Taken the disco for a wee drive well impressed plenty power, was getting just over 30 mpg until I put the foot down then about 22mpg. Would love one put impossible for me with everything else that goes with it . Should get my fl2 back on Monday ,reading a few posts it seems the rear diff is a common fault but at 30000 is that normal? Jim silver 59 xs privacy glass side steps sat nav

When is LR just going to admit this should be a recall? I'd be curious as to how many times they've been summoned to court by owners "just out of warranty" on this. There's plenty of evidentiary backup given the TSBs, complaints filed with the government, etc. CAR HISTORY

Decisions, decisions. Nice ones though Smile

I thought that i heard a rumble/drone yesterday on my way to Duckworth's but it must have just been the road that I was on at the time as it went away when I got back to tarmac roads.

Welcome to the club, that's four of us now that are listening for noises that we think are there, I've started making sure I always have the radio on, if I can hear a noise above that I can start worrying about it then. Thumbs Up

Hey, I'm not the one who has a neighbour down the road, who is concerned about my mental state because I've been seen walking around outside the front of my house, waving hose pipe around in one hand and an iPad in the other, whilst constantly chatting away and talking to my Freely and saying how well it sheens off Whistle

If any one doesn't believe it I do have the evidence. Whistle
