I've driven around 15.000Km and have never seen a message about the DPF - I drive mostly Autobahn - is it cleaning itself with high speed driving? Which driving condition clogs up the DPF more? - Mike |

Dear Charvis-tu, if your Freelander 2 has been manufactured after August 2007 you may be lucky and the better pressure sensors have been installed. If you still have problems with the DPF (reduced engine performance) I advise you to check if the electronic up-date of the motor management has been installed in your vehicle (release date by Landrover: September 10, 2007). If yes, but you should still have problems with your DPF, I strongly advise you to change the motor oil against a modern DPF-compatible motor oil such as Shell Helix Ultra "E" 5W30 or Mobil 1 Formula ESP 5W30 or similar oils according to ACEA C3. The Landrover approved motor oils according to Ford norm 913B (so called A-1 oils) ARE NOT suitable for diesel engines with DPF. Unfortunately Landrover will not recognise this fact.

Hi Charvis, your description is excacly what I have experienced, and at the end malfunctioning pressure sensors have caused the problem. Change of the two sensors against the improved version has cured the problem. Landrover offers on its internet home-page a list of technical bulletins with regard to reported problems and the recommended technical cure/improvements. In the meantime, there are quite some numbers of such techn. bulletins. The checking and replacement of the pressure sensing devices of TD4-engines with DPF is one of such bulletin, and I recommend that you advise your dealer/workshop to carefully read the technical instructions from Landrover.

To all interested: Under "www.ownerinfo.landrover.com/extfree2viewprod/index.jsp" you may look at a variety of Landrover information. For this purpose, you 1. Select your vehicle; 2. select a documents type - choose warranty handbooks; 3. press: continue; 4. then go to: Landrover warranty benefits (export versions), and then you can scroll through the technical bulletins with release date as released by Landrover to its dealers.
