    Freelander 2 (LR2) Rear Hub/sensor replacement?

    I take your point about "wasting money", but I do NEED a replacement loom to be able to correctly install a new sensor (not happy with a soldered connection). As mentioned above, all three sensors I have work on the rear left hub - or at least they appear to as I have no fault code for any of...

    Freelander 2 (LR2) Rear Hub/sensor replacement?

    Cleared the error code, no change. I bought a replacement sensor (non oem) and checked it worked on the side that is OK, then checked the original sensor I thought was buggered- both of them work fine. Finally tracked it down to a dodgy bit of soldering at the plug connection.... Chopped the...

    Tyre choose FREELANDER 2

    Is it just me? I don't know of any tyre that has much of an influence on improving riding comfort described by thr OP, unless you have been driving on mud tyres on tarmac, in which case anything is better. Suspension, tracking, wheel size make a difference, but tyre choice? Really? Happy to...

    Freelander 2 (LR2) Rear shocks replacement

    Ha, ha, ha....Funny how the thread drifts off... Bought the car, seems like a decent motor and will change both shocks when they arrive. Looks to be simple enough.

    Freelander 2 (LR2) Rear shocks replacement

    Hi all, search function hasn't thrown anything up? So here we are... Has anyone changed their rear shocks? I am hoping to buy a 2007 HSE here in France but it just failed the French MOT on the shocks. It's about £230 to buy a set of oem for the rear (from the UK) but I have no idea if it's a...

    Defender td5 wheel size- help?

    Can anyone advise if the defender td5 has the same wheel pattern as the defender tdi? I don't think so and you need a spacer/converter? I have someone just turned up to buy some who isn't sure if the wheels are the same? ......he's taken them regardless.

    Disco 2 Dashboard lights?

    I just had an idea..... RTFManual :):):) I blame my brain.......and my increasing years......and a soupçon of stupidity. I'm sure I never used to be this dumb, but my memory isn't so good either, so maybe I always was. In my (lame) defence I've been using the suspension on high for a week and...
