Hi Kane

Sorry to hear this has happened to another D3 owner.

This happened to my D3 57 plate, 113k miles in Nov 2016. I bought the car feb 2015 inclusive of cam belt change.

having the car less than two years the tensioner pulley shears off causing engine damage.

I am currently pursuing LR/Pendragon due to this being a well know occurrence in the D3 owners world. Sadly it appears that LR aren't aware of this issue! haha.

I am currently gathering info on the failures and other owners this has happened to, to put towards my case.

This is very time consuming and very stressful as well as very upsetting as my D3 is still currently off the road. Sad

but saying that its worth fighting for as LR need to be held accountable. this is dear to my heart and I will fight as much as I can as my family were in the car at the time the car just stopped dead and lost control! children aged 4 & 7. my life would be destroyed if something happened to them and all because of the D3 poor model of oil pump casing. Mad

if this has happened to anyone it should be reported! I currently have a post going called 'oil pump failure - has this happened to you?' please comment on there if so. thanks.

Kane - I do hope your car is on the mend.
