaned everything out so I can keep an eye on it but does anyone know where the...

Does anyone know whether the Freelander 2.2 that has SatNav built in has an additional input to the Touch Screen display that would support a direct connection to a Rear view CCD camera

I am currently looking at buying a FL2 (2007/2008 vintage) and have been dismayed by the apparent number of reported failures with the rear differential unit pinion bearing. I will clearly checked the unit out for this current problem but on the assumption I may encounter it after purchasing the...

I am about to take delivery of a 2006 Freelander TD4 and plan to boost performance by adding a tuning box but I am confused by the number of devices out there making identical claims in terms of fitment and performance/economy improvement. The problem is which box and which price. They seem to...

I am looking to purchase a 2006 Freelander HSE TD4 automatic(pre-Freelander 2), can anyone tell me whether this model had Cruise Control fitted as a standard or was it an option.
