Hi Andrew - I didn't do it myself, but my mate did outside my house with a trolly jack and 2 axle stands. Didn't seem too complicated to do, but then I wasn't the one on my back under the truck! Took about 15 minutes. The only issue was spinning the prop to get access to some of the nuts, as we...

Update on the rumbling. Prop came off yesterday and car is silent again. Rear of the two support bearings is shot. Planning to replace both, and I know to steer clear or britpart. Budget is limited and the gkns appear to be 40 to 50 a piece. Have seen some cheaper bearmach bearings, but not...

Have thought about the wheel bearings Skynet. My understanding is that they make more noise when corning, but its not something I have experience of! I have had her jacked up, but there was no play in the wheel, and no knocking or play when driving but the droning sound is similar to what I...

I've seen about the tyre diameters - Landy kindly put brand new tyres one the front, leaving the nearly worns on the rear when i bought her back in 2010. I had no idea of the problems that causes till i came across this place!

LOL, yep, I expect the UHP's will be on the list soon. the front scorps haven't got long left!

Out of interest, with the life of the VCU as mine is just shy of 70k, does that apply to the facelifts too? One of the threads I read was that as Landy changed the ratios (rear diff??) it prolonged them. This was something i mentioned to Landy when I took her into the dealers at Matford Exeter...

Thanks for the reply wljayne, hopefully it is something as simple as that, seemed a coincidence it started shortly after getting its feet wet. And I thought the doors were meant to fall off!!! - that I can cope with, not a noise I cannot find.... I think I have googled too much and paranoia is...

Cheers Nick, I've been searching most of the weekend, so picked up quite a bit, but still have questions! Apologies though If I have asked anything common.

Cheers Nickcc, I've have seen about the bearings, one of the things i'm pinning me hopes on as they are cheap - out of interest, should they get warm? The front bearing is warmer than the rear, which had me thinking that was the cause initially. My worry is that the VCU has gone and seized...

Yep Janner in a Gaylander... wasn't allowed a proper one! Thanks for the welcome!!

Hi all! I'm new here, but have used this site many-a-time for help and advice. Unfortunately have an issue that has got me stumped. Mines a 2005 Td4 SE, 68k, and since driving through some standing water last week, (not that deep), its making a new noise... I have been doing a few of the...

Hi all, I have been viewing this site for a while now, as owned my Freelander for nearly two years, but starting to get some niggles... which I will post about in the Freelander section. I just want to say thank you for the advice I have found on this site, which has been more than useful on...
