Do you have a removable towbar fitted? think there's a "problem" with a cure on here for clunking from there, might be your clanky noise from the back? |

What mileage has it done? might give some others an idea if it's wear + tear related? |

Being a manual I would check the proper function of the clutch's switches...

It's done 30,500 miles. Thanks, Alex! I will check that out! I was beginning to think it could be this dreaded differential issue ... not that I know what that is, being technically/ mechanically challenged, but I've heard so much about this ... 2010 Land Rover Freelander 2 TD4.e GS

I have the same problem so checked the switches today.You have to remove the knee airbag and the big plastic sourrounding it.It has two t27 torx screws near the steering column(kind of hard to get to) and two t27 torx screws near the pedals.First remove the headlight switch and the trim then the trim where you put the key,remove the four torx screws.Pull firmly on the airbag sourrounding the airbag it is hold by retaing clips.the platic and the airbag will then hang on the airbag wires.the best way to check the switches is by removing them from the clutch pedal.Pull aside the sound dedning foam.The first switch you remove by taking the wire plug out and then twist ithe switch clockwise or anticlock,can't remeber.The second switch is a pain in the to get out.After removing the plug try to pry it out.It i hidden close to the firewall and you don't ahve room for you hand to get it out easy .Putting it back it's even harder.

I wanted to add this.I don't know how many ohm the switches should have so.I don't really know if they were ok. |

It's a switch so the resistance must tends to 0 when's closed and towards infinite when's open.

Thanks, guys! I'm taking it back to the dealer next week to have it checked out - differential and the clutch - I'll have to wait and see what he comes back with ... 2010 Land Rover Freelander 2 TD4.e GS
