Have you checked the engine numbers against the log book ? Is it from another vehicle, or perhaps a quick repair bodged to get rid. |

I’m on my 3rd V8 Diesel - everyone faultless so far - the only issue I’ve had is an EGT sensor and a 3 month wait for an new sensor - but to be fair they are not made by LR and I was told it was a ... |

The chances are it is not full at all - it’s likely to be an air lock. The simplest way to fill her is on a gentle slope - nose facing upwards and trickle the add blue in slowly. |

For goodness sake be very, very, careful of some of the rebuilders - a friend had a V6 diesel go due to crankshaft failure - he went to a well advertised “rebuilders” in Lancashire they gave him a ... |

Engine failure due to a runaway engine running on its own oil is caused by a faulty turbo / turbo issue.

I’ve had both and would rather have the centre console cubby under the cup holders - it’s got more useable space, it is lit and has a charging port / power supply in there.
