I have a 1.8XEI 2000 Freelander, bought it 6 months ago.
4 weeks ago it wouldn't start one morning. Would turn over, but it was like it wasn't getting any petrol. Rang the garage, they said they would send out a tow truck. It took a while to come, so i was trying to start it every so often. After a while, about 1.5 hours. It just started, now the sun was out and it had heated up. Brought it to the garage anyways, they couldn't find a problem. This happened again the following day i got it back. Didn't work for the whole weekend then, as it was raining the whole time.
The following monday garage came out and picked it up. Looked at it and dried the plug and leads, started fine then. Took it home, next day same thing. wouldn't start. Now the night was dry, so it definitey wasn't rain.
Garage towed it in, didn't work for them, they said they were getting an error on their computers, a crank angle sensor. They replaced that, and were confident that was the problem.
Next day, didn't start again.... its been in the garage for 2 weeks now and they can't find a fault... Anyone come accross this before?
It's under warranty, and i feel they just dont want to spend money replacing plarts.
