Hi all
MERRY XMAS !!!!
Im new here ,this is my first post so hope everything i ask is within the forum rules , I'm Griff ,i love playing with cars but this is my first ever 4x4 and it looks like i may have major problems......
i have just got hold of my first freelander its a 2002 td4 ,134000 miles and i have no service book so have no idea what services it has had done ,all i know is it's had new front brakes and disks ,also new handbrake cable ,which is far too tight in my opinion (only goes to one click and its hard to get to there )
Anyway here is my problem, I'm hoping you guys can help me with!!:doh:
Right here goes, the car sounds like a plane taking off from the inside ,when driving it is so so loud ,it's a very strange noise almost like a grinding sound coming from under the car (somewhere near middle of car ,also when changing gear or putting foot down you get a sound like something clunks/bangs)
The grinding noise is something to do with the transmission I think ,but even when free wheeling its there ,and stays until you come to a complete stop!!!!
It gets quieter the faster you go , I'm assuming its either a dry part? joint? bearing? dif ?
I really like the car ,it will be awsome once i manage to fix this problem, im just hoping its not going to be a total disaster?!
cheers for any help you can give,
Griff
