I am new to landrover and recently bought a 2000 1.8i freelander I have covered approx 4000 miles trouble free untill this evening when a noise from the gearbox started. It sounds like the noise made when reverse is not fully engaged. the sound happens in all 5 gears when accelerating but stops when the clutch is engaged and the vehicle is freewheeling. is there a common fault with freelander gearboxes such as those with the cylinder head, rear diffs etc. any help and advice would greatfully received and I will try to answer any questions...

As the lack of replies signifies, no, not a problem.

Sounds like the clutch release bearing, perhaps?

Thanks for your reply, please forgive my ignorance I'm more familiar to two wheels, is there a way of confirming this to be the trouble and if it indeed is the problem is it going to be costly ?
