Freelander 1 Three Amigos - when uphill accelerating

Hi All,

seems to be the time of the three amigos.
Had a short paragraph written here, but thought to open it up, though I've read the others through and some more: Freelander 1 - 3 Amigos Fault HELP! | LandyZone - Land Rover Forum
Haven't seen those lights for a while (some 5 years I guess) and wasn't fond of, but this morning when driving uphill and accelerating they came. While accelerating uphill the lights came up with shaking/rattling. Thought actually that would be gone with changing the left drive shaft, but back it is.
Nodge68 mentioned something above, that the shaking could be from the inner CV joint. Could it be dead as the left one was changed and now is more pressure on the right?

Was it a genuine GKN replacement drive shaft?
Cheap non GKN shafts are known to ware fast, and vibrate under load, some vibrate from the moment they're fitted, so GKN shafts only should be fitted.

Can't tell to be honest. Asked the garage to get the manufacturer three times now, but didn't get anything back on it so far. As it was Bosch Garage usually they use good quality stuff, but will better try to find out again.

My wife drove it around in the city this afternoon and said it would lack power uphill again or it'd be the RH one now.

Here is a comparison between old and new drive shaft:

Hello Nodge68, got a response now. It shall be Q-Drive, never heard of that so hopefully it'll be ok.

Three amigos turned out to be the ABS sensor wiring, which was faulty and got fixed. They haven't checked the right drive shaft and the creaking noise though.
