This dealer is LR approved but its much more like a specialist with more off the off-roader stuff there and is privatley run. The others i have visited in Italy are like the uk ones and seem just as useless.

Hi Kermit , yes its on page 3 the first 10 seconds. thx.

:(Update its back and I,m extremely depressed. Garage has done work on the car and sent it back to me saying it was all running well. This morning I go to the top of my road(it is uphill) as soon as I put it into second gear with some load on the engine there it is a metallic ticking noise just...

Just to let you know my ticking problem which sounded like tappets has been solved it was the pully on the fan and AC belts. would never have believed it could be this,AC compressor was also changed.

I would leave it another six months and a few more miles. 500 miles on clean changed this year oil is nothing.

Dragonwalker could you link me to the threads about this ticking engine noise please as i cant seem to find them. tia.

Marshall8hp , Many thanks for your reply. I have mine back with the company who did the work on the car so i will post on here the outcome! I also dropped a message to RPI Engineering UK who answered saying it could be a piston problem but obviously its not easy for them to detect with just a...
