Phish, Would a petition/mass complaint to LR work? If you think it is worth a try please count me in.

Anybody else out there want to join in?

My 07 does this in heavy rain. Mentioned to the dealers every time i've been there - same answer no report of a fault on the ecu so no problem they even spayed the car for ages and could not recreate the problem. Until I take it in with the fault nothing will be done.
mcphersonstrut how about making this thread a Poll to see just how many people on here have this problem.

Whistle

think keeping poll simple is best and aim it towards those that have had problem and to find out if the fix fixed, or failed etc Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

The car has had new front and rear sensors a while back, a new ECU, and in the last weeks apparently a new wiring loom to the front and rear...I take their word for it and don't actually look under the car to see if I can see anything new.
Bill, we had the LR towbar fitted before we picked it up so can't tell if the fault 'arrived' when it was fitted, as for a bulletin, I don't believe there is one.
Question to all: Anyone without a tow bar/electrics fitted having issues with the parking sensors ?


Yep, me. I have a 2007 XS (which has front and rear sensors) and no towbar, yet

I am about to fit one (could do with some tips on what make cos the LR is now £623 ouch!). Only had the car a week so still in the wash the car weekly phase but maybe this isn't helping if the sensors are prone to water ingress.
When in reverse rear sensor is often a continuous tone, and loud! Goes off when I press "sensor off" button. It is an intermittent fault but annoying when it happens.

United Kingdom 2007 Freelander 2 TD4 SE Manual Sumatra Black

I was very diligent in my testing before I had a fixed towbar fitted to my SE. I had already been experiencing wet weather continuous/erratic tones and didn't want to cause new issues with a towbar. I checked how far from the bumper I could position a vertical 2x2 timber before the rear sensors 'saw' it. I was able to get almost a foot away so had a Witter bar fitted which sits maybe 7" out. No problems whatsoever with the bar being present, except for existing wet weather issues which persist and are largely related to the front sensors anyway.

By the way, a Witter fixed bar does not require any bumper cutting - some others do - beware.

My LandRover removable tow bar has Brink badges on it...... get a quote for a brink from a specialist rather than through LR.

Brink is model brand marketed by Thule of Sweden.
Land Rover markets Brink as its own brand and who is presumably supplied by Thule.

Brink = Thule = Land Rover Thumbs Up 2007 Freelander 2 HSE TD4 Manual with Premium Pack & Moonroof.
