Chris blows me away with his talent, phenomenal mechanical engineer.

[@toddlerj102]

I agree with your point an placed the 101st(hundred an first) thumbs up.

[@jonjones1290]

Awesome, brilliant content. Investigate, assess, repair

[@adem-Savs]

Got to agree, you both compliment each other. I used to work in an accident repair workshop and Chris is an outstanding guy, there is nothing he cannot do. His attention to detail and skill in mechanics, bodywork, welding is outstanding. I am glad he is not working for some garage, but working as co-owner. Rob deals with the side of the business that Chris doesnt liike. Batman and ROBin.....

[@steveegginton535]

Chris's level of skills on all aspects of automotive repairs never ceases to amaze me! He must have the patience of a saint to spend all those hours on that bearing! That looked a very complex engine but you guys got to the root of the problem quickly and found a solution albeit temporary. Not a great indictment on the ingenium engine that it is basically toast at only 100k, would expect a modern diesel engine to be capable of at least twice that mileage and then some!

[@scotty197878]

I learned something today from this video. The sandpaper and rope was just brilliant. Thanks Chris for explaining what you were doing and I hope to hear more from you on your thinking and explaining why you are doing a job the way you do. Awesome content.very enjoyable. I feel very lucky to have youtube videos like this. We didn't even have mobile phones or personal computers until I was 30 so I appreciate every second of these great creative efforts by people like you two. 👍👍

[@Lizzard-t]

I feel compelled to write this.this has got to be the most interesting, informative and amazing video I have watched this year . Chris should be nominated for a BAFTA award, the way he explained what he was doing, puts the likes of David Attenborough to shame .. From somebody we never saw or heard , to someone who is getting his own slot on thease videos he is Serious! . And it's fantastic to see a man who knows his onions ( and potatoes) , bring an engine that was " knocking " like a Groupie at the stage door of a Roger Whittaker concert, back to life . You 2 are simply amazing, and it shows in the 1700 plus likes to this video. I want more of this , this is the content that stands you head and shoulders above all other car related KZbin channels . All the best to Rob and Chris or Chris and Rob !

Brilliant video chaps. So in a nut shell the cause was really the original owner not driving the car on long runs to blast out the DPF which killed the turbo which in turn caused oil starvation to the crank etc. I'm not a mechanic but you guys really explained how the route cause produced the damage. Will be waiting for the next vid. TT4now

[@hedydd2]

Isn't this a Ford engine as fitted to a Mondeo of the same age?

[@fraser7744]

@@hedydd2 No its an Ingenium diesel. More than 1.5 million have been made since 2014. Problem with the transverse application up until 2019 was the dpf being a short distance from the engine rather than up close to it as in Jaguar XE and XF for instance. If used for short stop start journeys only with no longer journeys, the dpf cleaning cycle is forced by injecting additional fuel to heat the engine up with resulting oil dilution as the excess goes down the bores. If oil services are not carried out at more frequent intervals, engine wear is the result.

[@Vali.N]

@@fraser7744 so did they fix the issue since 2019? Having a brand new engine going bye bye after just 100k, on such a price tag of a car seems nuts to me. And yes I saw everyone stating oil dilution is a huge problem with jlr disco sports, but you were mentioning “up until 2019” and was wondering if they fixed it from 2020 onwards.
