Defender Recall

extra_strong_mint · Apr 28, 2015

I've just had phone call from the dealer. Our Defender (2012) is being recalled by the manufacturer for a possible oil pump fault.

Does anyone know about this issue?

2.2?

Ford transit 2.2's were recalled for an oil pump issue.

Yes, 110 2.2

Puma engines (used across many manufacturers) are recalled due to the possibility of the oil pump failing.

I work for a Citroen garage and we are doing a few of these on Relay vans

Found a thread on another web forum, the recall is for vehicles in the vin range LD405037 to 443988. I'm off to check my vin!!

Bugger - mine is in that range. On the bright side it needs an oil change, so hopefully get a free one (again, last one was on account of a faulty oil cooler).

Sorry to resurrect this thread - but has anyone else had a recall? My vin also falls into this category, I'm going to contact the dealer and make enquiries? I'm leaking oil so a good opportunity!
