List of faults
Hi

Just wondered, is there a list of faults for the Puma engine??

Having had just about every poss fault with my Td5 D2, I wonder if puma engines are better? Mines done 56K & never missed a beat

Thanks Chris

Think you've more or less answered your own question there Chris! Good to hear the Puma is going well, some will have you believe they're the worst Land Rover ever built, but there's no doubt been good and bad examples of them all since day one. I'm still a newbie on here and have only had my Puma for 6 months/6,000 miles but I've not forgotten what the salesman said when I bought it - "Look after your Defender and it'll look after you!". I laughed at the time but maybe there's some truth in it?

Cheers!
Thumbs Up

No, the 2.5TD was at the top, or pretty near the top of that list Laughing Steve.
Owned numerous Land Rover vehicles of all shapes and sizes over the decades.

[Insert something impressive here such as extensive list of previous Land Rovers or examples of your prestigeous and expensive items, trinkets, houses, bikes, vehicles etc]
