Thanks EYorkshire - any way I can further test and see if this is truly the cause? You may be right actually as the noise sounds pretty similar to what you would hear when a steering pump runs on low fluid or when defective.

Sorry I don't know of any way, the only reason for my post is that my previous SD4 auto 'whined' a little also at a certain RPM just below yours but worse when cold.

Will take it to LR - really curious what they will say. Mine is pretty much the same when cold.

Did you listened in the engine bay, having somebody else to push the throttle?

Found the culprit - one year later! The plastic support of the chrome arse was vibrating against the tailgate at exactly that RPM. It also created some nice scratches each side of the plastic bit, which were eventually fixed by LR under warranty. Initially LR had no idea where the issue was, but once the tailgate was fixed the whining disappeared.

It's always nice to hear what the problem was. Thanks for reporting back. Many don't! |
