Yeah, there are two systems as quoted elsewhere: Unfortunately I don't think either is an option for the Freelander, only 'Hitch Assist' a poor relation.

TOW ASSIST

Quote:

The 'tow assist' function (selected from the touch screen menu) helps perform accurate towing manoeuvres. The wide field of views on the side cameras give a clear view of the reversing trailer: the images are electronically manipulated to provide an undistorted view, with guide lines overlaid on the rear camera image to illustrate both the vehicle and trailer's trajectory.

Specific characteristics such as type of trailer, number of axles and width guides can be fed into the system to enhance the system outputs.

Quote:

Trailer Stability Assist, detects trailer oscillations by monitoring key vehicle behaviours, such as uninvited steering movements and slight vehicle swing in response to trailer behaviour. In these circumstances, the system can initiate engine torque reduction and braking interventions to bring the towing back under control

Thanks Dave

cg i do not think i will need to do that,had a x-trail before and had no issues with towing so i am sure my fl2 will surpass.

okay so back from a short break and i was more than happy with the way my fl2 towed my caravan,it was effortless to say the least with no problems encountered either too or from my destination,very pleased.
