My TD4 Auto (covered 89,500 miles) has developed a medium vibration through car when takes 3rd gear. Slight noise as well. Happens if engine speed around 1500 to 1800 rpm. If you keep accelerating it seems to clear. Worse if you are on gentle, constant power holding the rpm around the above...

Hi, Trying to find a horrible metalic chattering sound coming from under car when going over uneven road surfaces. It just takes minor ripples in the road to make it chatter - full length speed humps just makes it worse and louder. Sounds like a loose heat shield as it is a tinny metal...

Hi, My Freelander 2004 TD4 auto had whole exhaust changed yesterday. I now have a strange wooshing air sound when accelerating. Accelerate a little firmly and it starts and as you ease off it stops gradually as the power reduces. Although no actual extra air is being forced out of any of the...

My TD4 tries to cut out about 7 seconds after engine start. If you apply throttle just as it starts to falter it keeps running no problem. It only does this when engine is neither stone cold or up to temp. (eg driven 6 miles in morning, left all day and then re started to go home). It used to...

Hi, I have had both front suspension coil springs replaced on my 04 Freelander 1 after a cracked spring. Do I need to get the car tracking checked? Will a simple tracking check be ok or should I get a more expensive four wheel laser alignment done? Many thanks

Can someone explain what the turbo vent filter is actually for? Thanks

Hi Re my 53 plate Frelander TD4. I have a slight knock coming from under the front near side when going over bumps. Can be very slight bumps that cause it. It was at the garage yesterday on the ramps - the only thing they could find was a very slight play in the steering rack. Everything else...

I would like some advice on the auto gearbox please. My car has done 75000 miles and is now 11 years old. It is serviced once a year by a general, non specialist garage. We have owned it since 2010. I believe the auto gearbox oil should have been changed at 60000 miles/5 years. Is that...

Hi, My TD4 auto (2004) is returning about 18 mpg on town driving. I know it is extremely cold etc but the hand book quotes 25mpg. Is there something wrong? I may have a thermostat problem causing the engine to run at a lower temp than normal. Maybe this is effecting fuel? Any comments...

Hi, My 2003 Freelander TD4 sometimes seems to lack power. It seems to only happen when cold although not 100% sure about this. It is also only temporary and clears itself. I can still hear the turbo working when this occurs. It just feels quite unresponsive although if you really press the...

Hi, I have recently bought a 2003 Freelander TD4 2 litre diesel. I may have an issue with the engine temperature. According to the temp gauge, it is warming up from cold fairly quickly but only to about 3/4 of fully warm. I believe once at normal operating temp the gauge should sit in the...
