Common Reasons for Problems Starting Your Land Rover’s Engine

by techplusaadmin December 24, 2020

Engine problems can be headache-inducing. The engine is the most critical aspect of a functioning vehicle. Without addressing engine problems early on, you can expect to pay a hefty bill down the road when other parts of your Land Rover fail to function as designed. However, there are several precautions that you can take in order to ensure that you will enjoy the longest life out of your vehicle.

Land Rovers are known for being well-built vehicular beasts. They can take on the rockiest landscapes to the most barren deserts. However, Land Rovers are sadly not invincible. They can malfunction, and engine failures are common to experience at least once throughout your life of ownership of the vehicle.

The causes for engine starting issues may vary, but under the guidance of our professional shop, we can certainly point you toward the possible culprit. We are happy to inspect and diagnose your engine issues and discuss a plan of action to fix any problems.

The Reliability of Land Rovers

Land Rovers are known for having some issues regarding reliability. Among automobile owners, Land Rovers rank mid level in terms of predictability and sturdiness. However, Land Rovers absolutely can cover terrain that similar vehicles in the same category cannot. There is a particular appeal to a vehicle that can scale hills and store all your camping and trail gear for the adventurous weekend out from the bustle of the city. Those who own a Land Rover often feel they are part of a special community.

Dead Batteries are a Frequent Culprit

Dead batteries are a very common problem in Land Rovers due to their use in extreme terrain. Even in city living, if you’ve accidentally left your lights on overnight or left your lights on during the day without realizing it, the potentiality for experiencing a dead battery increases quite a bit.

A word of caution about pre-owned Land Rovers from private sellers. Before you purchase your used Land Rover, be sure to always get the Carfax about the vehicle and do not merely rely on the word of the previous owner about its status. It is very possible that the previous owner may not have had a clear idea about the Land Rover’s health. It is a very common oversight that many people commit without realizing it, and seeing the wear and tear on the previously-owned vehicle can give you a clearer picture of what you may be purchasing.

Problems with the Engine Will Impact Future Repairs

If problems with the engine are not assessed early on, this can expedite the breakdown of your vehicle even further. Not only will this cost more, a weak engine may even become dangerous for you. Therefore, it is of utmost importance that you are aware of the status of your Land Rover.

Getting regular oil changes may be a no-brainer, but there is a bit more to the maintenance of an automobile, particularly one as fancy as a Land Rover. Fortunately, our shop specializes in Land Rover engines.
