I think everyone else has had the brake vacuum pump. It took Land Rover a couple of goes to rectify the issue so several members have had it replaced twice like you. Do a search on here and you will find reference to the latest vacuum part model number. Check the new one they install is the latest design. I've also had a couple of A/C thermostats and I know of at least one other forum member who has.

You are not alone. My mechanic has replace 3 on his '07 130.

LR are now fitting an updated design unit.
