    What have you done to your Freelander today

    Road trip 399m to pick my new project up šŸ˜ƒ Towing a trailer with the car on for over 1/2 of it The light just came on so not bad MPG Never really towed much past local but I must admit what a joy the Freelander is I was dreading it with the car on (800kg plus 1160kg car ) but loads of power...

    Same problem on one this week second hand regulator fixed it šŸ‘Œ Try easy start if like the other one this week it starts and runs but knock it off and no start itā€™s probably the regulator

    Freelander 2 or defender

    99% of people that could own a defender Would pick that over a Freelander ( including me ) But the hassle that is owning a defender would probably bit you on the arse Pretty quickly

    Brake pads not fitting

    Not sure this will apply to you but on a Freelander I was putting pads in I found out why they did not fit was because it had one old calliper ( for the solid disc) not enough room for the pads

    They are a nightmare to isolate especially if the steering is ok not squeaking this is my own experience with the vans we run but i was in the same situation as you and changed them in desperation if i am honest but fixed the thudding The ARB would make a metal on metal noise if they failed i...
