Yes the tyre width and profile are identical on all 4 wheels it was just the last number which was different, but the guy at land rover said it shouldnt be on? I think i will replace it anyway as it is nearley illegal and yes it is on the rear, will get the bearings from foundry as you...

I am actually looking forward to the snow now! :clap2: Went to land rover this morning and one of the mechanics took it for a drive, the verdict was vcu is fine:) but both prop bearings should be replaced soon and the back passenger side tyre is different size, the rest are 103H at the end and...

Thanks for the advice and i am going to follow it up, had a search on the net and threre is a land rover service centre less than a mile away from where i live on a busy industrial estate so first thing tomorrow morning i am going in with it and get it booked in and have the vcu tested, dont...

Hi, no i never ended up taking the prop off as i am still driving my caddy so didnt want to use it untill i got it looked at, i might just take my chances with it, i only plan to keep it for a year so depends how bad the odds are of something happening in that time, thanks for the advice i will...

Took the freelander to 2 different garages today, the vibration noise has stopped?? First garage the guy took it for a drive and said all seemed ok, then he said he can feel something and was saying something about the gearbox diff? he said you can feel it when you knock the gears down, he said...

Was yours doing the same as mine vibrating at speed?

Just checked and the diff and both props are in place, there is another post called "bad vibration" which is the same problem i am having and they are all pointing to vcu, will take off the back prop and see if that stops the noise!:eek:

That happened as soon as i took the test drive it was the first time i have driven one and instantly thought "im buying this", been driving a vw caddy for the last 2 years and there is no comparison, the mpg is a lot better than i expected, drove it back from manchester to newcastle and cost £25...

Hi, mileage is at 74000 and no i didnt check the propshaft, first time i have owned a 4x4 so just checked what i would check on a car, never felt vibration on test drive and didnt realize i would have to be at speed to hear something, it dosent start until i hit 75

Just checked back on this post and never realized there were so many replies (been working my ba**s off so the idea of replacing my caddy was way in the distance), thanks everyone for all the advice much appreciated! Well i took the plunge today and ended up buying one, i was originally after...
