Seen it last night and thought it looks a more natural upgrade to a disco 4 rather than the 5 but not a defender. Very expensive for what it is and tbh was a bit underwhelmed. Going to get deposit back and wait to see Jim Radcliffe's motor.

What to check everything between the front and rear bumper lol. Problems I've had replacement egr, throttle body and steering rack (apparently quite common as the top seal leaks)

Oh well looks like JLR have made up my mind for me. If there is no pickup will probably go for the raptor, trouble is that Ford dealers in my view are as much use as a chocolate fire guard especially with after sales service.

I put down a deposit as dealer was confident that there would be a pick up, going by the press doesn't look like there will be. Definitely missing a trick as no pick up don't want it. I know a few people who think the same.

Full diagnostics done at main dealer no codes, throttle body changed as they said that was the problem. Driving great now so hopefully that's the end of the problem.

Air flow sensor done and regenerative, still the same

Been told it's the air flow sensor 100% but no guarantee that is the problem lol, wish I could have that get out of jail card in my job. We will see.

Drove 70 miles no issues, stopped at traffic lights and power just died, managed to nurse it up to a steady 50 and 5 miles later back to normal, plenty power and acceleration, drove home 70 miles with no problem and left it idling for 10 minutes and got lpss of power, shut engine down and opened...

Oil was checked and in good condition, its booked back in on Monday and getting them to check gearbox fluid and cooling. If not that going to get them to get it onto local JLR computer as I will be away. Tbh I would like the gearbox flushed and filter changed so will take to them about that...

Tried again but now gutless when selecting gear, funny tried car today left it to idle for 15 mins then went for a run, heavy rain and splashed through a couple of puddles and weirdly full power was restored, pulled in and pulled away no problem. I have been scouring evoque forums aswell and...

Ok tonight I had same problem, put the gearbox in sport, selected first and used the gears manually and accelerated away from junction and up through gears no problem, put it back in normal drive and gutless tried gears again no problem so will speak to garage and see if oil flush will help...

Egr replaced but not the problem. No codes, car goes great hot or cold until stopped or in very slow traffic then absolutely useless no power at all. Local garage, JLR garage and specialist stumped. Surely if it goes so well it can't be major. If it happens pull over let it cool for 30 mins then...

Ok Freelander in Garage, they suspect egr valve, they informed me that egr works when engine cool but when left to idle with bonnet shut to build up heat and the problem manifests itself the egr fails. The garage also spoke with the local LR dealer who diagnosed a failing egr. Will keep you...

Any results on the problem yet. Davie

I have identical problem. Away on holiday at the moment but getting it looked at when I get home. Mate had a problem with the fuel pressure sensor and has been suggested on here to look st the throttle position pot. Please post on here if you resolve this problem. If my one gets sorted I will...

Ok thanks for that, just seems weird that only does it after sitting stationary for a while almost like overheating and going into limp mode but temp gauge steady and fans work. Will look into your diagnosis, will get reader from my local garage and see if it reads anything whilst out on a run.

Sorry 13 plate freelander 2 auto

Hi All, Have looked at similar threads but still have problem. Runs great until the vehicle idled for a while like stuck in traffic then there is no power, pulling out from a junction is dangerous then as soon as been cruising for a short while everything back to normal. Just been...

Ha ha thought the Evoque had taken the hair dryer title now lol.
