Almost as bad as the German engines. Bmw, Merc and VAG .

Thanks for all these videos. I was just about to trade my 2018 VW Passat (great car, not one thing has went wrong) for a 2020 Jag XE 2.0 diesel. These videos have helped put me right, what an absolute dogshit brand.

What would the approximate cost to have chains and shafts replaced on land rover evoque

JLR charging to use their scan tool software. What a bloody cheek. The crap they are producing , they should release the software for nothing. Imagine owning anything from JLR. That company is going down hill fast.

I am buying a 2l 2016 discovery sport, 81k miles FSH and just had the timing chain changed. Should be ok for the next 3 years ?

Hi just a question, do you think these engines would be great if they had the EGR, DPF and ADBlue all removed ?

JR Vehicle Services, if you could improve some parts on these engines, what would you do? What would you make "more robust" i.e., replace with stronger steel, better aluminium alloy, replace plastic with metal or ceramic etc? Do you have some ideas how would you go about it?

That engine layout, surrounded by pipes and harnesses, makes it extremely difficult to do any maintenance with engine in place. Ridiculous! Same bullshit with Izuzu power units. Putting the timing chain at the back is stupidity incarnate. I think the oil pump drive is poor engineering as well. It seems that LR hasn't learnt anything from the crap engineered Ford engines it used to use.

Just happened me on way home from work . Brake pedal went hard 65k miles on 2021 transit 350

I think oil is really important peoples don't understand nothing about it my 2.0 18 plate currently 146000 miles on taxi lol

Hi how much u charge wet belt timing belt?

What ever happened to the good old utilitarian philosophy of Land Rovers. I suppose there's a price to pay for having an increasing amount of pouncy gadgets.

How do these vacuum type engine mounts work? I've got an older Honda Accord and the vacuum line runs from the front engine mount to the cylinder head. There is also a solenoid involved. When the engine is at low RPM does the vacuum pressure get higher reducing lower frequency vibrations?

I have a 2013 Audi S5 with the TFSI 3.0l, on every start up when cold it sounds like the chain is rattling, im assuming this is a good point to replace the chain then huh? 146,000 miles on it. No idea on the maintenance because i bought it at auction. Never did one of these. Rattle goes away on warm start up

So the question I have for you is, do the D240 defender engines suffer the same reliability issues as I had one as a loner and it went really well. I would even consider buying one.

Would this be recommended when haveing the timing chain done ?

High mileage ones should be better because if you get it properly hot the diesel in the fuel should burn off and maintain decent oil quality. Low mileage ones the don’t get hot are problematic. I sold my Disco Sport with this engine out of pure fear, and after I saw an Evoque literally explode on the M1.

My F pace is a2016 2.0 d ingenium when would you recommend a timing chain replacement, I'm on 53000 miles??

Late to the party, but only just discovered your channel. What a find, a garage staffed by people with honesty and integrity. How very refreshing. I reference the engine block with the imperfection, that leaks oil, that you have found a fix for. If that doesn't work have a specialist welder fill the gap/hole, whatever. It doesn't need to be perfect (although it very well may be) as you can file the excess down.

Should it differentiate 4 cylinder v 6 cylinder and petrol v diesel ?.

What a nightmare. Overall, are these any better for the environment than, '70s, '80s and '90s engines if they fail like this.

some great advice so for me its the 2.2 diesel or the petrol cheers

Good series. I bought a Petrol Discovery Sport three-years ago because we do modest annnual mileage & have been very pleased with it to date. They are much rarer than their diesel siblings. Previously we had had a Discovery 3 and then a 4. The latter was a lovely car albeit I was always worried about suffering a crankshaft failure. The car was low mileage and maintained by a non-franchise specialist. I was advised that oil changes more frequently than recommended by JLR was prudent but that if you have a car where the crankshaft is going to fail there is little or nothing more you can do to mitigate the potential problem.

I like the look of the jag xe and would consider buying one if it wasnt for the ingenium engine ! But my mates a mechanic and he said avoid them like the plague, and after this video ! I woudnt buy one.

I don't like seeing that amount of plastic buried deep in an engine on a critical component.

Hi am being informed that the 200bhp diesel post 2021 in the D Sport is much better than, can anyone confirm? Thanks

i will never buy anything with this chocolate engine in it the costs are horrendous thousands landrover and jag owners needing engines good cars being scraped as uneconomical to repair bring back the 2.2L it was a good engine in the 190hp at least you can fix it without going bankrupt

1:58 UK manufacturing plant is just north of Wolverhampton. There was going to be a sister plant in India to make engines for the global market but instead Tata & JLR decided that it would be cheaper to increase capacity at Wolverhampton, so no Ingenium engines were made in India.

No longer a premium brand manufacturer, in my opinion, all self-inflicted.

Rattle on start up and after servicing is often horrible 10,000km or 6 month servicing is a must Bring back the ratchet type tensioner with alloy guides would be 1/2 way there All in their quest to ‘save’ costs and extend service schedules.

When are you posting a new video? Missing the work you do..

These manufacturers r looking at maintenance money for their dealers. Being a retired mechanic i would never buy a vehicle with a wet belt. Dry belt is a better set up in my opinion.

Brilliant video. Thank you very much for sharing, which is the best reliable van to buy. I've gone of transit's i was thinking LDV or Citroën Relay what do you recommend?

Keep up the great work, fantastic & honest advice.

Mate we had one in with vaccum pump blocked . The inside of the vaccum pump is plastic i figured it started to break up blocking its self

Where is more detailed video of timing chain replacement? I was watching it couple days before and now I cant find it anymore.

My thanks for this, I think I will stay with my mk 5 smiley. Great job and video. many thanks.

Are the Ingenium 6 cylinder diesel engines like the D200, D250 and D300, reliable?

Enjoy your videos, I have a 2016 Diesel Evoque 77K and it’s been great. Problems I’ve had, two door actuators, rear camera water ingress and heat shield on dpf needed a tack weld to stop it rattling. I have a commute of 30 miles but fortunately most of it is dual carriageway. It tows a caravan so gets good long runs too. I’m in Cheshire and it’s looked after by a JLR indie. It’s due routine service soon and will discuss timing chain replacement. I had auto trans fluid changed at 50k and had Haldex serviced too.

Can you replace the front crankshaft seal without removing the 8mm bolts holding the housing? Might damage mine as trying to remove a seized crankshaft pulley dampener😢

My crankshaft pulley dampener is seized on. Wd40 and heat it came off but leaving behind the aluminium part on the pulley to the crankshaft… any ideas how to get this off without damaging the crankshaft?

Great Video mate, As a new Ingenium engine owner its eye opening. Thankfully I'm able to do the Oil Changes myself between service intervals fairly easily so that and longer runs at weekends should help! Quick question, My thermostat seems to have packed up - struggles to get above quarter way on Dual carriageways/M5. Recently I'm also getting the code P0401-00, Are these related due to not being able to complete the EGR clean cycle do you think? No Soot in exhaust... :)

I had a mk3 mondeo st tdci with the 2.2 psa engine, a great engine powerful reliable and efficient 220 000 on the clock was still running great, only downside noisy sound like a tractor especially as it got older due to wear on timing chain tensioner

Hi! Do you guys have a way to send you money as a a thanks? This is all very useful information to me! To be frank, here in California, I just don’t trust the dealer. And there’s very few Jaguar shops around. Plus I like working on things. So I’ve decided to take care of my whip, with all the pain that brings! So, I have a question. If I have to change the engine brackets on an AWD XE, and I’m going to do the timing chain as well, do you recommend taking off the engine as well? I broke the brackets while changing out the front driver side wheel hub (Jaguar manual says to leave the hub bolted on while removing the halfshaft, and I think I was pushing the differential up against the suspension and that broke the brackets.) Thanks for any help!

is the broken egr pipe the common issue in this engine? i got mine 2 month ago and already have a broken pipe of egr ( G4D3-9F468-AB )? and do you know what is the difference between 2016 204dtd and 2020 dtd. are the new engines part are compatible with old one? thank you. appreciate your videos and advice.

Hope those special tools come wiv every new JLR?

Worst engine ever in a landrover even the 1.8 k series was better than it

I'll have a timing chain thanks, and enjoy the extra noise happily content its unlikely to fall apart.

Is changing engine oil often heps the belt ?

I have ford custom late 2022 do I have wet belt om it ?😊
