Thread: Pogoing D3

Sounds like stuffed shocks. D3s definately don't pogo!

He then took mine for a drive and realised that this pogoing was not a standard feature although 20,000 back he told the Stealer about it and the stealer said it was Normal. !!!
Its as if there are NO rear shockers in it ! Simply standing on his rear bumper and jumping up and down gets this Pogoing action happening,although there seems to be some resistance to compression ,yet absolutely no control over Rebound. Yeah,jump on it and jump off ,it then does 3 or 4 oscillations before it stops !
Anyone had anything similar ?

Well the dealer is an idiot, it will be stuffed shocks for sure, that test you did by standing on the rear bumper, confirms it.

Baz.

Am I right in guessing that 20,000km ago - it was still in warranty? Now it is out of warranty, the dealer will have a different opinion!

I have three Rovers in my driveway ATM and none of them drive like that,I ran the misses to the airport this morning and the L322 just cruised along.I'm going to miss that vehicle like none before it. Pat

Yeah, Pat,the road to the airport is our favourite test track , got some nice rolling whoops where all the road trains Assemble and pullout . Being a 2009 model hes got about 4 months left of Warranty . Another trip to Perth to make them fix it this time .

I've driven it a few more places than the airport,dampers aren't covered by warranty. Pat

Should see Ricks Fender with the Ashcroft Underdrive !!!

Shocks are consumables not warranty
