Hi to you all,
Has anybody had a problem with the turbo on the fl2 td
because mine loses the will to live
1,500 to 2,000 rpm it very noisy.

I called LRA and there came out in about 30 mins the chap had a good look at all the turbo pipes etc all on and not split. He suspects turbo to. He sorted the car to recovered the local dealer in Newcastle (I have found them friendly to date) and LRA sorted me a hire car (because the dealer were closed) Great.

Boy, the hire car is a bad show of modern engineering. It just goes to show how well Land Rover and other diesel Cars have come on in the last few years.
It’s 1.8 petrol which date back about 15 years and massively under powered for the size of car and no greener than the fl2 because you’re up and down the gears all the time, all the old faults are still on the new car as the old model. If I was a rep and was given this to drive all day I would need paying a lot more or look for a new job.

Hopefully my Fl2 will be back soon I will keep you up dated


Keep up the good work LRA

Torbo sounds like the way Father Ted would say it.

Not sure on the turbo problem but LRA should be providing you with another Landrover if your going to be without it for a while speak to Enterprize again and they would swap it for you

they get paid the same by LR wether you get a FFRR Vogue or a citreon Saxo  Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis
