alantd Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 We should have a running tally of these TSBs. Perhaps with references/links to the original. I'd like to go in to a service with a full list of all the updates to be made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eduardo Posted October 22, 2008 Author Share Posted October 22, 2008 Thank you for this piece of info.My Puma is going in for its first service at the Dealers. Anything else I should be aware of ? Some other things: - Most important: Oil sump (check if your have the new design or not. if not, request the change) - Fuel tank breather relocation (In ours is still in the original position but several persosn requested the relocation of it) You can see here several threads with information about issues of the Puma. regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Badger Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 Ok, mine went in for a service because of a gearbox noise. Came back with a new gearbox and a modified oil sump. I think I have that leak mentioned.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marc1187 Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 We should have a running tally of these TSBs. Perhaps with references/links to the original.I'd like to go in to a service with a full list of all the updates to be made. Just a note about this, technical bulletins are not recalls, the only way a dealer will carry out a tech bulletin is if there is a fault with the part, ie they will only change the part to the updated one if its leaking/faulty and ideally the customer has complained of it, they cant change it just because it may fail or land rover know there is a problem with them. Hope that makes sense. It would be good to have a section with just technical bulletins listed, may help people diagnose faults. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eduardo Posted October 23, 2008 Author Share Posted October 23, 2008 Marc, You are right! This is not a recall, so is not mandatory. But helps a lot to know if the fault is spread around the users and to be prepared when the fault happens. Regards, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
