I’ve finally taken the plunge and let my old 57 plate FL2 XS go and the new 14 plate FL2 is on its way, we were finding the 57 plate a bit expensive to run and it’s started to look a little long in the tooth but it has been a superb car, it probably won’t make a massive difference but changing...

I have for sale a front sump guard or sometimes referred to as a bash plate for the Freelander 2 model years 06-10, it’s exactly the same as the old Mantec guard which is no longer available, its manufactured by Flatdog UK and is made from 8mm Aluminium and finished in metallic silver, the...

Just wondering what the very skilled mechanics amongst us think about this, I’ve watched this oil catch can video a few times now but no one who seems to know FL2s inside out is commenting n his video, it’s seems miraculous from the video he’s done 3000 miles and the catch can is full of dirty...

Hi All and a happy new year to you all, just wondered if anyone had experienced this, I have a late 2007 FL2 and it’s developed a rattle from the engine bay on start up, the rattle stays for a bit whilst idling but after about 2 mins just disappears, I popped the bonnet and it seems to be coming...

Hi all, got a general opinion question for everyone, I currently have a late 2007 FL2 Xs and have seen advertised locally a 2013 FL2 I really like the look of, also an XS, i know all the failure points of the pre facelift FL2 but I’m lead to believe most of these got resolved when they brought...

Hi All, I have a pre facelift Freelander 2 with the Alpine Sound System, I decided to remove the existing head unit which only has the 1 CD function and replace it with the 6 CD unit which is identical in every way except the amount of CDs you can feed in, all connections on back match, fibre...

Hi all, I don’t know if other people have the same trouble as me but I find Land Rover Parts codes really frustrating, there seems to be a sort of in house coding system and then a retail coding system, quite often you’ll find an exploded diagram with the part you’re looking for but the code...

Hi All, I’ve recently been experiencing a very strong smell of Diesel, not diesel smoke but diesel fuel inside the cab when I put the Aircon on, it’s always after the vehicle has sat for a few days and always from a cold start, when the Aircon fires up the smell of diesel is really strong for...

Hi All, just wondering if someone could clear something up for good, I recently read a pretty old thread asking the question of can FL2 with their Haldex setup suffer from transmission wind up and it caught my attention because occasionally I like to drive short distances with Sand Mode selected...

Hi all, just a general question about changing the Tyres on my FL2, I currently have 18 inch wheels on with road tyres but have just bought a set of used 17 inch LR Factory alloys and plan to fit Insa Turbo Ranger all terrain tyres on just for winter use, just wondered if anyone has had a...

Hi all, haven’t posted in a while, hope everyone is safe, this might end up being the stupidest question in the world but I recently had my Haldex pump serviced on my 2007 FL2 and they said the pump was seized and I needed a new one, ouch not cheap, they said if the pump isn’t getting used then...

Help, I know this topic has been done before but I’m starting to feel like it’s beyond help, so I had the classic puddle in the boot which we know is the foam gasket around the tail gate stop light so I replaced the whole fitting with a genuine new part, it worked for a bit and then once again...

Hi All, I’m new to the site and can’t believe I haven’t joined sooner, lots of interesting threads, I was wondering the difference between oil specifications, back in the summer I changed my engine oil and Halfords had a good deal on Castrol Magnatec 5/30 it said on the back it was suitable for...
