L322 Off to a good start...NOT

I have owned this 10 plate, 67k RR TDV8 for only 4 weeks. It was trouble free for the first two and after returning from Ypres via the Tyne a warning appeared saying ‘Reduced performance” The earliest I could get it back to the dealer was two weeks later, part his and mine for such a long time. However, diagnostics say it is the electric motor on the NS turbo either seized or open circuit and would have to go to a specialist Land Rover garage for a body removal as they cannot do this work. Fortunately it is covered by the guarantee.

Thanks for sharing

Body doesn't come of an L322

But sub frame/engine cradle can be lowered.

My car is back from the garage. The fault was with the NS turbo actuator linkage being seized. The body did not have to be removed after all as these linkages can be accessed, free'd and lubricated after removing the front wheel and the exhaust heat shields.

A lucky escape then, pleased it turned out well for you.
