Freelander2 engine

Hi all I have a freelander2 2007
I went on holiday with a caravan
125 mile away power was reduced then loss of power pulled over and engine knocking from left hand side with a little smoke
I then got recovered to home. Mobile mechanic has had a quick look needed to jump start but started he said it knocking on
Exhaust side of engine ? I need to know is it reparable or scraped

A lot depends on a number of factors which can only be assessed when the engine is stripped.

The mileage of your present engine is a major consideration - is a complete rebuild necessary or just a repair feasible. Cheers,

    Any fault codes? You will need a bit more info than this to get help, could be an injector problem. What is the evidence for it being on the exhaust? What is your mileage? Smoke implies unburnt fuel. 3 x FL1 2 manual + 1 auto

    Could be turbo boost hose split given the smoke and loss of power ?

    Split turbo hose doesn't cause knocking, as most have said get an an error code or codes, I believe that an injector problem can cause knocking, if the car has gone to safe mode then there will be an error code. Had a similar problem with another make of car, knocking from the top of the engine, though didn't go to limp mode, engine lumpy and car juddered under load, problem disappeared after refuelling within a 100 miles. my PC is slightly to the right of Genghis

    The car is being collected 20th to get it checked out inc codes
    I did think one or more of the injectors failed
