Hi all, this is my first post so bear with me. I have just bought a 2007 3.6 V8 Range Rover vogue. It’s has just developed a problem. It went into limp mode the other day so I used a OBD reader and it showed no error codes. On closer inspection with the bonnet open I found a small split in the right hand (i think it’s called - intake manifold air duct hose which is very short and has a 90 degree bend). I taped it up for now with strong duct tape which seemed to work. There was a whistle noise as well which I assume is to do with the hose split? When I removed the hose it had quite a bit of oily gunk and carbon build up which I cleaned out, is this normal? Is there any advice about what parts I should take off and clean out?
Sorry there are quite a few questions in this post. I have just I a a few weeks left on a basic warranty from the dealer where I bought the car but as he is miles away ( I know it’s my fault for purchasing a car so far away but it was a good deal and a great example) if there is any major issues going on I would like to know. Appreciate and help or advice, many thanks.
