United Kingdom 2007 Freelander 2 TD4 HSE Manual Stornoway Grey
Tyre presures.

Yes i know i'll get told off for not searching the topics for this but here goes anyway....When i go to the tech forum,i cant find a panel to type in my search. otherwise i would try that first.!!!!!
I've been right through the owners manual to find the tyre presures.But it refers me to the passenger side front door post where there is a sticker giving the presures.But alas mine is not readable due to it being washed away.
So please help as to where i might be able to get a new sticker. Plus pleaese tell me the presures.for an 07 HSE diesel.
Dave. my freelander is an 07 Stornoway grey HSE with full cream leather

Press search and you can narrow your search to section under options lower down the page


To help we would need to know your tyre size Thumbs Up

United Kingdom 2012 Freelander 2 TD4 GS Manual Santorini Black

215/75r16, 235/65r17 and 235/60r18 - 32psi front and rear.

235/55r19 - 35psi front and rear.

155/85r18 (space saver) - 60psi.

Bear in mind that the camber is different on the fronts Vs rears, thus your fronts will look flatter (less/under-inflated) compared to the rears for the same pressure. This is fine Wink

These pressures are for a 2012MY, your could be different, but it's a starter for ten. LR did change the recommended pressures for the Frerlander 1 shortly after launching. Our R-plate was 30psi, but just as we replaced the fronts, LR dropped it to 26psi. So maybe the latter figures are better as they get feedback from users Wink

Tyre pressures haven't changed since Freelander 2 was introduced.

There were all sorts of problems with tyre wear on the FR1, and the pressure changes were designed to solve them. I don't think there have been any changes on the FR2.

Glad they've sorted it Wink

Ours ate the fronts (centres) in little time, so the drop was welcome as we got a good 24k out of Wranglers Smile

That's certainly indicative of too much pressure. Mine was weirder - I got uneven wear (flat spots) on the rear tyres - very noisy! My tyre man had never seen anything like it. They lowered the recommended pressures and after that my new tyres were fine. I can only assume it was something to do with unevenness between front and back messing up the 4wd system.
