    Great news, though a pity that it has taken so long.

    I can't help but think Land Rover must have know for some time what the real problem is - these engines have been in used in large numbers (not only in Land Rovers for enough time now

    I do hope that soon you will enjoy a trouble free Land Rover.

    Lou - am pleased to hear that EVENTUALLY they are doing something about it. Hopefully your hair can start to grow back now.

    I'd like to find out what the diagnosis is when they strip the engine (which I presume they will) to find out what was going wrong.

    Great news. Best of luck with the new donk. It's been a long saga for you both. The past is back there and the future is this way etc, but geeze, getting the new car of your dreams shouldn't be like this

    Yeah - good luck with the new engine - it's got to be a good outcome, albeit too long coming. Does the warranty begin over again now?

    I have a feeling not! I'm pretty sure when new parts are fitted under warranty they take on what warranty period is left I could be wrong on that though.
    Our Land Rover does not leak oil! it just marks its territory.......
