Houston We Have a Problem ! - New Defender Ingenium P400 Engine Issue @840 Miles ! Error P1315

In this video join us and we try and investigate an engine issue on our new Land Rover Defender with just 840 miles on the clock. The engine is the Ingenium P400 Engine. This comes up on the diagnostics with error code P1315-00 (15) Persistent Misfire

[@ggj666]

Its probably designed not to tell you by engine lights of any fault at all until the day after your warranty expires, then it will light up the dash like a Christmas tree

[@bamog4560]

Exactly 👍

[@scotthutchinson2184]

I have a P400 and at about 25000 miles, it would seem to cut out under load. Dealer couldn’t find anything. No CEL ever. Finally, a few months later, it dropped a cylinder under the same load condition. I drove it straight to the dealer. Was told it was a stuck injector, new engine, several months later running good. 🤞🏻

[@system11yt]

Stuck injector is a new engine job? Oof.

[@scotthutchinson2184]

@@system11ytI believe the injector stuck open and toasted the cylinder. That’s my guess. They did say that cylinder #1 had lost compression.

[@madmax6461]

The Freelander will give less problems as it has a decent engine not an Ingenium

[@bobuilt10]

No doubt modern engines are overly complicated but my biggest concern is the engineers have forgotten how to design a reliable engine. For example, plastic cam chain guides that shatter, cam chains that are way too skinny and made from chocolate. How about a rubber cam belt running in engine oil that degrades and starves the oil supply. I don't think this is your issue but Land Rover over stressed the cam chain on this range of engines and then compounded it by putting the chain on the gearbox end meaning you need to take out a second mortgage just to do any preventative maintenance.

[@L663]

I am worried that the timing chain driving 6 cylinder may be more stressed - but my problem was much more simple and easy to fix - but still not good.

[@davidoldboy5425]

Completely agree, I often wonder if modern engineers are actually taught engineering as it used to be i.e. 'over engineered' as opposed to might just make it. Thank God our forefathers didn't have this mantra, which is why we still have bridges, roads, railways and old cars that still run.

[@dxg999]

Wait what? The chain is on the same end as the gearbox??? Does any other engine do that?

[@stephend4683]

​@@davidoldboy5425nothing wrong with the engineers, it's sadly the 'bean counters' trying to cut costs to keep the very senior management happy.... Who they themselves are trying to keep Tata happy. I know engineers who despair when instructed to use lower quality materials, when they have designed and tested using best quality. Sometimes even down to nuts and bolts. Land Rover design engineers are (in the main) brilliant.

[@russella7263]

Timing chain at the gearbox end isn’t so much a cost saving as a government mandated safety feature. The cam chain sprockets increase the height of the engine slightly. Putting them at the back means there’s a touch more room between top of engine and hood/bonnet near the front which is better for pedestrian safety.

I had the same problem on my 2008 NAS Freelander 2 with the 3.2 i6 Petrol. Suddenly went into "Limp Mode/ Reduced Engine Performance." Turned out to be a Bad Ignition Coil Pack. I have 326,000 Miles on it with No Warning Lights or complaints. I read an interview with Charles Spencer King once who when asked about Land Rover's Questionable Reliability he said," We Purposely made them too Sophisticated," meaning the Sensors have Sensors. Also, as proof of my claim the LR2/FL2 was a LR Unicorn, I haven't found many at the Salvage Yard nor at the Dealership for Repairs. Why? Because They are still on the Road. Good Luck Simon...

[@jugganaut33]

Agreed. 2008- 2010 were the best years for the early digital landrovers. 2011-2014 they have the same electrical issues as BMW’s and posers cars. 2014 onwards they went eco crazy and Killed any reliability by pinching pennies

[@GavinEarnshaw]

In answer, "are modern engines too complicated for their own good?" Yes. Also the problems caused by too many fingers in the pie of development, Bosch, Valeo etc. all making their own systems that have to integrate and work together. While making a profit and meeting emissions standards in a big SUV. I'm no luddite, as I'm ex IT and Masters in Electronics. Once interviewed for a research job at Sony Japan. I also run a Megasquirted Rover V8 in my '85 90 auto. Tesla is showing the way with vertical integration, all internal software development and hardware. (ignore Musks politics if that helps). Peak ICE was probably 90s VW TDI. Strong, reliable, fuel efficient, enough power/torque and relatively simple.

Hello Simon. Worrying news then.😰😰😰 That much goo in the oil filler cap is very worrying…I’ve checked mine and it is totally clean other than normal oil spray. One thing I have noticed and it is something I have always avoided is starting the engine and not running it up to full, hot temperature…..I’m just wondering if it needs a good long, fast drive of 200 miles to defog everything. My P400e PHEV is super smooth and almost silent…only climbing a hill slowly brings some low level sound…it is the four cylinder 2.0l petrol….it gives remarkable results BUT the constant starting and stopping does worry me…so many cold starts. My LR warranty runs out next April and I fear what the bought warranty will cost…I have had thoughts about changing it before I get to buy one.sadly, JLR don’t make anything for us now as the new RRS is simply too high to get I even in access mode. If your engine problems follows the problems so many report then I’m wondering about a used EV or big discount. I await the answer….it might be expensive if LR disown the problem.😰😰😰😬😬😬R.

So right, it’s a badly tarted up Discovery 4 in so many ways, and is certainly not a Defender in any way, bar the name! This is LR creating a vehicle that will see the no longer popular “ Discovery” get dropped, so the range will be Defender and Range Rover variants only! The Discovery has such a bad reputation from Discovery 2 TD5 right to the Discovery 5 for reliability and issues. I own a Discovery 4 SCV6 and this has been very reliable bar the stupid plastic water cross over pipe under the supercharger. Replaced that and I now run waterless coolant from Liquid Intelligence, that can not boil and does not create ( or need ) 22psi to work, as this is a large part of the issue!

Usually with most modern cars when a misfire is detected the affected cylinder fuel injector will shut off to prevent damage to catalytic converter, im gonna ignition coil or spark plug is at fault, or harness to the ignition coil has corroded or having issues since its counting a miss fire, and most engine with timing off that runs wont detect that as a misfire.

@@L663 Low mileage so not getting hot often enough. Engine temperature is fluctuating with ambient temperature and causing condensation. When you do use it then oil is mixing with the condensation in the cap

[@philhealey4443]

@L663 Water vapour as a combustion product will migrate into the crankcase as a small amount of piston / cylinder wall leakage and possibly also via the exhaust valve guides into the camshaft "rocker" box. It will condense inside a cold engine and emulsify with oil if the engine is not brought up to working temperature. So a lot of cold starts and shunting around your workshops will not allow this water to be evaporated as the engine rarely warms up. The drive it 200 miles idea is good but maybe extreme. 50 miles weekly would be a good bet. Gathering the misfire was a coil pack, presumably yet another modern engine "feature" is inability to take out the plugs, crank and see six fat sparks ? The rocker box mayonnaise gloop was a regular feature in my youth helping a Post Office manager with his moonlighting engine rebuild operation for the ubiquitous knackered Austin 1100s driven presumably short distances by most of Plymouth's postmen.

I own 2023 Land Rover Defender, p400e, x. Yesterday check engine light vent on, car was driving fine, but with weird noise, it was very cold outside. I went straight to my garage. We don't have an official Land Rover dealer in my country. I have connected the gap tool, following errors came out -p3039-92(6c), P1A22-00 (A8), P0AFA-00 (AC). I have tried to clear faults, but they still appear. In the morning I connected again, and could not clear them, but the little engine sign next to the faults had gone, and the check engine light went off. I drove the car for about 20 km, just fine, no strange noises or anything, no check engine lights. Can anybody help me with it? Should I just keep driving and observe?

Anybody know if the D300/D350 in the new range rover are bmw/alpina tuned engines?
