Turbo hose gets blown off
Yesterday i was driving 100 km/h and for the second time in 8 weeks time the turbo hose got blown off the engine.
I put it back on and the engine was in limp mode.
After restarting the engine everything is fine again.
It is a 2.2 from january with 2500 km.
I thought there was something of a recall from that hose....
Can someone tell me something over the possible reason the tube is getting off the turbo?

Thanks!

I had the same problem with my 2.2. Took it back to the dealer, they said that LR knew about the problem, a new hose was fitted that the dealer said was slightly different design, I can not see any difference myself, but no problems since.

So you've decided then Laughing Tell someone you love them today because life is short.
But shout it at them in German because life is also terrifying and confusing...

the engine light turned itself off.
I didn't know it can reset itself.

I have a 2013 MY Defender with just 1100 miles covered; this model is supposed to have the latest and greatest fix to this problem but yesterday off came the turbo hose! I limped along managing just 40mph at times on a rush hour A14 - not too funny! It now needs a new hose as following the failure the hose was abraded by the alternator pulley.
Land Rover Assistance guy (excellent service by the way) suggested that the hose was not installed correctly but I don't have too much confidence, I think I will get some Mikalo hose clamps to replace the factory fit jubilee style clips on the turbo hoses.

This is really not rocket science and should have been fixed by now, seems like Land Rover are using their customers to test their vehicles, a good old Lotus technique!

I had none of these problems with my 2009 2.4 TDCi over 50K miles

Would this be a possible definite solution?

ericv, Looks like a good piece of kit, I think the 2.2 and 2.4 are slightly different hence the bulk of the problems being with the 2.2, so correct fitment would have to be confirmed.

For some faults the warning light is supposed to extinguish after 4 ignition cycles once the fault is no longer present.

The dealer replaced the tube between the turbo and intercooler for a tube with a totally different design and the problem is solved.
If you still have the hard plastic tube between the turbo and intercooler get it replaced by the modify part.
