1. Easiest check is to take off the battery cover to see if a fuse is attached to the positive lead, which means that the heater has been disconnected but not replaced yet.

2. Next option is to press the "PROG" button on the dash and see how long it takes for warm air to come through onto the windscreen on a cold morning.

3. As it is a safety recall LR can't sell any vehicles until the fix has been implemented on the vehicle, so yours should be ok.

4. Lastly, if you are still unsure then check with the dealer you bought it from.  ______________________

Mine is booked in tommorow. Never did get around to getting it disconnected first but hasn't caught fire so far

Thanks for the info Dave - the 100 fuse was under the battery cover as you described - so I'll be contacting the dealer tomorrow - wonder why nobody told me about this when I got the vehicle on 17 Jan. Maybe there's a letter on the way ? Not sure how this fits in with your point 3

Glad to be of service, like most of us on here we all try and do our bit to help each other  ______________________

New heater fitted yesterday at James Edwards (Brock) the dealer nearest to Preston. Fitting is currently taking them about 1.5 hours and includes handbrake adjustment. Car got a nice wash as part of the service. I now have warm air on cold mornings for the first time in two months.  Freelander 2 GS Nazca Sand

Noticed the sloppy handbrake on picking up the FL2 after the P014 recall (done on 12-Jan) so I suspected the console between the seats had come out. Yesterday a trip to clients in the wilds of Amersham so on with the Tom Tom and the walkman. Discovered no power to either of the aux power sockets (fortunately the Tom Tom battery died on the way back whilst on the M25 and even I can navigate from there).

This morning phoned LR CRC to ask the question 'does the centre console come out for a P014 recall?' Answer 'No, all from the engine bay side'. Checked the fuse, no problem, metered the sockets, no power. Read this thread and it appears the centre console does come out.

So it seems that:

LR CRC don't know what they are talking about
The dealership can't do the recall without messing something else up

Am awaiting a phone call from the dealership... Andrew

Just had mine fitted today. Car seems clean and no marks inside. Not been cold enough to notice any difference yet. Car left at 9.00 and collected at 12.00 - Taggarts in Glasgow. So far so good and they claim to have identified a fix for the small clonks coming from the offside rear - I wait to see.

 Grumpy

what were the clonks you refer to and what was the fix? (might help my useless dealer when i take mine in soon!)

Well car went in today barretts canterbury for recall p0104 came back washed,valeted and they also done a visal health check water,oil,tyres Put the heater in to program mode 25-30 sec lovely hot air. As for the auto.To move from park to reverse you have to push the knob in. From reverse you can go straight in to neutral or drive without pushing the knob in you can go from drive to neutral without the knob but it will not let you select reverse without the knob in  07my Freelander 2 HSE TD4 Baltic Blue,Privacy Glass,Ebony black leather,Land rover detachable towbar,S/S Side bars,Climair wind deflectors,Bramble Rash,
