Been reading another thread about hesitation and it was mentioned about the throttle body being faulty how can I tell if mine is working.

My Freelander which is manual seams flat when pulling away to which sometimes seams to want to stall. I have also noticed a sort of flat spot with the throttle response when accelerating onto the duel carriageway there seams like a dead spot on the pedal if you know what I mean.
I have never heard any sort of crunching or grinding in the 4 years I owned the freelander but the farmer I bought it from was known to do the odd bodge on things whether he has removed the gears or not I don't know.

You can usually hear the whine from it on shutdown 2014 SE Loire Blue SD4 Auto (MY15)

mine doesn't make a whine only a sort or squeal is heard if I press the clutch pedal or after I switch the engine off which last for a few minutes which I thought was being made by the cooling fan module on the radiator but I might be mistaken.

I don't know if you have a code reader but these were logged on another members ECU

I have similar symptoms occasionally.

My engine shudders to a stop most of the time and on the odd occasion it shuts down smooth. I might have to remove the throttle body and take a look as it must be broken.

Certainly sounds like it!
