As already mentioned on a similar earlier thread, its a good idea to grease your nuts during late autumn. They wont look very nice after a while as they will soon get very dirty, but dirty greasy nuts are surely better than rusty ones. When spring arrives you can give them a quick scrub and brush up, your nuts will shine like new Laughing 2007 Freelander 2 HSE TD4 Manual with Premium Pack & Moonroof.

dealer has agreed to change my NUTS. But the new ones will do the same. I will hunt for some good quality aftermarket versions. I think Land Rover need to chase this up with their supplier

I tried greasing my nuts with Castrol Axle Grease.
Although it made 'em nice and smooth they still wont work like they used too Rolling with laughter Another member of the failed FL2 clutch/DMF club, twice.
