Hey guys,
Having had my 07 plate XS for just 2 years, and having all kinds of annoying niggles, I've decided to change it.
I decided to give the Freelander another go, in the hope that the niggl ... |

Good spot Andy!
I've had a rattle for a while now and, after reading your post, while I had the bonnet up to fill up the washer bottle I thought I'd have a look and see if your explanation was a po ... |

Well I managed to fit the kit this afternoon. All seems to work ok so far!
I had to modify the install a bit - the instructions tell you to screw the usb cable holder to the bracket that holds the ... |

Thanks for that - looks like a good alternative to drilling a hole in the dash!
Where do you run the cable from the cradle to the ACM module? Looks like it goes round behind the steering column som ... |

Thanks David,
if you've got a photo of the install that would be great.
I know it's not ideal to put the ipod in the glovebox but I'm not really keen on having the cradle etc in view on the dash ... |

Hi guys,
quick question for anyone that has fitted the ipod kit in their Freely.
For the older type of kit - the one that comes with the ipod cradle - do you have to use the cradle? Or can you j ... |

I do not understand what problem you have....
Is that under seat storage area in all Freelander 2's? Or is it something that is only on recent model year vehicles? |

Good thinking guys - I've not really looked under the boot floor (other than to quickly check that the spare was present and in good order).
I'll have a peek later and see what sort of space there ... |

Have had my Freely for a couple of weeks, and until now I hadn't realised that tools were needed to change a headlight bulb (haven't had one go just been reading the handbook).
So I'm now thinking ... |

Thanks for that - I'll keep an eye out.
For less than 100 I don't mind if it isn't the perfect solution - i.e. no display on the radio screen etc.
Don't suppose you could pm me the details of th ... |

Thanks for the info npinks - I'll have a look at the Disco forums and see if I can find anything there.
Before I get as far as buying the kits I want to try and get an idea of whether I'll actually ... |

Hi guys,
I'm thinking of getting hold of one of the audio connectivity modules (VPLAE0001) to fit into my XS.
Has anybody fitted one of these? Is it a difficult job to do?
What functions does ... |

Those are exactly my reasons for asking the questions mike.
This 4x4 lark is all new to me so I wanted to get some info rather than just assume 4x4 means it will stick to anything.
I think I wil ... |

Thanks everyone - I shall stick to using GG+Snow setting then and drive it like it's made of glass.
Fortunately (or unfortunately) we don't get many snowy days in these parts. Even the last couple ... |

Hi guys,
I've had my Freely for about 10 days now - got it just in time for this latest snowfall.
My previous car was a Focus ST and was brilliant in the dry or the wet but a nightmare on anythi ... |
