I have just fitted the Halfords 9005 HB3 90+ bulbs - it will be interesting to see whether they are any better
Replaced my Halfords ones after 6 months/ 6k miles. I guess it doesn't help that the ... |

I had similar issues with the low battery voltage warning. There is a bug in the body control module of some my13 cars which affects the battery charging. I got the dealer to update, and have not seen ... |

We do appear to have lost the heated windscreen feature. One of the key things that made my mind up about the Freelander in the first place. Only Volvo and Ford to choose from now, then. Once you've d ... |

Just got back from the dealers after my first service. Happy with the price - under £300 all in, which isn't bad for the South East, I gather. Invoice included the usual unnecessary screenwash and a d ... |

My only worry was the 19" wheels, and loss of performance in snow. Haven't had chance to prove this one way or the other yet, but in every other respect my dynamic is superb and gets admiring loo ... |

It's not just you, anyway. I've found exactly the same thing on my 2010 xS, but strangely don't notice it so much on the 2013 dynamic. Seats are different, so maybe its just the older cars? |
