Having greased the bracket, I have not experienced any more problems so worth a try!

Having paid a visit to the stealer, after a drive round the block they advised the diff would need to be replaced and quoted big $$$s. I took it to my local mechanic to get a second opinion; he put it up on the hoist but couldn't replicate the problem, even when slowing one rear wheel and then...

Hi there, My 2002 Freelander TD4 has suddenly developed a grinding noise when turning/cornering which makes me suspect a problem with the rear diff or drivetrain. Traveling in a straight line is fine, but more than a 30 degree turn/corner generates a grinding noise from somewhere in the back...

Evening all, I have a 2002 TD4 Freelander that will sometimes turnover but refuse to start. Seems to be a problem with the fuel pump as wiggling the intake hose on top of the pump prompts this into action. Has anyone experienced this before and if so is it an intermitment problem or something...

Hi there, While y'all in the northern hemisphere may be contemplating long summer days stuck in traffic jams on the way to the beach, here in NZ I am eagerly awaiting the start of the ski season. I was therefore somewhat bemused to read in my Freelander's owners manual that only LR approved...

Thanks for your help everyone. Having hosed the engine down, the LD mechanic phoned to say that the catch that secures the dipstick had broken off, leaving a small hole on the dipstick housing through which the oil spewed directly onto the fan and thence all over the engine. I have yet to pick...

Hi gang, Became a member of the Freelander club at the beginning of the month (motto: never again buy a car on 1 April!) and have struck problems already. After a couple of weeks, experienced loss of power at 100kmph (c.70mph). Got it going but same thing happened again shortly after at which...
