Try checking the belts. Have you ever gone off-road with it?

Hello, have you heard of http://www.lastchanceautorepairs.com they work on Land Rover's. Where you from? Any luck with your issue. The belt is more than likely garbage. Does the belt seem to be cracked up? Look close!

get a new accessory belt 99% of the time it causes a slip(squeel) when getting wornout if the new belt does the same it could be an accessory going bad and slipping on the belt
