Had a hissing 90 in the other week and traced the noise to the drivers side join onto the intercooler behind the grille where it had already started spraying oil mist out through it. The tech had installed it too far on and it was over the plastic 'stop right here' lug on the intercooler inlet pipe.

First time poster. Recently bought 2012 110 wagon for work. Had rangies for years and never a problem. Defender has had immobilizer issue, output shaft let go at 42000k, now blown turbo/intercooler hose at 45000k. Limp home mode! Are things like this going to keep happening, losing faith in my favourite marque of vehicle. In fairness land rover did cover the gearbox even though technically it was just out of warranty.
Thanks.

There was a recall on the hose. The previous owner should've known about it.Check with the local LR dealer.They should know if it was done from the VIN.
Hey is this issue still floating around and pestering other owners?
I recently had to replace three intercooler hoses and a bracket in my 2014MY 110. Apparently not the same cause as the recall...but mysteriously the same parts. I've been assured that its not related to the Q360v2 recall, oh and damn...just out of warranty too.
Some of the members here have bought access to Topix.... (LR online service/support site)... PM your VIN to a member with access that you trust and they can see if the recall is outstanding or done.Quote:
