    Discovery 5 2.0 engine nightmare

    Thank you for your reply! It was just a customer demo vehicle not one for Land Rover experience, it had done 5000 miles when we got it I am In agreement that the exhaust was the fault of the dealer, and also thinking the current fuel line issue is the dealers responsibility too JLR Assist...
