    Yes. the last time you want to be searching for it is when you have installed a new battery and you need the vehicle back on the road As a final aside, some other weird stuff also happened post new battery The trip counter forgot itself The clock is now wrong The tailgate window wiper was...

    Well to finish the story the dealer came back having emailed land rover and said _2311. STILL WRONG To summarise IF you have the Becker Traffic Pro BE 4765 and you have no code., 1/. Get the removal keys shown above 2/. Remove radio and look for serial number 3/. Join digitalkaos.co.uk and...

    Ok. I found a site 'digitalkaos.co.uk' which took longer to register than to come back with a code that worked! 22311.

    I've been back in touch with the dealer and they are contacting LR on my behalf. I will try the google trick

    Ok the 'Mercedes' keys got the unit out all right. However as you can see, the last 5 digits of the serial number do not fall within the range 1-7 that can be entered.. Anyone have any bright ideas? PS I tried 21473 and that didn't work either?

    Well given that there are only keys 1-7, it will in fact take only 7 attempts.. But do you actually know that I have 4 correct digits and only need a further one on the end? Or is it the beginning?

    I will get keys and try and remove it and read S/n. It truly is pathetic this coding business. Since once out of the car all it takes is the serial number its no barrier to theft at all.

    at least one other 'zone' user says the unit is removable with keys, and those look like key slots And 'mercedes keys fit'; and those keys are for mercedes You would have thought all this was simple well known stuff I agree, they should have given me a 5 digit key, but they didn't.

    For the record, here is a video that deals with replacing a similar Becker unit in a mercedes And it looks like hellfrauds have the correct key

    Oh another landyzone member said, 5 years ago about this unit: Now what are these keys looking like. I think they go in those slots

    Recoding Freelander1 Becker BE 4765 Traffic Pro Radio/Satnav - sorted

    Absolutely not It looks like this.. I am wondering if those slots at the base might do something towards removing it?

    1/. I don't care who knows what about the vehicle. Its not a Lamborghini :) 2/. According to the manual and the radio it is 5 digits. 3/. Entering the 4 supplied digit code does nothing :( 4/. Even the video that shows a radio being removed by stripping the console out takes more than 5...

    Freelander TD4 Black smoke!!!

    Yes. Its always good when you can actually definitively eliminate uncertainty and say 'yes that part is borked, and a new one will fix it!' I had a failing fuel pump for ages, that I used to fix by slamming the rear offside door. But of course I didn't want to take it to a garage whilst it was...

    Very odd. Radio wants a 5 digit code, but when I spoke to Land Rover dealer they gave me a 4 digit one here are me details... Registration No: MA54FUM Vehicle number : SALLNABE15A454138 Engine Number : 82425761 Radio code : 2311 - as supplied by land rover dealer They said take console...

    Yes., Its odd that mine failed twice in 5 years. But the garage that did it the first time I nearly sued. For fitting a brand new disk to a seized calliper.

    Freelander TD4 Black smoke!!!

    Its odd. One FL has had two replaced by me, the other that I am now running is well old and on the original I cant telly you how hard that one is to replace, but why do you think its that that has gone?

    Hmm. I dunno what that hose is. Thought it was a water hose.:( If you cant hear hissing it may not be a turbo hose at all. Duct tape will seal low pressure air hoses if they are not oily You won't damage the engine with anything except ingestion of bits of shattered turbo if that's gone by...
