United Kingdom 2010 Range Rover Sport Supercharged HSE Santorini Black

And reports of the 3.0 in the L405 also failing...

Wouldn't be a huge issue if a replacement engine was reasonably priced. I know of cars being scrapped due to being uneconomical to repair Big Cry

Sounds like LR need to be subjected to a concerted social media campaign. That'll get picked up by the MSM and the bad publicity should get LR's senior management on the case.

The cost of LR's engines is the one thing that worries me with my TDV8. If the engine fails it'll be the scrap yard for the vehicle. Spending 10-15k to put a new engine in is not going to happen in a 10k vehicle. Big Cry 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed
