No warning lights at all. It is a little bit more smokey than it used to be, but not excessively so.

Right, ive been and tightened all of the clamps, there was a little bit of slack, but not much. got 500 yards down the road & power died again :mad: I tried to listen to the noise a bit closer tonight, it gets louder & louder as I go up the revs, and is really loud and whistley when at high...

Thanks for the advice, I'l check how tight they are when I get home. Any ideas on why flicking the ignition off & on (it doesn't even need to be enough to cut the engine) brings the power back?

Yeh, that was recommended to me. Ive replaced them with some silicone hoses just to be safe, but the old ones didnt seem too bad or have any noticeable splits

Hi all, I know these threads are a regular occurrence, and I apologise for making another one. I've had a couple of issues that I haven't seen mentioned in the other threads so thought the problem might be related to these. I noticed recently that the engine was making a whistling /...

Hi again, Just thought I would update you with the latest.. I took it back to the Garage who changed the tyres over, but vibration has continued and the smell is getting worse. So back again, they have now said the rear tyres have worn around the outer edge, and the Diff is leaking from a...

Hi all, Bewildered Freelander owner here. As you may guess from my imaginative username my name is Jamie, from a very wet Mid - Wales. Have owned my Freelander for 12 months now, I decided on it as we moved out into the country, and needed something that still drove ok on the roads but...

I bloody wish it was. :(

So obvious you wouldn't have thought an land rover "specialist" would have done it eh?

No, I haven't sorry. I'll do it now. I had two tyres changed recently on the front at a land rover specialist. Having read around, this seems BAD. Could this be the issue? If so, how much damage could have been done?

Hi all, Hope someone can help. For a while now I've had a sort of rhythmic whirring sound when I've got up to about 50mph. I've only been doing short runs to work and back. Tonight however, I had to go on a bit of a longer journey. After about 10 miles, there was a really strong smell of...

loose intercooler pipe apparently

Im not sure to be honest, ive only had it a couple of months. Latest from the garage is "it does sound noisy to be fair, but sort of engine noisy" . Beggars belief.

Hi All, Apologies that my first post on here is a question. I have searched the forum, but couldnt find anything that matched what going on with my freelander at the minute. It is currently in the garage, who have just phoned to say they "cant see much wrong with it" :rolleyes: I was...
