I bought myself my first landy last year which is a Freelander 1, 1999 model with a 2 litre diesel engine. It's in exceptional condition for a 20 year old car, but has many minor issues which are being sorted out slowly.
The problem I have at the moment is traction control! I've noticed that , at slow speed and when turning right, if I hit a bump or rough ground, there is alot of chatter from the control unit and occasionally will lose the brakes totally. A mechanic advised me just to disconnect the unit and everything will be fine. But I won't have Abs or Traction control!
Does anyone know about this problem and/or knows how to fix it? I want to see if it's fixable by me because the mechanics are damned expensive here!
