Mines a 57 reg and never had an advisory I’m quite proud of that it’s always a relief when it passes.

England 2013 Freelander 2 SD4 HSE Lux Auto Firenze Red

Mine passed today. Another 13 months before I need to do it again Very Happy

I went to a busy little local garage near me as, after last year’s fiasco with unnecessary and expensive work allegedly required at a main dealer, I won’t ever let a main dealer MoT test my car again.

Advisory - not recorded...
Pin hole in N/s track rod end boot. I booked it in to have it replaced immediately so it hasn’t been recorded. About £25 to supply and fit. The the chap says they are a generic part. I looked on line for genuine LR with no success so I’ll let him fit his own part.


Advisory - Recorded

Monitor and repair if necessary (advisories):
engine cover and sill covers fitted

That is all it says and it is not something I have seen before. No doubt I means something but I’ll ask when I drop the car off for the track rod end boot.

Mine was done last week. Car is 9 years old. Has failed once due to excessive play in anti roll bar links (or something like that) and this year got a shed load of advisories for corrosion Big Cry FL2 TD4 GS 60 reg Facelift - so many issues
2019 DS. Terribly unreliable.
Sold DS for a 2021 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV. Fingers crossed....
Sold Outlander for a 2014 SD4 SE Tech because I’m mental
Now greatly regret selling the Outlander. MPG of the FL2 is atrocious and so are the fuel bills. Fun though 😎
Couldn’t afford the fuel bills so back to an older Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV. Significantly better than I remembered it to be…
