Problems!

Hi folks, my 07 freelander 2 unfortunately has a couple of problems .
Firstly my rear diff - I had it replaced under warranty roughly a year ago because of loud grinding type noises when pulling away from junctions on a full lock. Now within the last few months i have the same problem occuring which is very frustrating.
Now for the clutch - I am experiencing a lack of power and a judder when accelerating to around 2000rpm. I have read several explanations but the main theory seems to be the clutch slipping?
Last but now least - I have started to get a squeaking noise when driving at different speeds. I think its coming from the back end so it could be connected with the diff problem?

Any help or advice would be much appreciated. Smile

squealing rear brakes, common fault lining separates from brake pad, hand brakes shoes probably want changing at same time. no need to pay LR prices for this there are plenty of good quality 'other brand' brake parts available

clutch is a weak point as is dual mass flywheel.

LR should (might?) step up and pay for the diff atleast, as its now their second attempt. At work
