Poland 2007 Freelander 2 TD4 S Auto Sumatra Black

By mechanics of my work (Nissan dealer) may be due to some resonance in terms of turnover and this is not nothing wrong - each engine are different flows and the symptoms

but the day after tomorrow will give the car to the service Land Rovera - we'll see what they are - although one suspect - "yes, this type is" this is the answer _________________________

is yes - noise when accelerating, there is something there with a valve to a certain extent turnover, while accelerating in the 2000 range revs - and this is normal

Such is the opinion of mechanics at the local dealer

So everything oki - so is to be _________________________

Hi PJW
The only post I made regarding a noise when pulling away was on the following thread http://www.freel2.com/forum/topic1586.html?highlight=
This was definitely the self test of the ABS which occurs when first starting after the engine has been started. It usually can be felt at around 3 to 4 mph.
I never experienced a noise when pulling away from a standing start when the engine had been running for some time.
I can't really help any further as I no longer drive a Freelander 2. The FL2 was the start of my particular case of the 'Green Oval Disease'. I upgraded to a D3 about 3 months ago. The D3 has the same ABS test noise also.
Hope this is of help. Enjoy the FL2

I have the exact same problem. There is a grinding noise when accelerating (not hard or slowly) and the noise occurs at around 2000 RPM. The noise is only for a second or two but loud enough to be heard from outside and inside. Sometimes you get to feel it in the car as well. It is a disappointment to say the least for a new car to sound like that.

Took it to my dealer a number of times for it and they have been quite attentive, though never been able to solve it. At first they thought I was nuts because I was the only one to "hear" it! After test driving with a technician for a while, the problem was heard. After doing their own investigation they came back and said that the noise "is a characteristic of the car" as LR has stated in communication with the dealer! In fact I personally test drove two other LR2 which both made the same noise albeit at a lesser level than mine. The grind also occurs only when in the normal driving program and not in any other driving programs like Mud Ruts of Snow/Gravel etc. The dealer offered me a software update as one of the vehicle I had test driven was with the latest software and the noise was considerably less. That seemed to work for the first couple of days after the install but the problem quickly crept back on.

I am 100% sure that this noise was not there when I first bought the car (or first test drove one) and that Censored me off. It is impossible for such a noise to appear and having LR claim that this is a characteristic of the car. It is an absurd lie and they better get a solution for it. I keep thinking that my engine might fall off one day and LR will say it is " a characteristic " of the car!!!! I suspect the Haldex unit might be at fault as the noise occurs only when the car needs torque and it might be the case where a batch of those is having a defect!

I will be taking it back in again soon for some other minor repairs (moving driver's seat and rattling in dashboard) and I hope that the dealers will have more information on the issue. What puzzles me more is that the dealer says that they have had no other complains of the same sort! Am i the only one who noticed this problem in Cyprus?? Highly doubt it!

Same here. On a hard or slow take off, no sound.
Only on medium throttle, when changing speeds from 1->2 (louder) and from 2->3 (quieter).
In my opinion, the noise is produced by the torque converter and it is rather normal.
Each gearbox (particulary, each torque converter) has its own geometry and its own resonance points.
Remember that in the torque converter, the stator, by its very aggressive blade design, almost completely reverses the direction/flow of the fluid.
And this fluid is pumped with various speeds/pressures by the pump, which in turn is directly driven by the engine. So a greater speed of the engine, a greater pressure of the fluid.
I believe that around 2000 rpm, when changing speeds, there is a resonance phenomena inside the torque converter, generated by the sudden drop in fluid pressure at a certain rotational speed, giving that sound.
A heavier foot will give a greater than 2000 rpm point of gear change, while a softer foot will make the gearbox change way before 2000 rpm, thus the conditions for resonance aren't meet anymore. A different off-road program also will modify the rpm changing points and therefore no sound.
Pay a little attention when you start the engine, first time in a day. Don't you hear the same sound, but much more quieter, after a second or two after start? I believe that it's the same torque converter which is (re)filled with transmission oil by the pump.

Was notified today that the dealer has been notified for a solution on the problem of the noise. I will be taking my car in in a month to get something replaced. They mentioned the torque converter but I think they have no clear information either.

I will keep you guys posted.

I guess that's the solution to our problem!!!! Did you had this action done on your car already ? Who gave you this information ?
Thanks.

I believe that it was a false alarm.
It's about a small group of cars from 2007, VIN Range: LF023393 to LF050392

I believe it in the corner of the front windscreen. There's also one stamped in teh chassis if you open the boot and take out the spae wheel cover. Below the backseat there is som yellow foam you have to push deeper. The middle foam part disguises teh VIN nbr. Hard to see and find.
Also in your cars paperwork it should be mentioned somewhere.
