TDV6 Life Expectancy ????

[Rosco55]

How long would you expect a 2010 D4 TDV6 engine to last. Mine has imploded at 215,000 km and I don't feel this is reasonable.
All servicing done as per requirements by authorised Land Rover dealers.
At $40,000 for a new engine I am not happy.
Am I unreasonable?

A fer members with 2.7's that are over 500k so 215k is definitely not reasonable, i would be pushing for a new engine from LRA as there are known issues with cranks snapping etc.

Not acceptable at all but even more crazy is the 40k price tag for an engine swap.

as has been said if dealer serviced at correct intervals then contact L/R .

Cheers Ean

Rule of thumb was if you make it to 200k kms it’s would go on and on. Maybe it’s 215k kms. I’m at 198k kms

I’ve seen Ford Territory new Lion V6 engines for around $10k as a new option. Plus fitting. Same engine only with a few bits needing changeover from your engine.

A second hand Territory V6 low km engine is the next step and there seems to be an independent repairer in each state skilled at the swap over.

I’ll be really interested to hear what LR say but that $40k is the dealer rate for sure.

It’s funny (not for you I might add) really as LR do believe that that’s the life of the car. This come from their view that the gearbox is “filled for life” or 10 years or 230,000km.

No good for a 3ltr replacement.

99% sure 2010 tdv6 was 2.7

I think it was the change over year, also I thought it read as a 2014.

MY10 had both 2.7 and 3.0, with the 3.0 badged TDV6.

What happened with the engine?

So not correct. Mine is a 2010 TDV6 and it’s a 3.0L full power. It was only in later years when they ditched the 2.7 that they went to TD and SD spec where the previous TD 3.0L spec became the SD spec.
