    That’s amazing they’re not really worried about poor old cobber with the broken crank that may buy another car one day but only really worried about the consequences of what may happen, when it occurs on some busy highway to third parties
    Too many lawyers in the company I think
    Ah, that's exactly what a "safety recall" is, for repairing faults that are a potential safety issue. Anything else is just a service campaign which may or may not get done depending on who you get to service your vehicle

    Sometimes, just sometimes I could kick myself for buying Landies. But then I think of the probs. my boy had getting Tojo to fix the huge thirst for oil on his LC200 series and fix the transmission which wouldn't do anything until pressure had built up after sitting in his drive overnight.
    Their excuse was "it was hi-tech and you must be prepared for these things......" But they did fix it after 3 years and it took them 3 months. Try telling that to the Exploroz lot.
    Unbelievable but I'm reaching the stage where I think just about everything on modern cars is unbelievable...... including not having a ****ing dip stick. In fact I'm seriously thinking of not going off road any more.... I may stick to the flesh pots of Asia for my fun.

    There's a petition on the Facebook group "Discovery 3 & 4 owners" for this issue.

    Did LR change anything in "post 2013" 3lt engines to eliminate the risk of this problem with later vehicles?
