    2015 TDV6 Snapped Crank

    Seems it's happened to me

    Sitting at lights and suddenly heard bang-bang-bang-bang (in time with the engine turning over) - turned off the motor (won't restart, just dead)

    All signs point to the crank; March 2015 registered TDV6, 86k km and LR or specialist serviced (last serviced 2k km ago & just had gearbox serviced)

    I'm aware of the service bulletins 'recognising' the fault, but has anyone ever had any luck in addressing the issue with LR Australia? I purchased from a main dealer (Pacific Land Rover) in February this year.

    Is there a reputable source of remanufactured / refurbished / new engines? At reasonable cost?

    Mine is a 2016 TDV6 and as such I was hoping that I’d be immune to this problem

    Guess not ...

    2015 TDV6 Snapped Crank

    TDV6 2.7D yes - ex Ford Territory swap
    TDV6 3.0D not so much

    Definitely push the dealer but you may need to find a very good independent to assist.

    Just hate seeing these posts and very sorry to hear.

    There is no immunity to it. Just pray you’re not one of the percentage.

    86 000km isn’t far either

    LR should come to the party if the vehicle has full service records,and hasn’t had any engine mods,tunes,etc.
    One owner will help as well.

    Have a read of this....

    There are avenues worth pursuing under consumer guarantees, but it will be an uphill battle with Land Rover and the dealer. But, for the money it will cost to replace the motor, definitely worth exploring.

    Thanks all & for the link TuffRR.

    I'm second owner, but given cost will be pushing LR Hard.

    Haven't yet been able to find a 3.0 'short' or 'crate' engine anywhere - do such things exist?
