Land Rover Freelander: Jewelry There are diamonds such as Rang Rover in the model range of the famous British Land Rover brand, and there are simpler models, one of which, the Freelander, can be safely attributed to elite jewelry. Such cars are closer to those who appreciate charm. The cute compact SUV Land Rover Freelander is generally worthy of its more respectable fellow tribesmen - it is comfortable, fast enough, richly equipped, equipped with several electronic systems responsible for safety and off-road capability on bad roads. Basic minimum (version E): airbag, electric windows and mirrors, adjustable steering wheel and lumbar support for the driver, folding rear seat in parts, CD-receiver. The maximum equipment (HSE version) includes air conditioning, heated seats in leather or Alcanatar, an electrified sunroof, parking sensors, high-quality "music" with a CD changer. The only "but" is the lack of real off-road attributes. The car has a https://cars45.com.gh/listing/land_rover/freelander  monocoque body, permanent front wheel drive and rear viscous coupling, HDC hill descent braking system and ETC traction control system, simulating differential locks. The Freelander's body is made of steel. Thanks to double-sided galvanizing, it resists corrosion well. The front fenders are molded from impact-resistant polymer, and the windshield is from another, also damage-resistant plastic - polycarbonate. The three-door body, which has the same base as the five-door, is equipped with a removable upper rear section. It can be made either from fabric (softtop version) or plastic (hardtop). There is also a variant of a "three-door" with a metal rear part without windows, but such vans are not found in Ukraine. Folding knots for the soft awning and the fastening locks of the rigid when driving over bumps can emit a knock. Passengers are also annoyed by the inadequate soundproofing of the cabin for a car of this class. Landing in the driver's seat is high, so the view from behind the wheel is good. In the three-door modification, thanks to the wide door, it is quite convenient to sit on the back sofa. It fits three without any problems. The interior is finished with quality materials that do not make noise and still do not look worn on many copies. The trunk is roomy, so the car is liked by those who need transport with a large universal body. The most common Freelander engine in our country is a 1.8-liter petrol (117 hp) Rover engine. Active drivers find it too weak for this car. Lovers of mud, in turn, complain about the lack of torque. More powerful British-made V-sixes (similar to those installed on the Rover 75 and Rover 825 sedans) are not particularly common in Ukraine. Freelander diesels are quite high-torque: "Rover" with a capacity of 98 liters. with. (until 2001), and replaced by the more reliable Td4 (112 HP) produced by BMW. The service life of all types of power units has not yet been worked out, although in Ukraine there is a Freelander that has run 200-250 thousand km. However, some of the engines, especially the 1.8-liter ones, were overhauled due to overheating. Engines warm up when drivers try to storm serious off-road conditions or drive on the highway at maximum speed for a long time. There are no particularly complex and original units in these units. But serious repairs must be trusted by "branded" specialists who know specific nuances - for example, the peculiarities of the fit of the liners in the cylinder block or the way of access to candles and other systems of the V6 engine. This large unit could hardly fit under the hood - the designers slightly lengthened the "nose" of the car. It is recommended to change the timing belts (together with rollers!) On gasoline engines and in British diesel engines after 80 thousand kilometers. In the Bavarian diesel engine, the camshafts are driven by almost perpetual chains. Diesel engines do not create any specific problems in operation. The transmission, like in many SUVs, is a transversely installed power unit, combined with the main gearbox (5 speed) or automatic transmission (4-speed or 6-speed), a viscous coupling that automatically connects the rear axle when the front end slips. The version with a 1.8 liter engine was not equipped with an “automatic”. Boxes of both types have not yet caused complaints from the owners and service station masters. They only need an oil change every 60 thousand km. The CV joints of both bridges, provided that the anthers are intact, serve at least 200 thousand km.
