On my car it is the double size button under the CD slot row of buttons right side. Or just above the drivers side AC control. Procrastination, mankind's greatest labour saving device!

Hello all

Thanks for the comments
So here is an update, it has non OEM front parking sensor so this is why don't have the switch on the dashboard.

RE: Strastone (Newcastle upon Tyne) personally I haven't had any troubles with it this is my 3rd Freelander and I know they are not the cheapest one but the car comes with 2 years land Rover warranty plus every time I have troubles with the car they lend me one, (normally better than my car Smile

I'm going on Friday to pick up the car, hope all is going to be OK this time again Freelander 2 GS 59 plate about 35k miles (gone)

Good luck! Maybe the Newcastle branch is the exception that proves the rule. I would wonder how you can switch the sensors on and off then - must be a switch somewhere. Ex AA Series III LWB Safari - Gone
