Actually I notice on mine that it sometimes has play and clunks and other times it doesn't.
Can't find any reason why this should be the case - it always gets the same good swift push into place and ... |

Any suggestions as to how I might ... |

So, given say an annual mileage of 10k that would save you about £200 per year on an overall running costs of £4k.
Why bother? Just enjoy it and stop worrying about fuel...or maybe buy a push bike? : ... |

The SD4 has more power but only comes as an auto for MY 13 onwards. However, it is probably best for towing.
If you are mostly dri ... |

According to the whispbar.co.uk website the k631 fitting kit (which allows you to use the FL2 mounting point)s is available in the UK. Does anyone have these bars with this fitting kit?

Freelanders have that effect on people - and if your TD4 made you smile, the SD4 will make you beam from ear to ear!
After 3.5 years of ownership of my SD4, I still smile very time I step foot in it. ... |
