If an LR dealer won't help, then an email to LR customer services could be the way to go. The radio code will have been on the original build sheet, so LR should have it on record.
Alternatively you could simply replace the unit with something more modern, with modern features.
Cheers I’ve called at a different LR dealer and got the code only to find the front passenger side speaker working any ideas this car is driving me insane
Please tell me there’s a quick fix

Replacement of the faulty speaker is the fix. Doing the job is quick. Getting a replacement HK speaker is not so quick and can be expensive too.Please tell me there’s a quick fix
I had the same with my HSE. Just find a speaker that fits the opening. The HK speakers are nothing special. It may be you need to clean the connections on the original.

Only if the OP wants to be dealing with endless electrical gremlins. The Freelander is positive low hassle and low maintenance compared to a P38, even though the P38 is the nicer vehicle.Buy a better LR? A P38 is always a good choice.
If the speaker doesn’t solve it you may wanna check the wiring harness in the door. I’ve had to replace all the speaker wiring in my front passenger side door due to it rotting all the way up the cable inside the insulation. When stripping the insulation back to solder new wire on to, I was almost stripped right back to where the harness goes back into the car before I found shiny copper. There was a good 6-8 inches of rotten cable.Please tell me there’s a quick fix

The speakers will be more than likely damaged and don’t work if you have one working a code would make zero differenceCheers I’ve called at a different LR dealer and got the code only to find the front passenger side speaker working any ideas this car is driving me insane

'low maintainence' 'low hassle' not theres two phrases you dont see often paired with anything land rover.
Come to think of it almost never with a 'free-its gone-wrong-lander'
So far, no electrical gremlins, just broken stuff (luckily)
Low hassle & Low Maintenance when you do <2,000 a years is pretty much every car on the planet I think.
