Does anybody know how to check the viscous coupling is working ok, I have heard you need have Freelander in full lock and reversing, is this right :?: Not quite sure what to expect if it has failed.

Cheers  :)

not quite

jack up one back wheel & with a 3ft breaker bar should be able to turn the wheel very slowly,if you cant turn the wheel its (EDIT),the reversing on full lock on a gravel surface can show its a bit tighter than it should be but jacking one wheel up is the better way   :wink:

schuee:
Thanks for that  :)

ours also complains when u apply full left or right lock but i always assumed it was just because of the sharpness of the turn it needed bit more power to move

Dave:
The garage had a look put two bars in the front and rear props moved them opposite way and the viscos moved, chap said thats fine. But the rear diff is shot and all the mounting rubber around it. Both front CV's are clicking, need doing. So it is booked in for tuesday at midland 4x4.
 mud-club matty is going to do it.  :wink:

mud-club-matty:
hey dave do you trust me to do it lol  :D
