Yes if it wasn't for the adapters they would fit perfect. Fronts all round would work I'm still considering buying two.

Freelander still not happy after having changed an injector a few weeks ago so did a few other checks to eliminate some of the other possibilities. Compression check was all good and gave me the opportunity to clean out the inlet manifold, both of which weren't terribly gummed up anyway. Cleaned out the DPF but again, nothing that showed a problem. Still no codes that indicate anything wrong with the fuel system so back to another leak check for a longer time frame and varying the revs / fuel demand.

Seen that, I'm hoping he's as honest as I was with the buyer

Genuine Laguna Splitter
Checked last night that the top of the fuel pump was dry which is was but I am still getting a whiff of fuel so will monitor
Fault scanned the rest of the car and cleared all
Did a basic setting reset/prime on the haldex pump as the car is still bringing on traction control when accelerating however, I am not feeling it if you know what I mean. Will monitor this too
Need to get the DSG serviced and that's the car back to square 1
I had similar traction issues on the golf previously and ended up with a new diff
Yeah it has crossed my mind as well but could hear the haldex pump whirring when I did the basic reset - other than that, I can't hear or feel anything different.
Did you have any other symptoms?
Did have this code though, was green and not red on OBD11 and its cleared

Mechanical Malfunction
Haldex was serviced recently hence why i did the relearn function just to rule that out - car drives fine otherwise
Just currently having a bad time with it

I had the traction error off and on for about a year, mostly when the roads were wet and had the haldex and diff oil changed about 4,000 miles before it went bang. No symptoms other than that. It literally just seized on me one day without warning. Slight squeal and the rear locked up. I was very lucky that I was just leaving a 30 when it happened.
I have nothing like that (yet) and the traction light coming on isn't a fault, just the normal light flashing when you lose traction however, I don't feel like I am. Strange behaviour for sure.
