Ordered a switch myself , lets hope it solves the problem for both of us , looking forward to an update from you

Im on holiday at moment and am having to park freelander on a very steep slope , it appears that everytime I drive off all is good with HDC light and function until I get abour 1/2 a mile on the flat , does this help explain the fault ?ive ordered a new brake switch so am hoping thats the issue.

Ok , ive just checked the centre diff mount and it's bouncing around like Barbara Windsor Carry on Camping , ive ordered a new one but I'm on holiday and have a 200 mile trip to complete first , ( motorways) is this a major issue , I'm assuming this is where vibration is coming from also , can...

Ive replaced one side 3 weeks ago to get it through the Mot , the other 2 seem solid , ill give them a shake tommorow and have a further look , the one was easy enough

Ive got a few issues with Freelander 2002 , hopefully all minor issues , as I pull away at low speed usually after reversing , I get a short bang at the back , this happened years ago on my series 3 and it was a broken spring on the shoe , any other ideas? , I havent looked yet also if this is...

Ok I've solved this , the clip kept coming out and it was definately connected to the wire so I would have had to replace the whole thing . with very little access I attached a cable tie to something solid behind the console and pulled it right securing the cable , so far its worked great and...

Ok ive just done over 200 miles and its not causing an issue , just one question , a lot of people have said to check the connections under the gearstick and to check the spade connectors. I cant see any connections under the gearstick apart from the plug that connects to the HDC trigger and...

Yeah all good , ill keep looking , its not too bad , im assuming it does need to move a bit , perhaps im just getting picky now .

Ive been trying to figure out a vibration under the car that shakes the gearstick at speed , gearbox seems ok and selects fine , part on photo is very loose and there is a lot of play , is this the bushings , if so are they readily ava for a 2002 3 door 1.8l freelander and are they easy to fit...

No ive checked tyres all good , ive bought some pads today in one of Eurocarparts any excuse to have a sale sales (My favourite was their Royal wedding weekend sale!) reduced to £12 from £34!, if they ever close down ill have to sell the car , ill give it a go later , Thanks again .

Ive also got a series 3 , so im used to not being able to hear passengers!! Thanks for answers, Ill check all suggestions, I have a related query , although its only 2 weeks into new Mot and brakes seem even and fine could brakes create a noise like this? Its not only when braking though and...

Hello all , my 2002 1.8l freelander is noisy on the motorway , it doesnt rattle or scrape or bump or bang , however its loud , its like a loud echo , difficult to explain , sometimes if the children open a rear window in our car whilst at speed it makes almost a flapping noise as the wind hits...

Thanks , ill leave it alone then !

Ive got a 2002 Freelander 3 door 1.8l , ive been trying to get to bottom of HDC warning light coming on and staying on permanently , checked wiring, brake switch , thtottle cable and lots of suggested things , I have a question re "switch" behind accelerator pedal . I see there is a little...

Shook car did nothing , could the brake switch fault mentioned in many posts just effect the HDC warning light ? Is there a way to check the switch ?

Thats great thanks , I appreciate that . should a clip be on the cable which clips into the moulding or should the cable just press into a clip which is completely mounted on the moulding ? Im assuming if somethings snapped off the moulding then ill have to find another way to secure it .

Here are the pictures , thanks

I'll try and get a picture so someone more knowledgeable can see if the clip has come disconnected or snapped , there doesn't appear to be any sharp pieces as if it's snapped. , I'll see what I can do

Thanks , yeah the flap is free , If I hold the outer casing and someone turns the dial its all 100% so I'll just have to try and work out of the clip is broken and if so try and attach poss with cable tie?

Ok , I managed to remove the radio and put my hand down the back , I pushed plastic dial ( pictured) back in and the actual switch clicked in behind it , I was more worried about the radio forgetting the code (which gladly it didnt ) thanks for advice , so now blower works , however I still have...
