Awesome advice again folks cheers

I wasnt deliberately letting it run dry I checked cause I was getting an oily smell when I broke out the heavy foot. Thanks for all the advice on another note all four windows make a noise but dont move. Any clues what 4 parts I need to order

Cheers just looking for a rough guestimate I will find out if the dipstick works then

I bought a haynes manual but it doesnt cover my engine. I am not sure if my dipstick is the correct one as there is no oil on it but no light either. Im gonna do an oil change but wondered if anyone knows what oil to use and how much. And for bonus points, how longs the dipstick

I did search and never found anyone with the same issue And gearbox and I didnt realise I had to sit at the computer till folk started replying. I consulted a mechanic in a supermarket carpark and he suggested fluid and I will check the other suggestions while im at it. Thanks for all the help.

its a freelander 1 and its a 2001. the problem has solved itself after sitting for a while. i was driving at 50 and i noticed it wouldnt go into 4th. i put it in sport mode and it selected all the others but no 4th so i pulled over to see if i could fix it and reverse wouldnt engage. so i left...

Hi i bought my freelander 2 weeks ago and gearbox worked fine but today on a drive it stopped selecting 4th and when i pulled over it wouldnt select reverse either. any ideas what has caused this issue as i need it for my work thanks
