Had exactly the same fault on Wednesday. Took the car to my garage where they came up with same answer.

I would start at page 1526 of the freebie JLR manual. search on this forum If yours has a DPF then there are 2 exhaust temp sensors and one heated oxygen sensor. Jules |

As yours is a 2010 model, it will probably have a DPF. As mentioned above, should have two temperature sensors on the exhaust, one either side of the DPF. However as you are using a basic OBD reader, that code could be wrong. Now at the point when I learn something new something old is lost out the other side !

If you have a DPF there are two EGT sensors one pre cat next to the O2 sensor the other one on the front end of the DPF

Just ordered this so it does both my Discovery 2 and the Freelander https://www.diagnostic-world.com/pages/lis...tem_135364 Ive got about 4 code readers now, two i got to use on an old Hyundai Coupe my wife had with an air bag fault, and none of them worked even though i was told they would work and now three for the Land Rovers |

Good reviews with the Icarsoft. I have the Icarsoft CR Max. Supposed to do most manufacturers etc. So far so good. Used it on Freelander, Renault and Citroen.👍 Now at the point when I learn something new something old is lost out the other side !

It will come as no surprise since we are talking Freelander 2. They are both awkward to get to needing a 14mm sensor socket ( I bought the set )for the EGT ones. or you could just cut them off low and put a 14mm six sided socket on them, if you do cut them off you can put the new ones back in with a spanner, slow process. No matter what you do you will need heat preferably Mapp gas so get that before you try getting them off. Best of luck with them |

just had alok underneath the Freelander today to get a view of these sensors and i noticed the rubber hose had perished and worn away, so i guess this is the cause f it going into limp mode
