Land Rover Discovery TDV6 engine failures making headlines Land Rover Discovery 3 owners for some time now have had some worrying questions about the popular TDV6 engine used in the Land Rover Discovery 3. Sudden catastrophic engine failures linked with broken crankshafts have happened often on vehicles in South Africa, UK and Australia. Nodge68 said: The TDV6 is known to have a 2 to 5 second delay to oil pressure build up on the first start of the day. If its left unstarted for longer periods, this delay can be lengthened further. This is what eventually hammers the bearings, loosening the crush which causes the spin. I found that the cable was screwed fully in to the actuator shaft. Looking at the manual it states that the cable must be screwed into the actuator shaft 5 full turns only, that was causing the jam. Decided to remove the motor/gearbox and found one of the nylon gears was stripped, luckily I had purchased a spare set. Go into manual mode, drop down a gear, all good. Might make the TC last a bit longer by doing this.

Hi I'm new on here, and I've got a 2007range rover sport 2.7 tdv6, I've got an issue with the vehicle it just cut out one day when I was driving, the engine still turns over so isn't seized but won't start! Whilst getting someone to crank the car I looked inside the oil filler cap and i can see the camshaft turning but when it That translates to little over 716 gallons of gas consumed -- at an average of $3 per gallon for the 91-plus-octane premium gas Land Rover required, we shelled out about $2,148 on gas. One of the common problems we fix with the TDV6 engine from Discovery 3, Discovery 4, and Range Rover Sport as the vehicles get older is EGR valves – Exhaust Gas Recirculation Valves. The EGR system is a method that has been developed by engineers to reduce emissions from engines. They open only at idle, and at full throttle, to allow some of Thanked: 549. An OBD tool can be used in a preventative way provided: You know and understand what a specific sensor is measuring. What the normal measurements are suppose to be. What the tolerances / limits are. What these variances means and how it relates back to the mechanicals. What corrective action needs to be taken.
