    L405 Dead Engine

    Apparently it just went clunk clunk and stopped ..
    Dealers say main bearing buggered, metal throughout the engine oil system and that'll be $45,000 to repair ......
    Any great ideas appreciated

    There are second hand engines available though apart from LR the trick is to find a company willing to do the work..
    I did a full reco ( SDV8) with new turbo's and the cost was around that... mine was caused by a blocked rad...
    yours, most probably, by bad engineering...

    Apart from a new crate engine from Land Rover the only other real option is a rebuild from a company called Automotive Skills based in Sydney and Melbourne.
