Hello everyone,

My car has decided to develop a fault its a Freelander 2 TD4 Manual (New Landover clutch and recon gearbox from Bells 18 months ago) and its Jumping out of gear on the Motorway, Only happens in 6th gear.

Has anyone come across this before?

Thanks
 
Sounds like a decent on 6th has failed, possibly a broken spring. I'd expect a reconditioned box to last more than 18 months TBH.

There was a big twanging spring sound last week but I assumed it was one of the handbrake springs I installed coming off
 
I have decided to just us 5th as it snatch’s with a small bang in 6th. I only drive a few miles on the motorway which I can live with, I am just going to run it into the ground with minimal repair to keep it going and save my money for when it gets scrapped and just buy a better one
 
That would be a shame.
It’s worth a little exploration under the gear stick at least - it may be an easy fix.

Freelander 2 manual gear selector problem

Second time I have had this problem with the detent on 5,6,Rev on the manual gearbox. I believe it is an electrically operated detent which fails to operate making it very difficult to select 5 & 6 and can also jam the stick if you do manage to get 5 or 6. It was fixed under warranty first time...

i wont be using it for nearly a month now and I am wondering if it’s as simple as a worn linkage bush. I need to rule out anything simple first I guess
