Hi Im new here. Hope all of you can be of assistance

I have a freelander, petrol driven. I seem to have a problem with it . Its a newer version.

since I brought it about 2 years ago . I have had to change the clutch 3 times. in fact I seem to have burnt it out . Considering I have been driving along time , and have never had this problem with other cars. Have I forgotten to drive, or have become lazy.

Thanks

Welcome to the forum,next time you have the clutch replaced,specify that you only want top quality parts to be fitted,not britpart or other poor quality parts.
