    Smile Hood lining

    Its age related, and we all sag a bit as we get older.

    The interior hood lining is starting to sag over the drivers and passengers head. Approx 25% of the total so far.

    How do we fix it ??
    Who are the experts in such matters ?
    Where do I put the centre tent pole ?

    I believe it a common problem with Discos as well.

    Despite how common it seems in disco's, I can't remember a case in a freelander. However, easy option is to take it to your local auto trimmers, and get it removed and relined. That what i did with both our disco's, and looks good. No more problems.

    Hasnt happened to the freelander yet tho...

    Does seem odd for a Freelander - mine is nearly 11 years old and has done 250,000km and lived outside for most of its life. Its lining is still as firm as a young ladies - well you know.

    Anyway an auto trimmer can help - it doesn't cost a lot to correct the disco problems.
