Range Rover Sport Problems
No car is perfect, but we've gathered everything relating to the Range Rover Sport reliability here to help you decide if it's a smart buy.
Is the Range Rover Sport 2002 expensive to maintain?
Not if you use a mechanic who knows their way around a Range Rover. There are mechanics that specialise in them and they know them best.
Range Rover Sport 2014: Transmission replacement
First, talk to JLR directly, but at best they would probably only cover part of the cost of repairs as the vehicle is not five years old and has done 175,000 km. You could also appeal to Allianz, given that there is a history of problems with the transmission during the warranty period.
Range Rover Sport, Touareg or Grand Cherokee?
You could go for a Mercedes-Benz GLC with similar features and save money. My choice — perhaps surprisingly — is the Jeep. Just make sure you find a good dealer.
Changing a Range Rover Sport camshaft rear seal?
Land Rover spokesman James Scrimshaw has your answer: "If Mr Walford took his 2011 Range Rover Sport to an authorised Land Rover dealer, they have access to the special tools that are required to remove and replace the rear camshaft seal. The suggested time allocated for this work is approximately 3.5 hours and the body would not need to be removed from the vehicle".
Range Rover Sport or Discovery 3 for towing horse float and commuting?
The Discovery 3 was hailed as a great car when it was introduced and it has largely lived up to the hype. The fundamentals like engine, gearbox and diffs are sound, but you have to be prepared for irritating things like electrics, driveshafts, compressor on the airbag models to give trouble. It’s that when the Disco becomes expensive. On average a 2007 model will be showing 180,000 to 240,000 km on the odo, and I would be going for a newer model with fewer kays on the clock. Same goes for the Range Rover.
