    Its what happens when you outsource all your major components to specialists companies (ZF for auto & TC, Peugeot/Ford for engine and GKN for diffs/axles etc).

    Best thing that has ever happened, leaves LR to concentrate on the engineering and design which is what they do best.

    You won't need to put in a claim, I believe it's the subject of a recall so they will install your leaks automatically. Look for the sticker inside the door when you pick it up.

    Perhaps it's in the next ECU upgrade?

    My 1 year old defender has a leaking transfer case, and mainseal (probably). Both of which LR are denying... LOL. I'll remind them about it more forcefully before the warranty runs out.

    I can't complain they have been generous with warranty so far

    When you bought it you forgot to tick the following options

    + Automatic reapplying rust prevention system
    + extended filter life option with Automatic oil contaminant removing system
    + Return to last location marker system
    + Driveway dust supression system

    Actually, I've got a 'driveway dust supression system'. It's called concrete!
