MY 2011 Freelander 2 Automatic oil/filter change

Hi there,

Looked at doing this myself but it looks a bit beyond my home set up, anyone recommend anywhere in north Shropshire?

Any garage will carry out a oil/filter change for you it’s not rocket science, just make sure they use the correct oil.

Yeah, sorry about that.

Looking for a reliable place to get my Automatic Transmission fluid and filter changed around North Shropshire.

Search on here if you want to do the fluid change yourself, as loads of us have done it - Full flush or the easier dump and fill method.

Alternatively, whenever someone asks a well know 'Honest' motoring journalist this question he always tells them to get it done by a specialist who is a member of Fedauto / Fate. FL2 HSE Auto Galway Green

It's the Aisin 6 speed box and Chester Automatics (who did it for me 35K mile ago) tell me it will cost £130+VAT and that because of the filter design and placement they rely upon the new fluid flushing through to 'clean' the filter?
