We've updated our reliability stats for the LR2 to include owner experiences through June 30, 2011.

With a repair frequency of 118 repairs per 100 cars per year, the 2008 LR2 has recently been worse than average. Earlier it was about average.

We'll have further updates in November and February. With more participants, we could provide more precise results and cover all model years.

As your research is mainly USA based perhaps a seperate UK survey would be of interest to us in GB

His research is based on the input from the car's owners. In our case FL2 owners.
So, anyone, from anywhere can input data and the application centralize the information.
Maybe more USA owners entered most of the data...

realspeed--sorry for the late reply, I got too busy to participate in forums for a while...

Anyway, the problem with splitting up the sample is that it's already too small!

We've updated the our reliability stats for the LR2 to include owner experiences through September 30, 2012.

With a repair frequency of 68 repairs per 100 cars per year, the 2008 LR2 has been about average.

We'll have further updates in February and May. With more owners involved, we could provide more precise results and cover all model years.

Looks like the 2008 models are getting more reliable the older they get? either that or owners have replaced everything that fails with updated parts?

It's hard to say without a second model year, or at least more 2008s. Sometimes certain things fail at specific ages. There might have been one or two common problems, with nothing else common after those were addressed.

We do commonly see an end of warranty effect, but in this case the blip occurred about a year before the end of the warranty. truedelta.com

I've participated in this reliability survey for yrs now; glad to see that your results are now aligned with experiences shared on here …. the FL2 IS very reliable in most cases! Smile Life is not a dress rehearsal!
