Hi all
My other half’s 2013 freelander has developed a strange fault, when it gets hot and in traffic, when you pull away from idle there is no power, press throttle and it very slowly picks up speed then it will ‘catch’ and be ok. No codes coming up so took it to my local (experienced in Land Rover) garage who look after my Discovery 5 and they can find nothing wrong, they cleaned the throttle body as it was a bit dirty and this made the car more responsive generally but when we got stuck in traffic again it went into no power again
Anyone got any thoughts?

Cheers

Try cleaning the MAF sensor by soaking in IPA overnight and then drying it out completely before reconnection. If that doesn't work do an airpath calibration with SDD or other proper JLR diagnostic tools.
