Problems:
Brake system malfunction
Dynamic Brake Support (DBS) systems can sometimes malfunction, leading to reduced braking efficiency or unexpected braking behavior.
Wear and tear on brake components
Over time, the DBS system components such as sensors, actuators, and control units may wear out and require maintenance or replacement.
Oil leaks
V-shaped engines like the one in the Range Rover Sport are prone to oil leaks from the valve cover gaskets and oil pan gaskets.
Timing chain issues
V8 engines can experience timing chain problems, which can lead to poor engine performance or even engine failure if not addressed.
Cooling system failures
The cooling system in V8 engines can sometimes fail, leading to overheating issues. This can be caused by a faulty water pump, radiator, or thermostat.
Fuel injector problems
The fuel injectors in the S/C LEV2 ULEV engine may clog or fail, leading to poor engine performance and reduced fuel efficiency.
Supercharger issues
Since this engine is supercharged (S/C), the supercharger itself can experience issues such as bearing wear or belt failure.
Sensor failures
Modern engines like the S/C LEV2 ULEV rely heavily on sensors, and issues with oxygen sensors, MAP sensors, or MAF sensors can lead to engine performance problems.
Exhaust system corrosion
Over time, the exhaust system, including the catalytic converters and exhaust pipes, can corrode, leading to leaks and reduced efficiency.
Electrical problems
The advanced electronics in newer vehicles, including the Range Rover Sport, can sometimes fail, causing issues with the engine control unit (ECU) or other electronic components.
