Could be a hub bush. They squeak when worn. I doubt it would be warranty work if it is. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders

At least now all genuine LR parts are guaranteed for 2 years.

There is that Johnski but I can't believe a set of bushes can't even last a year! Sub standard parts really. You would think that Land Rover would have modified them by now being as they are a know problem area!

Less worried about the bushes as the ARBs themselves. My rear one has a heavy weep... |

Just spent 2k on new EGRs, 8 glow plugs, an inlet plenum and intercooler (both split). Need to buy 4 tyres for the trip. Going to pack a litre of PAS fluid for the trip. |

You may be pleased to know that the new model isn't any better when it comes to consuming the bushes. Mine had the front ARB bushes changed a few months ago. The car was just 1.5 year old and had only done 14k miles at the time ![]() They weren't noisy all the time and as is typical, didn't do it in front of the techie no matter how much we tried. I had to record it when it occurred and take the car back to them. But there was no way I was going to live with it or wait for it to get worse on a car like this!

The ARB bushes are arily by how fast you go in and out of corners/round-abouts as that's when they're under load.
