Scotland 2007 Freelander 2 TD4 HSE Auto Stornoway Grey

11,000 miles since October 2007, 600 today. No problems apart from the bluetooth phone kit. Thinking of fitting nokia kit instead. MPG not great at about 30 on average, not as good as my XC90 but much better to drive. Would have needed a new set of tyres by now on the XC90 as well and FL2 tyres still look like new.

Overall delighted with the car Thumbs Up

I'm down to about 4mm of tread on the fronts and 5mm on the rears which I don't think is bad after 23000 mile with 6000 towing

I have the flat battery syndrome too

Took to the dealers a few days later and they did a 'software update',

Some people have said their Sat Nav and/or radio had remainded on, and they were told it was that what drained the battery. Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

Mileage, etc.

Over 11k miles now since June...an absolute delight.
Am convinced that towing (unmentionables to some of us) has bedded in the piston rings a lot faster than without. For an auto, you'd expect to use c-shift (in this car) to drop down a gear, but most of the time that's not necessary now, unless I'm in the Peak district, with the unmentionable.
Still not happy with fuel consumption, but I can live with it...too much fun to be had.
I do wish that LR had given some more thought to tyres. GoodYear were fitted to my FL1, and were crap. Same on this one. As soon as I changed to Michelin on the FL1, it was almost like driving another car.

For an instant and sustained increase in fuel economy simple reverse up to a cliff, unhitch the wobbly trailer, watch said wobble box fall to its destruction then drive away. (leaving the mother in law in the trailer is at your discretion but will also add to the economy)

Do a search on 'flat battery' and read the post started by Tandemman on 6/nov/07 along with my reply.

It might be the reason for your flat battery.

Had you too, left the vehicle un-alarmed for some while?

Cheers, Nazca Sand Eddie.

Interesting reading about the flat battery. Last night I let my husband touch my precious LR and unlock it to get something out of it and then lock it again.....I don't know if the alarm was set or not. Car seems fine now it's been jump started. I've taken it for a run to charge the battery up so will see how it is tomorrow. Thanks for the advice Very Happy Please let the car start!!!!!

I'm a little unsure about this locking/alarm thing 'one press locks, two presses alarms'. why not alarm on first press? Is it so you can nip into a shop and lock your wife,kids or dog in the fl2 without returning from the shop and finding your passengers sat in a flashing hooting car? (Mrs George hates that!)

I would prefer one click locks and alarms, second click deactivates the alarm leaving doors locked, As I'm not sure we will always remember to set the alarm each time. Mrs George may not agree but I would prefer an alarmed car to an angry wife once or twice a year! (or would I? Neutral )

So if I,m locking the house at night and I want to check the car is locked by pressing the fob button and watching for orange flashes in the garage window, How will I know whether the alarm is on or not? Rolling Eyes
