Hi there,
new forum member - X-pat living in Switzerland.

I need some help - hope I have come to the right place!

My Freelander went in for its MOT yesterday and failed on 1 point.

The gear leaver has to much play in it. I hope I'm supplying enough info...Please ask if not.

The Haynes manual doesnt help.

Can anyone give me some advise on what parts I need to get and advise on the fitting.

Many thanks

Hello and welcome to the forums,

Try posting your question in the freelander section, you may get a quicker reply there

Welcome Jeremy.

Try section 9.14 of the Haynes Manual, "Handbrake - check and adjustment."

Cheers

Hi Blippi,Im now somewhat confused.....9-15 in the Haynes is about breaking system.....unless I or you have different haynes manuals......I'm on about the gear leaver...and what I have learnt in the between time its something to do witht the rod assembly-change and bushes.......Any suggestions?CheersJeremy

No, you are correct. I read your original post too quickly and thought you were on about the hand brake!

Adjusting the handbrake will have little effect on the gear knob!

Sorry!

Cheers
