Hi,
Hello to everyone on the forum, look forward to spending time on here.
I would welcome a view from the forum on my chance of getting a goodwill settlement from land rover UK for my gearbox problem. I have a 55 plate standard 90 Defender that we have had since brand new. The vehicle only has 19k miles on the clock and has developed a very serious bang in the drivetrain.
It usually happens in third gear, and is a sudden one off large bang that makes the whole landy shudder. The high / low range lever will engage / disengage diff lock, but seems frozen in high box, it wont offer to go in low box.
Our local garage has advised it is a transfer box problem, and refered us to the local main dealers to get the work done there.
So the question is, whats my chances of getting some help with the cost of the parts / repair?
Cheers
