[QUOTE=crazywoody2019;2020639]Hello everyone,
I purchased a 2013 Range Rover Sport Supercharged with 60,000 miles. Took to the mechanic for coolant leak under the hard pipe. They fixed that, changed all the fluids and lines. 10 miles from the shop, check engine like came on and the motor sounded like a Harley- yup supercharger. Returned to the mechanic, 3 weeks later, upon it's the second return to me, the timing belt tensioners and timing belt, thats right, 20 miles folks. Back to the shop, replaced the timing chain , tensioners, and belts. Bring it home AGAIN, lowered the airbags- hard start ( really hard), gas pours out of the motor. Back to the shop, they blamed it on o rings in the injector. I'm 16,000 in on a car I drove less than 200 miles before this.
I meet with the owner of the shop today, I can only assume they are going to pray I don't sue them for negligence.

Not just the parts but that these are "NORMAL" issues.

Why is this in the S-Type forum?

Because she is a V8 supercharger, I apologize if this isn't correct. I'm a new range rover owner

Definitely doesn't belong in any of the Jaguar forums - you want a Land Rover (the LR of JLR) forum.

As for this forum, the cars stopped being made in 2007 and what you describe is just not about an S-Type.

This is a Jaguar forum and the s type was produced until to 2007. I would suggest that you find a Range Rover forum

Such as this they may be help you.

Welcome to the forum crazywood2019,

You have perplexed a number of Jaguar owning members here with a question about your Range Rover. As already recommended, a Land Rover forum is the place to search for answers.

I hope you get the engine issues resolved.

THREAD CLOSED
