I found in my experience and through various interviews the 4.4 and 4.2 SC are generally more reliable than the 5.0 and 5.0 SC. The conclusion of my Range Rover Book: L322 Buyers Guide is that for 2010+ you should go with the 4.4 TDV8 for reliability.

My 2010 vse has blind spot monitoring and virtually all the other goodies including electric locking rear diff, but no adaptive headlamps.

I have my AB Black 4.4 MJ11 now a year and this is definitely one of the best cars I've ever driven.

The one bad thing I'd say about my 09 MY10 rdv8 is the breaks are poor, I think they're Land Rover Ines rather than the bremo ones, some have them and some don't 2018 Suzuki Jimny 2003 written off

My 2011 has RSE and remote heat. It has park heat too. I think park heat is when you can program the FBH to come on at a certain time, when the car is parked....

The revised drain has 2 pipes instead of the original 1 but it's difficult to see the bottom of the turbo. |

Just to clarify things vis a vis Park heating and fuel burning heater , park heating is the function where residual heat from an already warm engine is used to operate the hvac system via the auxiliary coolant pump and is operated by simply pushing the Max button when stopped and the engine is off . Nothing to do with the thermotop fuel burning heater . 2008 MY Supercharged

Are the "secret" diagnostic screens still available in the '10MY vehicles and onwards and, if so, has the procedure for accessing then changed? 2012 Vogue 4.4 TDV8 automatic (LHD), Santorini Black

Hi guys, I am also trying to establish spec for MY2011 - Mainly what was standard and what was an option for Vogue vs Vogue SE, Autobiog. I've typed up a grid mainly showing the gadgets I really want.
