Swore at it, disconnected the battery removed the gearbox ECU left for an hour and no change in behavior. Read about how to examine solenoids on here and have had a look. The bits are going to come off once I have priced up parts and had confirmation from some one that has done this. Please help!!!

Fingers cross
Hope it works well for you this time.I got back from another overnight in Twizel yesterday evening. The Freelander performed fantastically again - and I had to give it a bit of wellie on the way down there as well. We were running late and my son wanted to stop off at Hunting & Fishing in Ashburton - with a deadline of 7PM for the reception closing at the High Country Lodge. Pulled up at 6:57PM
Another glorious day in MacKenzie Country. Sunrise in Twizel was fantastic....

No, its a "Bloody hell how much?!" service!
It's the 96k service, which is the most expensive service in the schedule. (circa £920 at main dealer)

finally fitted my S/S back box, old bolt didn't want to play ball so cut it off. old box not as badly rusted as I feared. new box went on no problem. tucks up out of the way.
Fitted my h&r wheel spacers to the wife's hse. Showed the wife and 6 year old daughter how to change front pads and disks. The little one likes helping me and getting her hands dirty and apart from strength issues is actually quite helpfull

Moved the drivers window switch back to its existing place on the handbrake console.
Ioved it to under the heater dials as it felt more comfortable to use there but then I realised I couldn't raise both windows at the same time with one hand!
So I've put it back where it was!!

Pretty much anything you can think of, every oil, every filter, and loads of other stuff.
