Whilst under the Freelander (06 TD4) I noticed some corrosion under the 'box' that is the opposite side of the propshaft to the fuel tank as shown on page 1B.5 of Haynes - but it does not say what this 'box' is. It has a sort of quilted effect that looks a bit like a heat cover above the...

Hi all, I have just broken the rear O/S mounting bracket for the side step on my 06 HSE. The vertical strap that bolts to the chassis at the outboard end has rotted and fallen apart. I have wired it up for now but will need to replace it (and maybe the others as they are probably of the same...

Thanks to all the brilliant advice I had from this site I put some injector cleaner through a tank of fuel and have used Redex and 2 stroke oil for a few tanks. Now, I don't know if I have had any benefit as I have done this since I had my 06 TD4 Freelander last year. I'm assuming some sort of...

Hi, This snow is the first time I have had to test my Freelander TD4 Auto. We live on a hill so in about 6" of snow my son's VW had to be pushed up the hill & into the drive. We had to go to Ledbury and back (70+) miles to collect grandchildren and had no problems at all. Just to play around I...

Hello, I should be picking up a 2006 Freelander TD4 HSE later this week. One mod I have seen is a remap of the chip or a stand-alone box made by Chip express. I have test-driven the car & compared to my 300 Disco it's quite lively. I just wondered if anyone has tried either mod and if they...

Hello all. I've just signed up. I have a 1995 Discovery 300 but am about to trade it in for a 2006 Freelander TD4. I'm a little bit nervous as I see posters in Freelander reviews that love their Freelander and posters who hate them! Reliability seems to be the issue. Let's hope I'm...
