My father has a Freelander Diesel Softback XE Di 3dr on a W Plate
He bought it off my brother inlaw who has not driven it for over a year.
Now my dad hasn't driven it since he got it as he's got a Toyboata Avensis & had not swapped insurance over but he was planning on going to cornwall & I told him to take the freelander as diesel is more econimical.
Anyway he took it there & back & is complaining like hell thats its slow as anything no power to get away at junctions etc.
Now my experience Of Freelanders is next to nothing as I've owned VW's all my life.
But I have OBDII Diag Cables for my VW Diesels and I'm wondering what software I need to communicate with the ECU to read and possibly clear fault codes to see why this car is so slow.
Can someone PLEASE help.
I want him to keep it but he'll just sell it if its gonna be a big problem.
Many thanks
Steve
