United Kingdom 2006 Range Rover Vogue SE Supercharged Java Black
New buyer, some questions.

Hi guys,

I am looking to buy a facelift 2005-06 TD6 Vogue.

    Is there anything specific I need to look at when checking over the car?

    Is 90-100k high miles, I seem to find a lot at this mileage.

    Is there common problems at this mileage

    Do the turbos go wrong?

    What are the service intervals?


Anything else I need to know?
Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks in advance!

I'm sure you'll get much more comprehensive advice, but here's my two penn'orth.

90-100k = just run in. Mileage should be irrelevant, buy on condition.

Things that go wrong at this mileage = gearbox if oil not changed.

I've not heard of a TD6 Turbo failing.

Service intervals - don't know, sorry!

Remember this engine is basically the same as the 530d, which many people now have at 250-500k miles without any real issues, I guess it works a little harder in the Range Rover, but equally it doesn't get thrashed like in the typical 530d.

Anyway, plenty of owners here who will be able to tell you much better than me! I'm sure some of them are selling too! Range Rover-less at the moment - Pining!

Gearbox oil change between 75-100k would be good Thumbs Up
