I believe that we have a few members of the Forum who are employed at LR dealers? Do they have any information, knowledge or comments on the action being undertaken to resolve this problem, having LR's since 1999 and driven them for years in the RAF before that, the issue is seriously making me think about future options.

Changed their minds, after reviewing more data they now want to change the EGR valve. Problem is reproducing again a little so hopefully will be able to assess the fix, but from reading this thread it might only be temporary. |

A troublesome thread this. From my appreciation of the forum posts it seems to me that the latest Freelander 2 models are less reliable than the earlier ones. Surely the car should be improving in reliability stats as known faults and weaknesses are addressed. Maybe when they update components on Landies these days they seek to make the new more sophisticated, and stylish rather than better! The latest Haldex units seem to be particularly troublesome. Maybe it is just that there are more Freelies on the road but worrisome nonetheless. Enough to discourage me from swapping my lovely one for the latest one filled with the fragile toys - electric handbrake, stop start, DPF etc

There is a software update to cure this problem, had mine done about six weeks ago and it's been great ever since |

I was following this thread last year and thought I had posted on it. My October 2013 registered 12MY developed this misfire in April last year. 1st, 2nd and 3rd gear between 1500 and 2000rpm. Several visits to the dealer who could not find the problem.

Had the so called software download fix for this problem earlier this year and also had the "Transmission Fault -reduced traction" light about a month ago, this was dealt with by another download, to the haldex ECU, the hesitation has now returned with a vengeance probably the worst it's been, along with the rough accel away from cold. It's being part exed for new one tommorrow so will probably never find out any further information regarding rectification. MY14 TD4 manual XS Orkney grey.

I have been moved to this thread where others seem to be experience the same issue as me. I have had the EGR valve replaced + at least one software upgrade, but the issue is still there. Any advice gratefully received so I can go back to LR with views. I have a 13 plate 150 Manual. Definitely isn't clutch - that is fully up and foot off when the issue shows itself. I have tried lots of different driving styles + long journeys and long journeys towing, so it can't be the DPF getting full. It is a real pain when towing and suddenly your car hesitates on acceleration and whatever is behind you gives you a shove in the boot! |

Out of curiousity (and assuming that others who have experienced this problem are watching this thread), where do you buy your fuel from?
