United Kingdom 2007 Freelander 2 TD4 GS Manual Stornoway Grey

Thanks for your responses, I feel better knowing that this may be a more know about fault!

That said, it was the worst it's ever been today, had a number of jolts and on one the car lost power for a couple of seconds and the warning "Reduced Engine Performance" came up for the first time. This was on a busy motorway doing 70, rev counter dropped by 300rpm and suddenly lost a bit of speed because of this. Taking it easy with the car now until it's resolved!

I normally use a local land rover specialist mechanic to service my car, but with a problem like this i'm not sure if they'll have the technical know how particularly if it's to do with a drive chain sensor or if it needs a software update etc as they are more used to fixing older LRs. At the same time my local LR dealer wants �180 just to look at my car and this doesn't guarantee they'll diagnose the problem! Might have to take the hit and go to LR....


MINE WAS ALSO A CRANK SHAFT SENSOR - RAC MANAGED TO CLEAN IT ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, HAD A NEW ONE REPLACED DAY AFTER AND NO FURTHER PROBLEMS...

England 2007 Freelander 2 TD4 HSE Manual Zermatt Silver

instead of raising a new thread, I have tagged onto this one, similar /same problem.

rarely used car since March, ¼ tank of diesel left in since last filled up, had a couple of short trips ie 6 or 7 miles, car goes perfectly well, then suddenly it jolts ferociously a few times, very like someone slamming the brakes on, no error messages no obvious signs of faults. . . .

QUESTION : - Am I being too optimistic in thinking its only because of lack of use, and perhaps a fresh tank of diesel and a good 50 mile trip would cure it.???

Reading this post, I see 2 possible causes, the EGR valve or the Crankshaft sensor, I have no great desire to rush out and get it fixed at present, but out of interest what would be a good source for a reasonable EGR valve price if that were the culprit , I see prices vary from maybe £50 - £250 . . . ( Censored ridiculous).

I have also read that if it is the EGR valve, it would probably have a very rough idle, which mine does not.

Thanks for listening . . . ???? Or maybe not as it appears no-one has . . . . Rolling with laughter Rolling with laughter Rolling with laughter . . . 2017 SEAT Ateca 4drive 2.0 xcellence (May 2022 -

@ Northcroft,

I had this months ago, you would notice it more after gearchanges (auto), it was the crank sensor. I used a bluetooth OBD and a mobile phone app called garage pro (android) and it said crankshaft sensor fault code, deleted it, I driven it for a few days and as soon as the jolt was felt again the code had reappeared. It has been fine since, never driven so well.
