Cheers Col, so you think it's the Supercharger coupler?

Can't really answer that, only remember reading the tsb a while back so thought it may be a possibility, little bit of work but might be worth removeing the s/c belt and run it up to see if noise goes away first before start ripping the engine apart.

Several firm do advertise a upgraded one piece coupling for the TVS 1900 S/C which does away with the torsion spring which I believe is the main problem with the o.e. coupling failing, it might be advisable to strip it out first as you may find the shaft and bearings worn as well as the coupler, in that case you may be best ordering a snout o/haul kit.

Hmm, apparently this is not a good idea, as @Rayodunne said:

Your original sprung one lasted almost 9 years, just use an OEM one. lol 2009 Range Rover Sport Supercharged |
