Though the OP has a 2007 model GS, he asked where the 4wd switch (TR?) "is on this model". not his apparently as the GS does, especially 2007 my PC is slightly to the right of Genghis
2012 HSE SD4 In Orkney Grey now gone, best car ever.

England 2009 Freelander 2 TD4 GS Manual Stornoway Grey

It is indeed an s model. It also came without the retractable boot cover and a few other things as well. I recall they were made until at least 2009 when the TD4_e engine facelift came in. It gave LR a cheap starting from price when the FL2 was launched

4wd will not be affected thats down to the haldex. special programmes are not adjustable just set in one all encompassing average setting.

perfectly good for most motoring but just not cricket really, we all love playing with a knob At work

Yep, many members have had the "S" model. Some even tried (don't know if succesfully) to fit the terrain response themselves.

Think the Terrain Response came standard on all models from MY11 until then it was only the "S" model that didn't have it.

Freelander without Terrain Response is a remarkably capable vehicle and can go pretty much anywhere a Terrain Response equipped version can go. It just requires more driver input and skill to achieve the same result.

To go back to the OP, all Fr2s except recent specifically 2WD models have four wheel drive. It's not selectable. Don't confuse this with the terrain response control, which gives different 4WD settings for different situations. As rchrdleigh says, still a very capable car. I nearly bought one, but it had no cruise control, and that's something I use a lot. Ex AA Series III LWB Safari - Gone
300TDi Disco (bought new - terrible car) sent back after 18 months
Freelander 1 Estate - leased, given back at end of lease
200TDi Disco (bought from a mate with 100,000 on the clock) - Gone
Disco 2 TD5 - sold and exported to France
FR2 TD4 GS - Gone
FR2 SD4 HSE - Now changed for a DS
New model ex-demo Evoque S 180 in white
Unable to order a new DS, so gave up. Now have a Volvo S90 Recharge.
