Title: Starter Motor and Ring
Post by: dmcgoo on November 28, 2005, 17:57:32: How long should it take a Land Rover dealership to change a starter motor and ring on a MK2 Freelander? My local dealership have had my Freelander for over a week now after it failed to start, only had it for a few weeks ! I wouldn't mind but every time I call them they tell me should be ready tomorrow!

They ought to be at least telling you what is going on though :?
