    Alarm fault 2011 TDV8

    Hello folks, turns out my range rover, after a time of no faults has decided to baffle me and others. Was leaving the house to go to the airport to go back to work, and leave my range rover parked for a few weeks at home, hit the lock button on the fob and was about to walk out the door when...

    Strange noise when under acceleration, diesel engine

    By sounds of it this could be more likely, but as hippo says, check all your clips and pipes. If it is a turbo problem, don't drive it on until it fails completely, this can fill your engine block with bits of the turbo, and it really, really doesn't like that.

    What did you do with your Range Rover today

    Funny enough that's not the reason why I went for a fresher one, was looking (and budgeting) for an earlyish td6. However, any I could find we're, lets just say they weren't well loved. And frankly too expensive for something that's going to need 2-3k spent on a gearbox refurb. Hence TDV8. I...

    Big mistake

    Evening all, Had a day off work today so I went vogue shopping!! Been to see 10 different l322's today. All described as immaculate and in full working order. 5 of them I didn't even get inside as they were that rough looking through the windows, 2 had a shudder at 50mph, and two were way...

    td6 Injectors

    They probably weren't worried about soot at that stage, egr is for reducing NOx from exhaust emissions. If its anything like tractor and lorry emissions, they worried about the excess soot produced from this "cleaner" combustion at the next stage, by adding a particulate filter(DPF). This...

    Is a TDV8 worth it?

    Hmm, won't be that bad, still got the defender for the 30,000 a year, done 4000 last year in my weekend car. Getting my 90 back on Monday, the final trip to the main dealer for some warranty work, took them two weeks to sort it out. Warranty is pretty good with them, that's three years and...
