Update....IRD ( front transfer box ) was replaced and whine has gone.... along with my savings. oh well its only money.

Update haha! thats just what the garage told me!

Thanks, i may try!. i should maybe have mentioned that we think the noise is coming from the front although i understand noise travels....

Hi, thanks for coming back on this. I will have a look through the service bills but if memory serves me i doubt it! Be nice if it was that straightforward....

many thanks for the links, much appreciated. Will have a good read through but i fear i will be at the mercy of my local garage, however good to be able to ask them the right questions! cheers

Hi Again! can anyone confirm for me what is going on.....my manual TD4 makes a loud whine when it gets to 2000 rpm...then again a few hundred rpm later but nice a quiet when at constant speed/revs at 50mph and above. Strangely i can make it do this if we are driving then press the clutch down...

hi, thankyou...yes it does feel like rear. my other half says it feels like driving out of a pothole! curious as to why it was worse straight after service/diff replacement though?

thanks muchly for the pointer, i will take a look.

Hi, im trying to sort out a few issues on our 2011 TD4 manual Freelander as id like to hang on to it , but every time i seem to end up with more! First problem i need to sort is a judder when pulling away in first gear which happens even with foot off the clutch... its got noticeably worse since...
