It can be removed pretty easily, it just clips into place and can be levered out using a plastic trim tool with the lower tailgate partially open, give it a good clean then paint it using plastic / bu ... |

This approach is reminiscent of the Defender front axle issue (failing weld) and eventual recall N706 which also involves fitment of two clamps to hold the axle together and stop the wheel detaching i ... |

As long as they used the latest tensioners & guides with the hardened ‘button’ (check the part numbers used if possible) it should be good for many miles. Bear in mind the engine is notoriousl ... |
