I did say I would get back to you.... its been back on the road a week now and its amazing, all the rumble that I thought may be Haldex has gone, drive is silent and smooth. My DMF was in quite a bad state and the thrust/slave cylinder destroyed so I'm inclined to think DMF my be your issue...

Movement of the pressure plate I assume...The springs chew away at the thrust surface it would seem, the result is enormous once it starts..

I just posted this a few minutes ago... dont know but it sounds familiar to me.. I'll know more in a couple of days.. https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/freelander-2-clutch-failure.313890/

So I've just crossed Europe to Poland without a hitch, second time the FL2 has done this run with me but on Wednesday, in city traffic I put my foot on the clutch and it went to the floor... Oh ****, but as it was driving I managed to get to the side of the road, lucky as Warsaw is unforgiving...

Absolutely love mine.. even though its just broken down for the first time..

After six Landrover free years, six years of trying to justify to the wife my idea of a car for "fun" she has finaly (partly) relented with a compramise, A "decent" (as she puts it) Landy for family use.. So here we are back again with a newish Freelander 2... And loving it.. I'M Back.. :D

Just had a general look over, oil water etc ready for Sunday's trial at Cleeve Hill

Agreed.... are you sure its the wheel bearing and not the swivel, either way i think a bearing is gone. dirty hands time.. :)

Doesn't inflation create dents??? :doh: In the wallet..... :hysterically_laughi

Contary to popular opinion these were not built just to take the kids to school and will cope with serious off roading without modificaion, save for tyres maybe. Unless you're going into competition i would say you already have all you need, except maybe, A MATE... Its never a good idea to go...

Hiya Here is a picture of my Disco slithering over a slipery brow in the MROC RTV Trial on 15 March. The photo is reproduced from the April MROC Journal

No, you are right, just advisory.. but i'll do it before next year..

When you push it is it normal? I'm wondering if something has caused it to put too much pressure on the plastic thingy... Next thought, could you substitute a bolt for the plastic thingy somehow..

Another thing to look at, is there play in the UJ that turns the box. I wish you were closer, I'd have the old box off you. My "NEW" ebay one is leaking already, now I'm resealing my old one.. Did you see me pics?

Its just the same for any box, the smallest possible slack spot at the centre of travel... Whats up with yer old un, just leaking?

I guess you will make it fit but its intended for a two inch shorter wheelbase, somewhere you will have to make this up. Why dont you use a 90 body?

You need to keep a slack spot, but the smallest possible.. very fine "feel"

Lucky you... feels good tho...

you're gonna be busy... Make sure you fit the plastic clip for the pushrod onto the clutch arm before you put the box on, its friggin murder to do after... (another thread of mine LOL)

:doh: I cant spell steering.. I've stripped my old steering box with a view to resealing it and putting it back on. Anyone interested in what a disco steering box looks like in bits... First is the drop arm shaft. 2nd shows the type of wear that causes the box to leak, this one is...
