maybe you should add a poll: 0 problems; minor problems; real problems; problems which are your own fault

That shoudl give you a better picture

Am I alone or is there anybody else out there that has 0-problems to mention......................or maybe I am alone

Have been owner for 28 months and 59000+ miles and enjoyed most of it.

I would like to be a member of the zero problem club, however I have had problems, not as bad as NP but enough that I can remember.

Ongoing battery fault,
Radio that looses its tuning at least 1 in 3 times after starting up
No alarm for 5 months
Failed clutch hydraulics
Loose anti roll bar
Failed tailgate release switch
Now suffering multiple rattles from dashboard
Poor brake life

Only the failure of the clutch hydraulics kept the car off the road so haven't suffered too much inconvenience, main problem has been dealer related.

Would have another one without any doubt IF it wasn't for the vastly increased running costs Stornoway Grey GS ... What a fine motor ... but not any more ... ... psst look at my gallery!
Company cars ... a thing of the past - May 2013.

At the start of this thread I thought a poll would be a good I dea, but then thought as so many members having problems didnt really see the point. Guessed the result might be 1 member with 0-problems & 1409 with problems

Still, dispite all the problems covered in posts over the last couple of years it is a bit supprising to see that there are still a few members with Zero-Problems, but how many I really wonder . So maybe a poll is a good idea, and that we send the results to Land Rover

Maybe a poll could indicate how many of what catagory of problem
How old is the FL2 = (in months)
How far has it gone = (UK Miles) (US Miles) (Kilometers)
Zero- problems = (just add a 0)
Minor Problems = (with number of problems)
Major Problems = (with number of problems)
Your own silly fault problems = (with number of problems)

Any other ideas of how the poll should look like  2007 Freelander 2 HSE TD4 Manual with Premium Pack & Moonroof.
Stornoway Grey with Ebony Black Pleather, Clear Indicators, Body Side Mouldings etc.

looks good to me

Two years 4 months old, 30000 miles, no problems except rusting of towbar electrics mounting plate. Hope to buy a new FL2 soon if I can get a good deal.

15 months......15000 miles.... No problems..... only been to Dealer for service and recall!  Baltic blue XS - Alpaca Leather - 18" HSE wheels.

11 months
18,000 miles
2 problems
... 2 untraceable instances of non-functioning rear PDC sensor, one of which cost me a rear light cluster and some paint
... rust showing on the LR tow bar

Other problem - yet to see another Freel2 sticker on the road!!! LOL Gone... 2013 XS TD4 Manual Firenze Red
Gone... 2008 (09MY) XS Td4 Manual Stornaway Grey
Prior... 2003 G4 Discovery 2, 1998 Disco 1 and 1997 Disco 1 Company car before that
Also gone in Nov'13, after 7.5 yrs, to new owners with time for more TLC - 1980 Series III 88
Current 2015 Discovery Sport HSE 2.0

Seven months and no problems to report whatsoever
Good job because the dealer that I purchased from has gone and also my local dealer has gone, so I now have no local dealer
This is possibly one of the best vehicles that I have owned

12 months, 12000 mile, 9 months of 1 problem!

Knocking noise took me 9 months took get sorted, 4 stays at 1 dealer and 3 weeks at another before it got erridicated. Totally me off and whilst I love thet FL2 their customer support leaves much to be desired and will be something I will bear in mind when choosing my next vehicle in 2 years time. Now - 2017 BMW X3 M Sport Carbon Black
Gone - 2014 BMW X3 M Sport Space Grey, faultless!
Gone - 2011 Freelander 2 SD4 HSE Bali Blue with xenons
Gone - 2008 Freelander 2 TD4 HSE Rimini Red with bodykit

9 months, 6000mls 0 problems. 100% satisfied with the car and my stratstone dealer.

8 Months 27,000 miles. No Problems.

(Except 4 new tyres at 22,000, which I thought a bit poor)
