Unexpceted Huge Oil Leak Fixed - Land Rover Discovery TDV6 / S5-Ep4
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
In this weeks episode, we repair an unexpected huge oil leak on Fabians 2009 Land Rover Discovery 3 with the 2.7L TDV6. We did previously rebuild his engine including a line-bore job but we used a aftermarket gasket and here is the penalty for this.

I love Vera's comment " the search and rescue mission for the alternator cable" lol
Best wishes to Fabian on his long trip. Let’s hope he has LR Time recovery insurance! ❤❤

😅 He has the best ADAC has to offer. I think they have to even recover his car out of the jungle if he breaks down. 🙋♀️
Fabian is one lucky fella. The best LR mechs in the country. You make it so easy these days. Precision engineered tools. And the manual that is Vera! A great video. Never miss my sunday must watch!

5min into the vid you guys already have 100+ views. Just shows your content is in demand and highly captivating. Thanks again for keeping us entertained (and informed) team LRtime 😊😊
It’s not Sunday evening until an LR Time video lands. Another lesson in doing it right Christian. Great filming Vera.
Fitting the oil seal while completely drunk or on illegal drugs 😂😂😂😂😂😂 I love the cabaret act while reminding us we should have bought a Toyota. Love my Sunday mornings in bed thanks to you both.❤️

Hate to say it but Toyotas/Lexus are no more reliable look at the issues with their new 2.4 and 2.8 diesel engines or older 3.0 D4D with premature cracked pistons and main bearing failure, when comparing against a near 20 year old LR

Indeed, I crave my 2002 Lexus LX470 V8 on LPG after owning 6 Defenders, 1 LR3 and 2 LR4’s.
Nice to see Landrovers 'self rust proofing' feature is still working ... Have a great day guys and good luck to Fabian.

Stopping the leak voids the warranty.
What is a Land Rover without oil leaks? A friend of mine once said that he wore a Land Rover tie to a function and when he got home he had an oil stain on his shirt.🤣
That’s not an oil leak, it’s anti-rust preservation spay 🤣 Another hectic repair job, wonderfully executed 👍
I do look forward to my favourite Sunday morning viewing, thanks again to you both for providing our entertainment.
Sunday only starts when LR Time arrives ❤️, Fabulous Everytime C & V 👍
Great video guys. Christian , you are so lucky to have Vera looking over your shoulder all the time to make sure you don’t mess up 😊 Enjoyed watching. 👍🏼

I think Land Rover have a part number for the oil patch on the drive, as well as one for the spider that lives in the wing mirror. See you next Sunday.
Where do we listen to this discussion "should you buy a Discovery with a broken engine and million miles" ? :D

Vera . Working on cars is great when you waych tv 😜, but as technician its always difficult to explain to customers its a big job $$ lol I would put a small bead of sealent permatex ultra grey
I am at a loss for words how terribly good you are with these cars. A talent away from all engineering... Great fun to see. The people must be very grateful to have a neighbor like you.☺
@vera. Can we have a tee shirt with " Debacle " I love how you guys say it!
Yes, very enjoyable, thanks and quite relaxing watching you fix complicated stuff. Lightyears away from the old series LRs which I'm told that local Scottish hill farmers used to keep going for decades with any old tools to hand, changing engines when the old ones were completely worn out. When the ancient LRs were sold on, often on a farmer retiring and selling up, buyers weren't interested in the mileage so much as when the engine was last changed!
It was a nice touch to see some photos and videos from fabian down there. 😍
Today I learned that Vera cannot just pop off to make food as Christian needs supervision counting to 10!😂
I'm jealous of Fabian because he had Vera & Christian work on his vehicle. 😔 Steve looks like my kinda guy to go have beers with
Came for the technical content, stayed for the A+ commentary! You guys are just too wholesome. It's become ritual to watch your videos on Monday lunch at work.

I've posted comments about clutch judder and thin oils on another channel and had a right telling off, why? If you don't try you don't know, but who cares, keep up the good work, I love it, OMG!

Thanks Guys..... Always a pleasure to watch..
It kills me how many spare parts you need to keep around to keep an LR running.
You are the best couple mechanics!
Outstanding knowledge and content well done and thank you.
I dont know why but we have 2 RR sports together for 13 years.1 is gone now second still as work truck and we never had oil leak both are 2.7 V6 and i always put them above my Merc 3.0 V6 cause that one always develop leak. But engine durability is another topic :D
Good morning Vera & Christian 😊 As always a fantastic video with lots of humour and very good technical information 👍🏻 How lucky 🍀 is Fabian having you guys helping out with his repairs 🤩 Looks like an awesome 👏🏻 road trip. Hope you’ve both got your travel plans ready for a fixing trip to Africa 🤣 Have a great week see ya next Sunday for another exciting episode of LR times 😊 Hugs and kisses for Vera 😍🤗 xx
I can get the crank locking pin in without taking the starter out. Just reach through from the wheel arch and you can see it. 👍
Thanks Guys - Another week of LR Brilliance

Great job chief👍
Never get bored of watching you work on the Discos. Hope that Fabian has a great trip in the Disco 3..

I love your weekly video on the maintenance of a Land Rover. I enjoy the German precision way of working on these very complex vehicles. Well done to you Christiaan and Vera for an enjoyable viewing every week. Greetings from a very hot South Africa.
My Sunday morning fix is complete! We have done East to West (Skeleton Coast) Southern Africa in a D3 overland. I hope Fabian has a KZread channel to follow his adventures. We need that Africa fix on a Sunday morning alongside Christian & Vera, my Sunday would then be complete ❤
Super Video nach altem Stil 😊 ich finde es auch toll, das ihr das Thema wiederholt. Überhaupt nicht schlimm. So frischt man alles wieder etwas auf... ❤
Good evening from sunny Oz!
Well that should see Fabian safely start on his adventure good land rover and parenting skills ❤

Hi my name is Tim and I have a Landrover Discovery 4 I live in Australia it has been the best car I have ever owned in 30 years of driving I love your shows and how you hate Toyota owner's!

Hi from Costa Rica! Very entertaining videos.
I envy Fabian. I wish I had someone like he has to help me work and learn more about maintaining my car. It’s a Subaru Crosstrek by the way, ‘21 Ltd. You guys are awesome.
I had 3 Discoveries in the 90’s. First one in 1990 and every 2 years another , all NEW!!!!. First one was fine , second one a disaster , consumed oil from day 1 . Before they installed oversized pistons they tried everything under warranty ! Then problems with drive shaft bearings . Forget to make holes in flywheel so no lubrication behind . Lots of problems and I said never again , British (and Americans) cannot build cars . You people show a lot of courage and it proves that it did not get any better . You guys are experts and are very enthusiastic but it takes a lot of time ! Good luck I love your vlogs !
Hi Chris here from UK. Always a great video. for Sunday evening. Bon Voyage F.
I love your videos so much, keep up the good work ❤
Brilliant 🤩
Very nice 👍! 👏👏🙌
Great new episode. Have fun in Spain (and Afrika if You made it).

👍 wow! all of that in just one (long) day. I'm guessing that you have probably saved Fabian > 1k Euros and more importantly probably did a better job than many main dealers - you are good friends to have. Very interesting re: the comparison of the two gaskets - it must be an art to know when it is worthwhile to get aftermarket vs when you really need to go OEM. Congratulations to you all, and of course, Bon Voyage to Fabian. PS good for you for the shout-out to Steve(? hope I got the name right) who showed you that trick - and a shout-out to him also for his heartfelt speech on the internet!

Somewhere there’s a JLR “engineer” sipping on his afternoon tea going-oh well,never mind
Could do with you guys over in England for my P38 diesel. Since I became ill I can't do half of what I want. After watching loads of your videos I'd happily let you guys work on mine. Keep it up guys. You make my chemo days much happier - I spend most of the days watching you 2. Take care all the best. Please don't stop making these.
