At about 18000 miles needed a new back differential. Fitted under warranty
Leaky back door
Cracked chassis repaired by Landrover even though out of warranty
55000 miles knocking transmission. Told its the viscose cuppling and will cost £1000 to fix.
Enjoyed the landrover despite the problems. Off road it is great and twos a caravan OK. Fuel consumption fine about 35 mpg around town and 45 on a run.
Doesn't your Freelander make an awful noise after 50mph?? You'll find that once the viscose cuppling is replaced, this sound will disappear. It happened with my Freelander. When additional problems (and there were many) appeared I decided to sell it (after 54,000 miles). Good luck with yours.
