FYI, these are now available non-genuine, we use Mann filters across our fleet, W8027 is the Mann part number and they are half the price of LR or Ford.

My nine month old vehicle has now been back to the supplying dealer 3 times for this misfire problem, but they say they say can't fix it.

The misfire occurs during a very light throttle situation, ...

Blended, but perfectly OK for how I drink whiskey (with milk!).

The oil will be genuine parts squeezed in from a plastic bottle, they don't have anything else, I've seen them doing it - unbelieveab ...

OK just a quick update.

Not sure if purely as a response to my letter or the posting on here, or both, my vehicle was collected at 7am this morning and has just been returned at 7pm with a new gear ...

Yes I've been past, but don't think they are doing much LR now.

Can't really be bothered in truth, this dealer effectively has a monopoly due to being on a peninsula, if you live here you don't have any choice, and what could LR customer relations do anyway, I'm a ...

Thanks Simon.

Won't need any 'luck' to get the car fixed, I'm simply going to pay for it to be done elsewhere, using a complete new gearbox assembly.

Recovering my costs might turn into small cl ...

Just thought other members would like to see what sort of service they can expect from Carrs Land Rover of Truro. This matter relates to a main gearbox syncro fault and a transfer box oil leak that we ...

Unfortunately when you live on a peninsula like me, we only have one dealer and no choice in the matter. That dealer (Carrs of Truro in my case) can give absolutely terrible service, forever, and surv ...

Got my vehicle back Friday after 3 days at the dealer - surprise surprise they say they can't find the missfire fault - I even got the classic line 'they all do that sir'!

They also failed to fix ...

Yep, got exactly the same issue with my 8 month old, 13MY, 9000 miles on the clock, usually in 2nd or 3rd, you back off the throttle in traffic then go to pull away and it mis-fires for a second, then ...
