Hi, thanks for letting me be a membee

🌟HELP PLEASE🌟 TDV6 RRS 89K MILES.

I WAS DRIVING AND THE RANGE ROVER LOST ALL POWER AND A CLUNKING GRINDING NOISE CAME FROM UNDERNEATH GEAR BOX AREA (I THINK) I SLOWED FROM 50MPH TO 10MPH THEN THE CAR STOPPED ITS SELF ABRUPTLY. I PULLED OVER AND A BIT OF A BURNING SMELL AND SMOKE CAME FROM PASSANGER SIDE OF BONNET . YHE POQER LOSS WAS FROM TRANSMITION FAULT SOME WHERE AS THE CAR STARTS UP AND TEVS FINE, NOW WHEN I DRIVE THE CAR 1-2 MPH IT IS CLUNKING / BANGING UNDERNEATH I THE GEAR BOX/ TRANSFER BOX / DIFF AREA.
ANY IDEAS? THANKS

With those noises I would not be starting the car at all.
Two options take out a bank loan or scrap the car.

I think I would look at the propshaft first if it only makes the noise when you try to move. 2010 RRS, TDV8

Many years ago,,,,, 1955 series 1 landie , sometimes wish I had kept it

I haven't looked under the vehicle in depth just yet but there was smoke from under the bonnet could the prop cause this? There was no skidding to cause smoke by the way. Prop was my first thought by the way. Regards

Check driveshaft pasenger side No friends no favours

Didn't think of that. I will have a look in the morning. Are the drive shafts prone for going on rrs?

They can and do go hope it's
An easy fix whatever has gone
Good luck No friends no favours
