I removed the bolts shown to be able to get tools in to undo the throttle body, creating movement in dipstick pipe and the loom.

When we collect the F2 from the dealer they actually say to us Land Rover will be in touch and they'd appreciate it if we'd give them top marks for all the questions.
Seriously. |

Just figured out we have a similar problem - makes a noise as soon as the keyfob is in the slot, it's this bit.
From what I can find on here it is a DIY job -any pics available?
Thanks. |

Rear diff repaired and a leaky injector at no cost  under LR goodwill. Happy with that, IMHO the diff was design/manufacture defect anyway and 100% LR, but leaky injector was debatable out of warr ... |

I am very close with three LR dealers, and none of them class the diff or Haldex unit as a common failure.
