2008 Freelander 2 TD4 GS Manual Narvik Black
FOB

I mentioned on here that I have been having problems with locking/unlocking my vehicle. It became intermittent, and was a right pain. I took the fob apart to see if I could find anything 'wrong' inside it. First, I took the circuit board out and tried to lock/unlock the vehicle, and it worked. So I could only think that the fob is worn where it touches the little buttons on the circuit board. I put a small piece of wooden lollypop stick in the rubber recesses by the buttons, then closed the fob but did not glue it. I then tried it again on the vehicle and it worked. I can actually here the buttons 'click'.
How long it will last is anybody's guess, but for now it seems to be okay. The fob looks like a terrier has attacked it, but it works. I may buy a new fob off Ebay.
