Any tail tale sign for 2.2 engine failure?...

Keep in mind, regardless of what the dealership or Land Rover say, having a major component (an engine) fail 1 month out of warranty means they are still required to cover the repair as a warranty item. This is Australian consumer law and does not just apply to TVs and washing machines. This has been made very clear by the ACCC.
You obviously approach the dealer in a good positive manner, failing that then Jaguar Land Rover.... after that you point out the ACCC has made it clear that consumer law covers everything we purchase which includes a new motor vehicle.
Dont think for a minute they are doing you some sort of good will if they come to the party, its not good will its the law.
A failure of an engine just out of warranty is not considered fair and reasonable by any mentally competent person.

Just to add 106000km
Denso need to be partly responsible for these kinds of failures. Its not a solely LR issue😠😠
The Isuzu 110. Solid and as dependable as a rock, coming soon with auto box😊
The Range Rover L322 4.4.TTDV8 ....probably won't bother with the remap..😈
Transit Automotive in Victoria will sell you a new long block. AFAIK the 2.2 was $4500 for the block plus about $1000 in labour to do a roll in drive out transplant. The 2.4 was $6k + $1k. Transit Auto told me that injector failure was common problem. I cracked 2 pistons in a Puma 2.4. I didn't test the injectors because i went a different route. While it should be unnecessary I've come to the conclusion that testing the injectors around 100,000kms should be on the maintentance list.
Okay $6k for replacing an engine is not too bad,
Considering JLR wants $3.5K to replace the alarm module on my MY13...
If your failure was injector related budget about $100 each to test and $400 per injector.
for $3.5k you can feed a Rottweiler for a long time and he doubles as a companion. The alarm module can only offer 1 of those.
If you want a rapist story, my S-Tronic gearbox (audi) is throwing a fault. $300 for the part (speed sensor) but it is a gearbox out and full strip down to replace the part. No change from $4,000 at an Indi. Audi would be closer to $8k. The rub - Audi rebuilt the gearbox 30,000 kms ago and replaced all the sensors bar the speed sensor. Yes, i'm going to hit up Audi to cover the cost.
