Land Rover Freelander 2004 EngineLand Rover Freelander 2004 Engine Review #10460762 LAND ROVER FREELANDER 2004 car safety problem was reported on Apr 30, 2012.LAND ROVER FREELANDER 2004, manufactured by LAND ROVER had a problem with ENGINE . my son turned 16 on march 18, 2012. we wanted an suv that would be safe to drive. we wanted a car with lower mileage. we found a 2004 land rover freelander at a local dealer with only 56,000 miles. car was in awesome shape inside and out. new tires, etc. paid $9,500. a few days later took the car to my local land rover dealer in portland oregon to have the car looked over. you know the normal oil change, or whatever else they do on a car at 55k miles. after they looked it over they told me the coils needed to be replaced. and also the plugs. i said sure whatever. $1,200 later i had my son's car back. a few weeks later it had a odor to it, and it was having problems going up hills and the engine was making strange sounds. a day later it stalled. had it towed to land rover dealer in portland oregon and they told me it appears that is was out of coolant. they thought at first it must be a faulty thermostat or possibly the water pump. nope. they came back with there is coolant mixing in with the engine oil. that it would another $1,200 to $1,500 just to find out what the problem actually is. told me if it was head gaskets or something in the block, it would cost at least $5,000 or more to repair. the land rover dealership offered to replace the blown hoses and they told they could get it working again but it was not going to run for very much longer. i checked with other land rover service companies and they all refused to even look at the freelander as they knew it was not going to turn out well. i finally found a mechanic in portland oregon who agreed to take it apart and fix it. they told me no more than $3,500. what was i suppose to do, we paid $9,500 and selling it for scrap seem like a bad idea. so as of today, june 6th i am still waiting for the repairs at a local shop on our 2004 land rover freelander with only 57k to be completed. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 57000 miles.

Land Rover Freelander 2004 Reports
I CANNOT MANUALLY OPEN THE DOOR OF MY RANGE ROVER 2004 HSE I have a 1995 discovery that my son has locked up the anti thefy system. He was sitting in it and doors locked beeped 3 times and couldn't get out. Got out back door but now won't start and drivers door you can take screw drive put up lock by lo How do you find out what exactly is the recalls your vehicle is listed for? Is there some place specifically to go to and punch in the VIN number and it will tell you? how to adjust engine " delco " power for discovery 98?? My land rover discovery wont start & my abs + tc lights are on, can I jump start the car, what's causing that??? Replace parts new alternator plus battery, thermostat, water pump, serpentine belt + few more items. ONE I have a rear air shock that is beginning to go in my 1999. The dealership said wait until it won't lift before replacing it with springs. Is it still safe to tow small loads? my 2003 disco is all over the road when a rut or bump in the road is encountered-the steering seems to go out of control and much effort is required to keep it going in a straight direction-on good roads you can let go of the steering wheel and it Discovery Series 1. ABS light on and off. Brakes would completely fail to engage randomly at slow speeds. Set my wife and kids right though a stop sign into traffic. Fortunately she avoided an accident. Had to pull the ABS wires to disable the ABS I lost all keys of my Landrover freelander 2001, Please direct me on what to do or where I can order for the new ignition system The best piece of automobile, I've ever seen in my life!
