We're in Aberdeenshire (ie LOTS of snow!) and my freelanders been fab. Only thing that stopped it was my mums drive - vvvvvv steep and had approx 24, yes 24 inches of snow on it. Took two runs but made it!!

Hey, thats me. Right technical. Its obviously coz I'm a girl. My engineer hubby would murder me for being so unspecific.......:D

Yo! Did have a look on here at the suggestions to make it a bit easier, thanks. Was feeling a bit misled after checking out Haynes.....which said something along the lines of "unclip the undertray"!! A few spanners and an hour later it appears they were lying to me ha ha!!!!!

'Scuse me venting here, but who frickin designed the freelander???? Just did an oil change this weekend, the first since buying the motor. Whats with the amount of dismantling to access the drain plug?!?!?!?!?:crazy::wtf: Not to mention the £92 I was stung for two things of oil and a filter...

Heh heh. I had that weird experience too!!!! But...........I had a voucher for a FREE test!! So my MOT was nil, nada, nothing, nowt. Huzzah. :banana: x

Hey no probs. Happened to me recently, thought I'd be emptying my purse into the hands of the stealers until I read me haynes manual and had a think about it..........;) How'd you get on, did you try a master cylinder?

Oh! Meant to say master cylinder is a sealed for life unit therefore cannot bleed it. New units come with the fluid already in them so you just fit and drive! In a manner of speaking. ex

Hi! My 2003 TD4 had this problem......couldn't select first when pulling away and sometimes the pedal would stay down by the floor after changing gear. If I pulled the pedal back up with my foot it would work fine. For a bit anyway!!!! The prob was the master cylinder. The master cylinder...
