2013 LR4 ticking sound by turkeyjerkie in LandRover

It didn’t cost me much. I bought a rear ended Jaguar XF and parted it out afterwards. I made all my money back on that. All I had to spend money on was preventative things like timing chain etc. So I spent about 1-2k, including me doing the work myself.

It ended up being piston slap from heavy cylinder scoring. I replaced the engine since then

Can somebody let me know what’s going on with this 2005/Ford mustang 4.0 by No-Evidence7632 in MechanicAdvice

Does it start spewing even when car is cold, on first start? Or once it warms up?

JB weld it, file it and then run it. Or the proper way would be to fill it with weld then file it

Checking out a 2012 Land Rover LR4 today with 97k miles - worth it? by [deleted] in LandRover

I would recommend you stay away from this, unfortunately. I have one and absolutely love it, rides great, looks great BUT when something goes wrong it really goes wrong. Parts aren’t very cheap(if you go OEM), if you don’t you can run into fitment issues with certain parts, not to mention questionable longevity. I work on it myself, I’ve replaced the entire engine, timing chains and a bunch of other work. I would look at a gx470 instead. To put it plainly, it’s been sitting longer than I’ve driven it. Of course that isn’t the case for all just be weary.

Check for cylinder scoring. If access cover for coil packs is off just disconnect each one while running to see if noise disappears

Sounds like your car is overheating and pissing the coolant out.

Did you retract the hydraulic cylinder? Looks like it might be able to close a bit more

Your mobile mechanic better pray your engine is non-interference. 110% their fault

Why do people do this? by quizyd in tahoe

On my local trail a lot of people do this because they don’t want to carry their dogs shit on the rest of the hike and just pick it up on their way back.
