Today the car went into limp mode with the engine amber warning light and a "Restricted Performance" message. Car is a 2013 SD4 Auto present mileage 52K

Used Icarsoft Diagnostics and got the following:

P2263 Turbo/Supercharger system perfomance
P259E No DTC Description
P0046 Turbo Circuit Range Performance
P0047 Turbo Supercharger boost control solenoid cct low

Is there anything simple I can check or is it a garage job? The warranty is due to expire on 13/3/2019 so worst case scenario a new Turbo Charger I suppose.

its a Monopoly repair - Straight to garage under that warranty, do not pass Go or you might end up out of pocket. FL2 MY10 TD4 GS traded in at 2 years
FL2 MY13 TD4 GS Current

"Lucky" you ... this happened under warranty
straight to LR dealer

The warranty is a 3rd party one so a max of £45 per hour labour but all parts covered, so warrany route it is.

Friend of mine had a Discovery engine blow up on him when camshaft broke, luckily he had two days of LR warranty remaining so all sorted but don't hang about, get that car to the garage asap so that you have witnesses as to when it happened. 3 x FL1 2 manual + 1 auto
5 x FL2 4 manual + 1 auto
Now Discovery Sport P250 MHEV SE

Local landrover specialist assessed car today, unserviceable turbocharger, warranty company want it taken off for bench testing/repair/replace. Won't commit to it being at fault until its investigated off the car at a turbo specialist. I said if it needs replacing I want genuine landrover, they have said it will be spec as it left factory so might be an argument if it comes to a full replacement.

Sounds just like the hassle my son had with Warranty Direct on a Porsche 911. I have just renewed my extended warranty with LR, not as cheap but no excess to pay and they have been very good in the past. 3 x FL1 2 manual + 1 auto
5 x FL2 4 manual + 1 auto
Now Discovery Sport P250 MHEV SE

It's hassle the repairing garage cannot fit/guarantee parts repaired/supplied by 3rd parties, So. I have the diagnosis need a garage now that is happy to fit a repaired/ outward sourced turbocharger. Needless to say I am not renewing the warranty

Name and shame. FL2 MY10 TD4 GS traded in at 2 years
FL2 MY13 TD4 GS Current

Hence buy cheap, buy twice.

£45/HR labour rate is NEVER going to see your vehicle in a half-decent workshop; even my approved independent is £75/HR in labour....a genuine dealer is double that!

If you are going through the faff of an extended warranty, surely an original OE is worth the extra few quid over a 12 month period....a main dealer is £140/HR upwards alone!

Update: The garage approved by the warranty company are going to spesk to them this morning, however reading the small print it is their policy to have equipments removed and repaired/replaced with item that match Original Vehicle Specification.
So unfortunately naming/shaming would be a bit premature just this serves as a warning to check the small print before accepting any type of warranty that comes with your new/used car.

Well it is Monday now and the garage rang me at 4:45pm "Sir we have your freelander here can you clarify what we have to do with it"? Me "Yes you had to take off the Turbocharger first thing today and send it for repair" Garage: "well sir we have been extremely busy and when you dropped the car off you spoke to the boss, who is on holiday this week, hence the call to clarify what is happening with it"

Think I will be having words with the boss when he gets back!!!!!

Frustratinly my car has been sat in the Warranty companies approved garage for a week now. Excuses like short staff/illness etc. I have had to take the decision to move to another gargrage who cannot start it until April 1st, at least I have used this garage before and I trust them.

The latest garage are happy for me to supply all the consumables as I pay for them anyhow. I assume I need Turbocharge gasket, turbo oil feeder pipe, engine oil/filter.

Also I have been on the Topix site and I cannot find any removal info for the SD4 2013 turbo which I understand is a Mitsubisihi TD04V, I there assume all removal/inst instructions are under the L359 TD4 general version for the year will apply in this case?

So any answers on the Topix/consumables appreciated

Well the car has not been in for repair yet but frustratinly now all the faults have cleared, although I expect the codes are still stored in the computer.

Car is driving normally at present, but as the fault happened under warranty I am inclined to go ahead and get the turbo removed and have it inspected on the bench (Bearing in mind the warranty will only pay if they find a fault)

So I might end up £1000- £1500 out of pocket

In the garage Monday 1st April for turbo removal/replacement


Had the car 6 months and already had three faults, Haldex, Fuel Filter, and now the turbo!!!

I really like the car so hopefully this will be the last of the faults for a while.
