Finland 2011 Range Rover Sport 3.0 TDV6 HSE Nara Bronze

Is there still any idea what’s causing this crankshaft failure. How it can be avoided? When reading these posts from different forums, I’ve started to be a little worry and think to get rid of my RRS. Is thecertain type of oil the key or is there some other ways to keep my wheels running? I have heard that it will be eur 20k in here..

I would not be surprised if this is a manufacturing process defect. Especially if the failures are all the same. Perhaps something like nitrogen imbrittlement during the casting and forging process. 2019 5.0 SC SVA (Current)
