Hi Everyone
New guy here. we've just bought a 2000 Freelander diesel. So I thought I'd have a read through the archives and see whats what! I wish I hadn't now, it makes for depressing reading doesn't it! I gather I can look forward to replacing the complete drive train in the not too distant future!
Well the Wife and I have wanted one of these for ages and finally took the plunge and bought one. We love the car so far, but there is a definite bearing noise coming from the back. I assumed it was just a wheel bearing, but now I gather it may be one of many things! I do hope I haven't bought myself a pup?
So i've decided to get her up in the air (car not wife) and have a good check round of pads/shoes/fluid levels etc. Any tips or "must dos" whilst I'm going over her? Any advice gratefully recieved unless it involves petrol and bryant & mays products.
