United Kingdom 2014 Range Rover Autobiography SDV8 Causeway Grey

Shocked
That's both fascinating and worryingly convincing at the same time.
I didn't know I'd become that interested in crankshafts Laughing

I found it interesting as well … The designers clearly had concerns about the design from the outset. Such a shame it would appear to have tarnished the reputation of the engine, as by all other accounts it’s a good unit and suited to the vehicles it goes in. V8 or else ...

The main issue is down the fundamental design of the bottom end to support a transverse mounting arrangement for installation into the Citroën C5, Citroën C6 and Peugeot 407. This leaves the crank web or cheek to contain less mass than what would typically be present in a robust design.


Coincidentally, the following video has been posted by LR Time today. If you skip to around 16 minutes, this is discussed. Worth a watch if anyone is interested.



Great Video Thanks 2018 SE SDV8 4.4 Byron Blue
