    Freelander 2 (LR2) Clunking/catching/knocking noise

    No, I got my car fixer man to check everything but he couldn't find anything wrong with it. Even had new brakepads But interestingly when I have my car jack washed, for about half an hour after it doesn't do it so I'm thinking its just a simple lack of lubrication somewhere maybe?

    Freelander 2 (LR2) Clunking/catching/knocking noise

    I have read a fair bit about this and these seem to be pretty much the answers I find but what I'm trying to understand is if it's anything to do with the calipers then why would you only hear the noises when turning the wheel? And if it was anything to do with the drive shaft and attachments...

    Freelander 2 (LR2) Steering unresolved

    When I say second hand, I mean very likely from the small landrover grave yard they had out back but your theory is also exceptionally possible...I wouldn't put anything past them - dirty dealers!

    Freelander 2 (LR2) Clunking/catching/knocking noise

    Hello guys, I have a funny noise when I'm turning wheel full or half when braking and turning wheel at the same time. The noise is like metal catching/clicking fairly loudly almost at every half turn of the steering wheel in either direction, coming from the front of the car, I think from the...

    Freelander 2 (LR2) Steering unresolved

    Finally resolved and it turns out that the garage I went to initially to change the pump totally ripped me off in telling me they replaced it with new, ended up actually only being second hand. We live and we learn!

    Ac only cooking when drive

    Hello to anyone who can help, My AC only cools when I'm driving along. When in very slow to standstill traffic or sat at junction or lights it stops cooling. When I'm at a standstill I try to push on the acceleration but it makes no difference. Does anyone have any idea what could be wrong...

    Freelander 2 (LR2) Steering unresolved

    The engine revs don't seem to change other than the usual coming down in gear. I don't feel any unusual with that. Other sugesstions I don't think have been checked. Just an every day garage that deals with many types of cars

    Freelander 2 (LR2) Steering unresolved

    I came into a u-turn fast and had to apply my brakes for the duration of the turn and couldn't make the because I couldn't turn my wheel - this is not normal for any car, same for round about or sharp bend.

    Power steering box freelander 2

    Ok so not long after this post and insidently just after I went to collect a new reservoir, my car sprung and extensive leak of power steering fluid. It was found to be coming from the steering rack. They tried to fix the seals but were unsuccessful. New steering rack was ordered and replaced as...

    Freelander 2 (LR2) Steering unresolved

    so pretty much every thing to do with my steering has been replaced, steering rack, steering pump, and reservoir and flushed many times, but stiffness in steering when stopped, foot on the break and turning the wheel will not seem to go away. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated...

    Power steering box freelander 2

    This is one thing I keep asking for as have read it many times but there seem to be somewhat a reluctance to do so from my car fixer. Grrrr!

    Power steering box freelander 2

    Thank you for your reply. I had a feeling it didn't. Maybe I have to check back with him, incase he meant the steering rack instead. The problem I have been having is heavy steering but very intermittently. So intermittent that when I first took it to the garage they said they couldn't find...

    Power steering box freelander 2

    hello, my garage told me that my steering box is broken. I have searched high and low on the internet to find more out about this just so I can have an understanding. But I seem to have no luck finding anything about a steering box for this car in particular, only steering racks and pumps. Does...

    AC Issues

    Hello and thank you :-) I bought it about a year ago, second hand private sale, no warranty unfortunately. it was fully serviced, ac too, just before I bought it. Since then, admittedly I haven't had a chance to have it re-serviced as when I find the money to something big tends to go on it and...

    AC Issues

    Hi People, I have a LR2 2008. My AC stopped working recently, was just blowing hot air. I have taken it to a local garage and they reckon I need a new heater cooler, evaporator and expansion valve. Now whilst these parts are reasonably priced apparently to fit them, the whole dash board needs...
