Death Rattle

[Allan]

Coming home from hell today ( work ) new noise!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thought it may be turbo but son and receiver of all I own when I go, and Subaru wiz Kid, said heat shroud. Sure as, the bolt had rattled out of the mount . Worth a check, sounded like a death rattle.

Let me guess....it was the bolt closest to the firewall and the rattle was at about 2500 rpm

You'd think by now that LR would have broken out its precious supply of loktite to fix this not uncommon fault.

Thanks for the heads up.

[Allan]

Thats the one. I would have thought they would check all fittings/bolts at service considering what they charge. But.....

Wouldn't be this bolt by any chance......



As far a Land Rover chasing up common faults and trying to rectify them, whats the old saying, "you can lead a horse to water....."

Cheers,

Again thats the one. I have decided to spend a day tightening all bolts, nuts, screws etc myself!

Allan,

Don't forget top check the sway bar links, I have had 2 out of 2 130's with VERY loose ones, 1 had even dropped out

So much for PD....

Did you know that the bolt falling out of our sway bar was what was causing our engine rattle and loss of power and limp home mode
