I have my 2 oil cooler gaskets arrived from Dan at Duckworths so looking to do the job this Saturday if I get the time. Got some Hylomar Blue as mentioned previously, and brake cleaner for the cleaning of the manifold sensors. Anything else that’s worth doing at the same time? Chris

Just the interior of the inlet manifold......a small job, but very dirty.

Not sure if it makes much difference once done, but it did satisfy my OCD for a while

Mine was done under LR warranty. What do I put here then?

interesting....how did you present the problem/details to the dealer ? ... - .- -.

In the old days Stan this was a corrosion preventer that all Range Rovers had so no corrosion underneath

Bummer. How many miles are you at Stan?
Do you think oil cooler or the o-ring thing?

Has any oil got into the coolant ? or the V at the top of the engine?, or is more likely just the “0” rings ?

Stan,
Has it just been in for a service?
Is it possible that they spilled some oil out whilst changing the oil filter?

morning chaps...

no oil in the coolant Mike so i suppose that points to the 'O' rings ..

@GAC23, i was hoping for something more technical so i could direct the LR numpties to the precise problem so they dont come back with 'nothing found'...

@Greg, miles are 81000 and no oil in coolant..

@Sandy,

i dont think my back in its present state will let me do the job myself so i'm tempted to ask Craig to do it... ok it will cost but at least i know it will be done properly..

i'll let you all know what happens..  ... - .- -.

Sorry, Stan ... that's all I told them - was all I knew.

Luckily they found the problem and fixed it. What do I put here then?

thanks G, i have LR assist coming tomorrow morning so hopefully the tech will know the proper 'wording' of the problem... ... - .- -.

You certainly want to hope they're more technical then me, Stan  What do I put here then?

well LR assist have come and gone and the chap confirms that there is an oil leak at the near side rear of the engine block..he didnt get any mirrors or endoscope out so i'm sure what is leaking but he thinks its most likely the oil seals..
time to get it booked in with a dealer.. ... - .- -.
