Exactly that happened to me a few years ago, driving the 2002 Freelander TD4 (with the BMW motor), and it turned out to be the fuel injectors.

It's been reported a small number of times on here... could've been pretty dangerous. Take it to the dealer and let them know how you were nearly killed - they should pay attention |

The simple answer was............mucky fuel filter, every time I floored the throttle, the necessary amount of fuel didn't get through and the management system decided it would be best to go into limp mode!

Do you buy your fuel from the same place all the time - might be worth taking it up with them if you do. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

I had similar once on the last RRS - was a throttle sensor on the accelerator pedal |

This happened to me, on the day I picked up the car 17th Dec 2005, nearly kiiled my whole family as we lost power on a round -a bout, we had stopped twice on this wholly moterway journey as we had the full dash full of lights....the car was returned to LR on the 19th when we return home, it did the same on the return journey, fail..then drive ok then you would loose power again without notice, LD took the car back and I did not seemy new moter until the 24th Dec....

I took mine in on the 5th of February for this very same fault. They said it was the gas valves so replaced them, finally got it back on Friday 13th (after problems with the Courtesy car too |
