Hi All,
the gas struts on the tailgate of my freelander 2 have started getting lazy and I got bonked on the head a couple of weeks back!

I was interested to know whether replacing the wires fixed the problem with crank sensors dying well and good.
Yep it stayed fixed thankfully! |

On this topic people are installing and talking about fitting an (additional) oil separator.
The car's oil separator is below the oil cap. In fact, when you pour the oil, it passes through the same o ... |

on the landyzone forum someone has pointed out that the shudder could well be the torque converter clutch in the auto box. Google had hinted to me that was a possibility, though I had hoped not.

I have a strange and ongoing issue with my freelander 2 (2007 2.2 auto) which I am wondering if anyone else has encountered and solved?
