Experience Owner of a Discovery. I've had many mishaps with our Disco but I still like this vehicle. Talk to a fellow LR owner instead of a dealership rep. I'm not in this for the money. I'm just an owner who wants to help others.
Question The battery is going flat after a couple of days the man from the AA says there is a leakage from it. The immobilizer light flashes when you open the door and when you put the key in it goes off.
It is 2002 diesel Freelander premium.
Answer Hi Rodney,
see if the battery can hold a charge. Most car part shops will test your battery and alternator (generator in UK?) to see if there is a problem. If the alternator is not able to generate 12 volts or more, the battery will slowly weaken. Solve the battery problem and you'll probably solve the immobilizer light too.
