The D3/4 site is totally different, they even mod new cars.

Could you tell us some of the mods that they do and you want to see on FL2 and are also possible?

1. From what I remember one of them is 4x4 info on navi screen. This can't be done on FL2...

2. Another is installing Telestart on Webasto. This can be done, as long it is a factory fit for Russian markets.
I've found out that the wiring loom is already there, when I've tried to diagnose and reset the errors on my Webasto. The problem is that not so many have the Webasto. On UK cars the Webasto is substituted by the PTC. On the other hand, all D3s and D4s have Webasto...

3. ...
4. ...

Other mods?...

hi, I am looking to add the front parking sensors to my car but am struggling to find the parts. Could not find anything apart from the parking sensors themselves on ebay. I do not think the wiring loom of the rear sensors would be good, im guessing, it would need to be much longer?

As the thread is five years old it's possible that the older system would not support this feature. Smile

Quite so....
Like 3disco says, I dare you to do the same on a MY2009 car...
Although a Haldex, as it's driven dynamically, isn't really locked all the time like in the picture, so that layout is pretty useless from the real information input point of view.

Ireland 2009 Freelander 2 TD4 S Auto Indus Silver

Hi to all.
Im a new on forum and recently bought Freelander 2 S TD4 2009 with auto gearbox. Car is great and drive lovely specially when you move from Fiat Panda Smile I would like to retrofit PDC on rear and if possible on front. Looks like this topic had in past guide but it is gone now so I have few questions.
What do I need to get working parking sensors? From what I read
for rear:
Parking AID ECU
4x sensors
loom for rear boomper

for front :
4x sensors
loom
switch on desk

Q1 do I need mounting brackets LR001961 for rear??
Q2 do I need cable that connects loom from rear/front boomper to ECU??
Q3 do I need or it is already there cable for connecting AID to CANbus?
Q4 I read on this forum that I also need to modify CCF and so I probably need to get some hardware/software to do this. The only I have is cheap ELM327 bluetooth but from I read it is not for that job.
Q5 is it worth ??Smile Most of parts can be bought from ebay or scrap cars

Thanks
