I have a 2002 freelander with a 2.5 v6 and Im getting a p1475 code it also has hard acceleration and very hard shifts at times could anyone please help, it also has 70000 miles.

 

the code is for your vis motors, replace them as a pair, easy to do, should fix the accel problem, as far as shifting goes, they have big issues with the transmissions, and with that milage you need to get your timing belts replaced

 

i have a similar problem ie code P1475. I NEED TO ASK, WHAT ARE VIS MOTORS AND WHERE ARE THEY LOCATED

 

Both are mounted to the upper intake manifold plenum. Take off the silencer cover, and you will find them on the plenum near the coolant tank. They have one electrical connection and mount with four screws. The one nearest the tank and mounted vertical is the balance motor. The one closest to the front of the vehicle is the power motor and controls the annoying power valves which often come loose from the control arm and rattle inside the manifold.

 

ok thanx
