Oil leak question L405 Vogue

Kace · Sep 8, 2018

Hi folks

New to the forum ,appreciate you taking the time to read my question.

Noticed a few drops of oil on the driveway today and took a couple photos from where I think it's coming from.

It's a 2014 range rover vogue v6.

Thanks ahead of time

All Land Rover products mark their territory. Never seen an L405 close up, seem not to sell well here in France, more Sports and Ejokes.

Maybe diff drain weeping. clean it knock it back a little and nip it back up. See what you get.

Couple of thoughts, have you had any work done recently, what is supposed to be on the threaded thing and have you wiped area clean to see where it comes from?

@Tigger Eeyore & Roo any thoughts on this one?

It's about the right time. First ones were 2013, so sounds about right

And with it being an L405 i'm guessing it'll be 10x more complicated than the L322..

Nice looking car though, shame they're already showing the signs!!!!

Judging by the reliability figures, many start breaking as soon as they leave the showroom.

More than likely to both

On another note @Kace , have you checked all your recalls have been done? Looks like there were four on the 2014 model
That's scary 1993-2014 4 pages of recall. 2014 -2018 4 pages of recalls !

If they get as far as the doors

I don't want to think what the RR section of Landyzone will look like a 10+ years!

I wager the L405 will be worse than the L322.

I’ll go with Wammer’s verdict here

Bit concerned about those electrical connectors. I’ve not got mine here to compare, but is the protective cover missing?

Thanks folks

Good point, first time I've noticed the electrical connectors bare. I'll follow up ASAP.

You may be some while some of the people from "the other place" take a look under their cars for the first time

So, to save you waiting, here's what it looks like once the panels are removed from under the receiver hitch fittings. These pictures were taken after the receiver was fitted, but before the rear panels were put back in place. Do you have the complete black plastic "box" on the underside?

Hey, imagine how smoothly this would go if we had a L405 category! Oh, did I mention that before?!
