I can heartily recommend them ! They are part of the Yeovil group


Not quite right - they are part of the Helston Garages Group as is the Yeovil group.

Well corrected, what I was actually trying to make reference to was Yeovil LR as most folk on this site are aware of their good reputation.

A bit like mentioning stratstone but in reverse order

Cam belt ! As its in the VIN range for failure no doubt


By this i take it you were referring to dodgy oil pump casting failure?

I've checked the VIN and it is a 2009 model year, when did they start to realise the problem and use the revised pump casting? (not that there is a problem of course)

See if this helps at all ?


Right, just to sum up:

Part no: 1348651,( still a currently sold part). upto 6a999999. No reported failures.

Part number: LR002465, (superceeded to LR013487) 7a000001 to 8a457085.... Has anyone had any fail in this chassis range?

Part number LR007131, ( superceeded to LR013487) 8a457086 to 9a508509.... I have checked & both failures I have seen fell in this chassis range.... 50-60,000 miles, never had a belt change. Both 57 plates

Part number LR007798 (superceeded to LR013487) 9a508510 to 9a510121.. Has anyone had any fail in this chassis range?

Part number LR013487 9a510122 on, inc 3.0. seems like the solution to 7a/8a/9a models?

Would be handy those that have had failures to look to see which part number range you fall into, then we will have a better idea of who has to worry!

I plucked the above post from another thread but it didn't include the footer which said
Thanks Steve, I think it was Steve raspberry ?!
