2007 GEARBOX ISSUES
Hi
Has anyone had any problems with their gearbox on the new 2007 model?

Mine stuck in reverse after 5 weeks (pin stuck in selector) although the gear stick felt as though it was in neutral!! This happened again when the car was 8 weeks old.

Land rover replaced the gearbox! I have no explanation for why it needed a gearbox so quickly.

It drives much better now, so there was obviously an issue.

Cheers

Had my 110xs tdci just over a month/2200 miles now - generally so far so good, but there's always been a slight whistle from 4th gear - anyone else had that? 1953 80

Hi Ray, your right now on gearbox number 4, clutch 4 and transfer box 2. Got back from Morocco ok though after 5.5k miles of fun. Minor issues to go in for but nothing to put me off. Thumbs Up Whats broken now ?
