I'm the (unlucky) new owner of 2004 Freelander TD4. Bought 9th November and has been back at the car dealer for most of that time. Main problem is in the engine. Every time I pick it up they say it's fine now..... It's not. Taking it back (again) tomorrow. Want my money back!!! :blabla: Problem manifests itself as engine hesitation & Diesel 'spit-back' when accelerating.

Get some legal advice from a lawyer or citizens advice so you can quote the law regarding selling of faulty goods etc. Good luck.

Truthfull reply is - I don't know that much about the engine, every time I get it back from the garage - it goes back in the next day!!
I bought it 19 days ago, they've had it over 15 of those.....

Is it a landy specialist or just a normal garage?

Getting my money back now Folks..... I might not be a Land Rover owner for much longer, but I've still enjoyed the Banter on this site... may pop back from time to time - just to annoy people by talking about Gaylanders and so on...
