Again, thanks for the replies chaps. 2001 TD4 softback by the way. I phone a clutch centre and they said they would do it for £400 ish. I havent got any quotes from local firms yet, and not likely to now for the next two weeks as I am away. The dual mass flywheel I gather is about £500. The...

Thanks for the reply. Sorry for earlier offending everyone. Is it an expensive job?

Ah sorry.. I do quite like it actually, and am looking for a repair. Was hoping to get a bit of advice, and lead me in the right direction. I am suspecting the clutch, but it has no sign of slipping, just the judder.

my FREElander is juddering. Once in gear it is fine, but especially at low speeds, it is horrible. It started like this when I was reversing the caravan.. a few tight locks, next thing, horrible clutch burning smell. I was hoping it was the VCU side of things, so I removed the prop shaft. It...

Something judders.. but it appears to be at the back of the car. The clutch pedal seems to have gone down a few inches.. only driven it a couple of miles, and apart from the judder at the back.. and some squeaky noises (brakes are suspect) it seems to drive ok ish.

Next job when I get to the car (I am away from it for 2 weeks) is to remove the prop and vcu. I will let you know what is happening then. Thanks for the replies Nodge and James. Rob

Oh dear.. Expensive then? Would it be better to de- 4WD it? Cheaper at least?

I drove my 2001 TD4 with a caravan the other day, all fine until the reversing. I had to get it in between some trees so I needed to do some full locks and reversing. I know even on it's own, full lock seems to have a resistance when driving or reversing. Anyway, I got the caravan to where I...

Hi est51. I am the poor sod stuck in Sweden lol I am sorted now. I ordered 2 keys, one from Sweden LR and one from UK LR. The UK one came first, £56.. and didn't need programming. The Swedish one came second also pre-programmed, but double the price, £130 ish. These are without a blip tho...

Thanks Kev... yes I have. Didn't realise it at first. Was a credit card insurance. so hopefully they will pay out.

Don't think so:confused2:

Oh thats 1200 swedish by the way..£120 ish.. and, it is covered by an insurance from my credit card. Bit of an inconvenience, but not as major as I first thought. thanks for the replies from the genuine people.

Thanks.. I know it does this, but where the gaylander is parked is in a public place and I would not be able to close the bugger back up, so I will wait for my key. I ordered two. One from England and one from Sweden, UK one has arrived and is in the post from UK to Sweden. Oh to goonarmy...

Thanks for some of the replies.. Yes I agree the cancer part was a bit harsh, I am sorry, it was the straw that broke the camels back, and I snapped. Again I appologize. As I said, I am stuck here and slightly desperate, came for advice and it was one joke after another.. finally I blew, Sorry...

My sentiments exactly.. I am in a situation here, and people think its funny to come up with thier wise cracks.. Well do me a favour, if you haven't anything serious to input to this thread, then don't bother..

Thanks for the sensible reply. It is just a simple key, turn the lock to get in. I have been trying to contact local dealers and locksmith but going up dead ends.. and being a weekend, the swedes are mostly not working. I have my log book and passport. Not sure about security pass number tho...

Thats not even funny,********************####

haha, some cracking answers, and I would laugh for real if I was not desperate. Would a landrover or BMW dealer be able to sort a key out?

Lost my key! My only key... And I and my freelander are in Sweden. What is the best course of action?

:praise: Thanks skynet.. a lot of great info there, will try that tomorrow hopefully. -10C here at the moment! brrrrrr! well the missus will
