does anyone know the relearn process full name, maybe i can hunt around and find someone with a good scanner to do it for cheap thx!! im having this issue and its driving me nuts EDIT nevermind i found it

i dont have a good scanner like that. do you think clearing the codes and letting the battery sit unplugged for a while will do the trick

Love my 2009 3.6tdv8 Westminster. Apart from one of the turbos going last year, it has been fantastic to own and drive.

Never get service at The Transmission Shop Plano TX. 1 code b4 I took my car their now u have 5 codes & still can't drive my 2016 Mustang GT No. 5. Clutch install doesn't work. Dishonest & basically sabotage my car.

Great video. From your experience, would you consider the purchase of a one owner 2007 3.6 tdv8 very high mileage (around 280.000 miles, I assume mostly highway miles) if it has a decent service history?

3rd option be happy and get the 5.0 supercharger jag engine L320 or L319. It’s thirty but is a tank, a fast tank on the roads. Major faults NONE. Just regular oil changes twice a year or every 10.000 km +- 6000 miles , keeping an eye on the coolant hooses that pass between supercharger and the engine block and changing tensioner belts every 80.000 km or +- 50.000 miles. Watching the fluid levels once a week for precaution and everything will be more than fine. No turbines to change nothing just a fine supercharger injecting life on the engine and roaring miles away on the road faster on 0-60 than any golf or mini cooper sport.

Have you still got the 3.6 for sale?

Fantastic review!! Thank you so much! I am in exactly in that position where I.m considering what to replace my Disco 2 with, which I love and have spent a fortune on improving, but it's getting old, (as in mileage is over 200K ) though I am still a stick monkey and love a manual plus not sure whether I'd rather spend money on it, like another engine or upgrade to a BMW 3 litre and have it all sorted rather than start again with another vehicle with unknown gremlins. Only real consideration is extra space, but IF I do decide to sell "Duke" and get a 322, now it will almost certainly be a 3,6 as late as I can affortd. I love your easy to listen to, thoughtful cadence, not trying to be a slick, scripted presenter but just matterr of fact and honesty with no axe to grind either way. I have enjoyed watching this immensley and it has been a big help. Cheers Guy

I was always told when driving diesels with dpfs auto or manual, apart from motorway speeds keep the low speed town driving to 3rd and 3000rpm etc.

Приветствую Братья😊 Я с России. У нас любят эти машины, научились их делать. Я сам приобрёл себе такой же, но ДВС 5.0 супержаржерд. Просто самолёт. Машина дл динамично едет. Но бывают у неё по мелочи проблемы, но не кретины, я люблю свою машину, как жену😉🙏Всем добра🙏

hahea fat and furious got me poping a snigger 😂

Great video thanks. My 3.6 does 25mpg average, mainly small trips and best is 42mpg 100% motorway at 65mpg. Do fancy the 4.4 however its the maintenance side that puts me off slightly, its the 8 speed box I fancy

The best and the worst Range Rover it’s the one you have. I love mine .

"Once a week I take it over 3k rpm..." What? Once a DAY if you want to keep the turbo waste clear! Might explain why you've got 20 mins of smoke behind you - my 4.4 tdv8 (2010 bought for £8k in Jan this year) only puts out 'a large puff' when I floor it. Think you need to increase your 'floorin' it' frequency.....

Hi. Im about to build one with a bmw 520 estate. Do you have any pictures etc of how you welded the caravan chassis to it.

Just read a comment. Dpf is an issue on 4.4 . 3.6 didn't have dpf . Short journeys with 4.4 dpf light will come on yellow in colour. You can clear it yourself with along run . Light will go off . If goes red . Limp mode . Then a fortune to have it cleaned. DPF DELETE AND STAGE 1 REMAP IS THE ANSWER . BUT IT DIDNT COME FROM ME

Want one.

I remember this😂

Nicely done! Thanks for taking the effort to video this procedure.

real good interview of the car ! solid personality !

I just got the same issue, it was P0300 and P0308, and then I got P0316 and P0300. I swapped the coils and waiting for the issue to return hoping it is the coils or spark plugs. But I also noticed that this issue right after a weather change in the Bay Area, it was very hot for 2-4 weeks and now it is really cold. I have a 14 5.0 with a CAI, off-road Xpipe (catless) and corsa extreme tuned.

It’s like asking what’s the best STD to have

No matter how much you try and convince yourself that the 3.6 is the better car, once you’ve bought one, you’ll always wish that you had bought the 4.4. The 4.4 is dropping in value like a stone right now. 18 months ago, you would have paid the same for a 3.6. The turbos on the 4.4 are less prone to failure (not exempt from, but less prone) Turbo failure on the 3.6 will wipe out any saving you made on the purchase price of a 3.6. Unless the very reason that you’re considering an L322 at all is because the 3.6 has dropped into your budget zone, then buy the 4.4. Also though, if that is the case, you might want to think carefully about Range Rover ownership at all. To be fair, if I had a 3.6 for sale, I’d probably say it was the better car as well!

My 2010 Range Rover Sport has just thrown its crankshaft out of the window. I am now looking for a 2012 Range Rover Autobiography 4.4 v8. I hope it goes well, as they look great. Thanks for your videos.

I’ve a 3.6 with flappy paddles

Just had my gorgeous bronze 3.6 vogue STOLEN by scumbags 😢

Heck yeah! I'm getting one! Southern Africa is perfecr for one! In the wet season the inly thing rhat moves here is ny Mahindra S6 4x4! That rhing will get my nissus ro the shoos 20km's throughthe bush on clay slippery mud roads with bo ussues provided it's fitted with all ir rugged rwrrain ryres. I have Twrrafirmas on my Nahindra Curry Cruiser which I take literally anywhere from boggy werland to high moyntain passes above 10999'. The Rangie will do all of that without breaking a sweat.

I'm about to buy one and watched to get your opinion. Thanks for sharing

Based on my 3y usage if 4.4d - the mpg figures are always showing 2-3 liters less vs reality. I am not getting less then 9l/100km, but the dash can show 6-7 l/1000. At the same time the km till empty tank show correct figures. I would say my average is 11-14 l/100km which is still fantastic

I have the 8 speed ZF in my XF, from a stationary it takes 2nd gear by default. If you go into the settings and allow the flappy paddles in normal drive, flick the paddle and slow to a stop, it will downshift when needed but will not go into 1st and will pull away in 2nd. Is the RR the same? This could be why when you lift off the brake it doesn't take off. Excellent video, btw.

Just get an l405 worlds apart l322 is antique now

@13m50s you have been sold a bull story....your turbos are on their way out end of......common as hell on these anywhere between 60k miles-120k miles depending on varying factors

the TD6 was just way easier to live with.

2.5 years ive owned the 08 3.6 tdv8. IF! i have another it would be the 4.4 tdv8. These cars are loveable bastards. I cant tell you how much alcohol was consumed just to do the rear hub bushes 😭 but every time you spend 10 mins with the bitch running well. It wins ya over everytime...

A 3.6 with an 8 speed is what we need or a 4.4 with 3.6 turbo set up

Just found you channel. Really well made and informative. Please do some more.

I would think the torque converters are different for the different gear boxes the six speed more torque 🤔 would need to look at specs

Agree with you here 100%.. and all the folks below! Love my 4.4 , Re map, Torques unreal ..9 1/2 years of ownership, usual probs BUT not a lot!! Don,t like the road tax! Jezer Clarckson sez best Rangey ever built.. Not worth a lot of money now so will keep it .. Happy days

L322 the best SUV in the world, the end let’s move on.

Hi mate, look up technical bulletin LTB00513 to get rid of the smoke at acceleration. I have a 2012 4.4 TDV8 that I bought at Xmas last year. My mechanic and I were scratching our respective heads about it for about 3 months until we decided to give the drain pipe upgrade a go. Wasn’t a cheap fix but I haven’t seen any smoke since it got done. Well worth getting it done.

I have a remapped 4.4 westy, drug dealer spec in fiji white, tinted windows and l405 diamond cut alloys. Black interior with piano black inlays. Hk hd sound system is beautiful. Oh and factory bodykit. The mapped 4.4 is a different car and shocks me everytime I plant it. Big bills but massive smiles. Just driven from Norfolk to the Scottish Highlands, next week back down to Newquay and then back to Norfolk. Cannot think of a more comfortable car to do these miles in. Bank account hates it though.

With reference to your oil build up and smoke issue.. I’ve had my 2011 4.4 for 12 years love it fantastic vehicle. I noticed this very early in my ownership. Took the vehicle back under warranty and the issue is actually the scavenge pipe which takes the oil away from the turbo is of two small a diameter so the oil gets past the seals and into the turbo then engine and burns off.. the fix is to drill and thread a larger diameter in the engine block and get a larger pipe to the turbo.. I had it done under warranty and apparently it’s a long job as the subframe etc needs to come out.. never had a problem since.. I remember ranting at the main dealer that if I’d of wanted a car that smoked that much I’d of payed a visit to a local car auction on a Wednesday evening with £200 quid in my pocket and no doubt got fixed up 😊

Had two 3.6tdv8s over the years was considering getting a 4.4 but now might save my money ha ha

I have had my 4.4tdv8 for almost 5 years, and have completed 80K miles, now it is up to 145K. Very happy , yes they do require maiintenance and most would say the LR specced 15K miles scheduled engine oil change is a joke and recommend changing at 8K which is what I do. Enjoyed the vid off to watch a few more. I have the idlers to do as I have a squeak on start up, oh joy , joy , joy.

BTW, ‘Harry’s Garage’ also agrees with you, albeit from a slightly different angle!

Great comparison! I think I’ll stick with my trusty(?) 3.0 L TD6 with 222k on the clock that I’ve had for 7 years and have spent a kings ransom on it! I know all it’s quirks and annoying habits, maintenance is simple in comparison and the tax is very low, again in comparison. If I want revs I just stick it in sport mode. It is regularly serviced, gearbox annually and other oils eg diff etc bi-annual. Have fun!

I think the L405 with this engine also has AdBlue... I've also heard it's not as reliable, but anecdotal. A lot of stories you read on the internet seem to be from people who don't know the difference between a fullfat and a Sport, or don't know what engine they have, let alone why it's broken or the exact details of how or why it died.

Good video, one difference you didn't mention is the 3.6 doesn't have a DPF, and the 4.4 does. Having had previous issues with "DPF full" warnings due to short journey city driving, and having to go for a blast on the motorway to clear it. I chose to buy a 3.6 for that reason. So if you are like me and do lots of short journeys it might be a consideration. They are both great cars though and I probably could be tempted one day with a late model low mileage 4.4. to replace my facelift 3.6 which I have had for over 7 years now and still love to bits. Good look with the channel.

Hey mate. Iv owned multiple of both. The 3.6 is a great machine and so much cheaper. But i think the 4.4 is the better one to own as the 8sp zf box really is the ducks nuts and i love the full throttle performance the 4.4 offers when your inner hoon rares its head
