Looking at purchasing an LR4. Largely after reading others comments here which helped to open up my mind about these "modern" rovers and their actual capability.
I was recently told that the LR4s have had some issues with the engines compared to the LR3s that have had virtually none. Apparently the issue comes from a different injection system that is built into the block? If premium fuel isn't used or incorrect oil, they can have issues and need to be replaced at the cost of 5k a side. Dealers have even denied warranty claims if they find out the incorrect oil was used on a single change.
I don't recall seeing anything mentioned on this or could find elsewhere, so thought would see if anyone has any experience here.
Seems like the 3s are going strong through 200k even over 300k miles besides the usual items mentioned frequently here. Anything else popping up on higher milage 4s that should be aware of?
Any input is appreciated as I am searching.
