Dynamic fluid gone!

Came out to the Rangie this morning to find Suspension fluid on the driveway, on further investigation it has sprayed all over the rear exhausts and underneath the back of the vehicle. Popped the bonnet to look at the reservoir and its as good as empty!

No warning lights or dash lights Rolling Eyes

That doesn't sound good. Hopefully a blown pipe rather than a dead bar.

My rear ARB is leaking - I found out at the weekend. Looks like a new rear bar will be required. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed

Just a quick update on this. Was diagnosed as the rear anti-roll bar leaking and needing to be replaced. A lot of work and a substantial cost. Currently have a RRS2 that has grown on me somewhat over the last few days Whistle 2003 BMW M5 - 5 Litres of V8 Optimax Slurping Goodness in Carbon Black

My rear ARB is leaking. No warranty. With 154k miles on the clock, it'll be getting an OEM part...

The current ARB is actually the second one fitted to the car. It was done under warranty at about 60k miles. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders

Its a 2500 job at the dealers including the new Parts! Shocked Also a partial body lift at the rear to get it out as there isnt much space otherwise.

35K on the one coming out. Must have been the Great British Land Rover show offroad course that finally finished it off last Sunday! Rolling with laughter 2003 BMW M5 - 5 Litres of V8 Optimax Slurping Goodness in Carbon Black

Hi buckster, sorry to hear about the demise of the rear arb. Mine is also leaking and has been for the last couple year, I keep an eye on the level and keep it topped up. It is getting slowly worse and I'm going to have to change it one of these days Sad
Iooking into it,it seems the bar on our TDV8's is different to the one used on the TDV6 and s/c's. on a good note the TDV8 ones are 200 cheaper.

I keep thinking about taking out a warranty. Who with and what cost ? Always think they'll plead wear and tear when it comes to leaks.
As an aside have started to pickup on a slight judder on like throttle, thinking maybe the dreaded torque convert but it's very intermittent and there's no fluctuating rev counter which seems to be the norm. Had the gearbox flushed about 10k ago also checked the rear prop centre bearing which is ok. Something to keep an eye on. Got a good run with the caravan on the back next week so should give it a good run (hopefully not on the back of a tow truck) Very Happy 2008 G4 RRSport TDV8 current

Im still with L/R warranty as I renewed with them. Glad i did now! RRSTDV8 might be able to help you out with your symptoms as I believe he did a torque converter last year.

I hope you get to the bottom of it Camelrock Thumbs Up 2003 BMW M5 - 5 Litres of V8 Optimax Slurping Goodness in Carbon Black
