After my second service when the software upgrade was done I promised to come back to the forum with my view. I can't find the old links to the subject so here it is under a new heading!

Sounds like similar issues to that discussed in the thread which resulted in the "additional earth connection(s)".

That doesnt sound right ! I would make sure there are no fault codes in ECU that is making it run on "reduced performance " even though its not displayed on dash.

Hi Old geezer, Im I missing something in land rover updates or was it your own decision to put an earth strap to gearbox/engine. I am taking my 08 fl2 back to dealer on tuesday will they have heard of this fix? Freelander 2 TD4 GS Auto with Winter Pack, Stornaway Grey, Ebony, Grey Mirror Caps.

Hi, no its not a known fix. Out of desperation and lack of confidence in two dealerships after several visits , left it there two weeks once ! I looked into the battery voltage at cranking and discovered it was dropping down to around 7 volts ! that got me thinking thats why the faults are flagging up !. I then put an anolouge volt meter between the neg battery post and the engine and hit the starter button, now technically there should of been a zero reading on the meter and the most allowed on an earth curcuit is around .03 of a volt ! well i had over 3 volts ! so that means a 3 volt drop across an earth. i then looked at the cables from the battery and the earth cable goes to the body and another cable ftrom the body about a metre away goes to the g/box ! well in my experince an earth disaster waiting to happen especially as most body panels are glued these days so continuity aint going to be great !

Thanks for that info, very informative. Although I haven't had as many display faults as you I Have certainly experienced Two low votage & non starting conditions, HDC falure when cold and the dreaded auto box slip. Going into dealers tomorrow so will see what they say but now out of warranty so will probably try the earth strap any way. many thanks for your reply.

Hi guys - I'm new to this forum lark so please bare with me. Had this issue when I bought my FL2 auto hse december 2010 and stratstones took 3 attempts to run an update before fixing it. However I've just had it back in to have an update so that it recognises the new tow bar and they told me it needed a recall update aswell ie. Q106, v2 I'm assuming. My issue is that when I got it back the next day the display was flashing around and breaking up. Has anyone else experienced this issue? I'd seen on the forum others with display issues when the battery has been disconnected, but Stratstone say they didn't disconnected the battery, and that the clock is reset to 00:00 by the update not loss of power. They also say its nothing to do with the upgrade and that the displays can go at any time and if I want a new one it'll be £800 thankyou very much. Any help much appreciated. |

If you bought new in December 2010 then it is still under warranty and if faulty should be replaced.
