Range Rover Evoque or Discovery Sport owners: if your 4x4 display shows a traction fault, the dealer will likely quote you over £2,000 for a new Haldex unit. Do not sign anything before reading this.
JLR's Official Admission: Bulletin LTB00795
Manufacturers issue internal Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs) intended only for their workshops. JLR's Bulletin LTB00795 confirms that debris accumulates on the Haldex pump screen, causing failure.
Yet, this crucial information was never added to the customer's service schedule. This is a perfect example of documentary negligence: you could not maintain a part that the manufacturer claimed was "maintenance-free."
