Had the same problem with mine, windows stick, not good if your out in the fields and it's pissing down, cheaply made, I would not have another Landy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dogmad riley 1,344 Posted May 22, 2016 Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 Thank you. I have no idea which way to go. I hate buying motors :-( Go and look at the Freelander 2 forum mate, you'll get an idea if it's worth a punt.Most people who own them, really like them. and a hell of a lot of ex-owners say never again, worked on enough of them, maybe the "3" is ok but the "2" is poorThey never made a 3, they stopped producing the 2 last year and that's the finish of them. I believe the discovery sport has taken the place of the freelander Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Born Hunter 17,775 Posted May 23, 2016 Report Share Posted May 23, 2016 (edited) I have a 10 plate TD4. Cracking motor, very pleased with it and that's all I hear from other owners. Those that say they're shite are talking bollocks imo. They're not without their litle problems, like all motors. The FL2 suffers from the bad rep of the FL1 and people just hear freelander and go off on one. They are two completely different motors!

GRANNY 1 Posted June 23, 2016 Report Share Posted June 23, 2016 I`ve been driving my work commercial 2 for 6 years. Done 226k miles and started playing up 2 weeks ago. Had it serviced regularly but the ECU has a problem now. Too expensive to repair my garage mate tells me. He cant believe the millage I`ve done without having issues. Garages love them cos they break down generally Quote Link to post Share on other sites
