Yes, it should only move between drive and neutral without pressing the lever. To put it in R or P you should have to press the lever.

i have just had this problem on my FL2 SE, went in for the PTC and service last week and then at 70mph went for 6th and went straight into reverse instead oooooppp, not a nice sound. Called landrover assistance tonite and the mechanic said its not safe to drive, so it on its way to the dealer, wait to see what they say and when i tell them i hit revers at 70mph........ |

my thoughts exactly, spoke to the dealership this morning to let them know its on the way to them and what happened. So going to ask that the gearbox be dissablemeds and inspected for damagae and if they cant do this then a new gearbox, since this is their fault and not mine |

just had a call from the dealership who had said the soilnoid is at fault and then have ordered a new one and will be fitting and roadtesting it tomorrow. I then pointed out to them that i want the gearbox fully checking for any damange that could have been caused at 70mph going into reverse. The are not happy on this as i have said if there is any damange then its goin to be a new gearbox which they say landrover wouldnt agree to.

You might want to point out the number of people on this forum (which lets face it is a pretty small sample of FL2 owners) that have had gear selection issues after the PTC recall work.

thanks dick, i have told them a number of people on here have had problems with both auto and manual boxes after the PTC recall. They dont have an issue replacing the solenoid which they are saying is not working its getting them to know do something about the gearbox which i grated as a result of the failure. One suggestion i gave them was that drain the gear box oil and if there is any filings on the sump plug then there is damage. My only fear with this is that they could just turn round and say yes we drained it and there nothing in there.........how much do you trust them when you know they would be looking at a bill for thousands to replace a gearbox. |

Interesting, must check my auto, the button on the stick seemed to have a lot more resistance after the PTC recall.

My problems started right after the 36,000 km service - before the Freelander had even left the dealer.
