Afternoon all,
we have a 66plate my17 evoque which we’ve leased from new.
We have had dpf issues from day dot really. In May last year Land Rover admitted there was a fault a known fault with the DPF filter in my car it was then replaced under warranty. However shortly after then we noticed fumes in the cabin of the car goes back to Land Rover turns out the filter wasn’t fitted correctly. Fast forward to yesterday Morning I pull off the drive and for the first time since then the engine filter warning light comes on I get about 2 miles down the road and the red warning light comes on advising the car to go to dealer.
I spoke to Land Rover (we are now out of warranty) Explained the issues and the previous ones I was told I would get a phone call back and an email. These things never materialised, I found today very dismissive staff and I’m finding myself panicking.
Surely we should’ve had more than four minutes to get the car at a speed to clear the DPF filter. I wondering whether this is a sensor issue or whether it’s a DPF filter issue either way I’m reluctant to be out of pocket when this issue had been apparently fixed just over six months ago.
My trust in Land Rover is lacking has anyone experienced similar I’m expecting there to be at least a few? And is there an alternative way I can go about getting this fixed and avoiding possibly a good thousand spent on another repair?
