  • Fix for my LR3 crank, but no start, problem.
    4 day, 600 mile, update around 4:40.
    I didn’t think to take a video of what it was doing, when it wouldn’t start-honestly, I was too pissed that it wouldn’t start. 😅 I’m new to this whole video thing, so bear with me. 🤓
    For a week or 2, I did not shut it off anywhere but home. I checked every fuse, relay, fuel, and spark (along with unsuccessfully searched for the “inertia fuel cutoff switch” it supposedly has, but I’m not convinced, because again, I’ve searched but not found, and the book doesn’t tell of it). I was incredibly frustrated.
    I LOVE my LR3.
    However, not being able to trust it to start is a big deal to me. I did extensive research, and found claims it could be anything from the key switch to the ignition, ecm, immobilizer, fuel pump, fuel cut-off...... the list goes on and on. But I kept coming across claims of cam sensors and crankshaft position sensors.
    I bought the crankshaft position sensor locally, and ordered both cam sensors. The crankshaft position sensor was already in hand-and less expensive, by far-so I started there. Luckily, it seems to have worked like magic. :-)

    Is this the same part for 4.0 V6?

    Dear LR3-lovers. My LR3 MY2008 has a broken crankshaft position sensor too. Relating to the workshop manual and to the LR dealer this is a turbo out job!!
    What do I have to do to fix the problem without taking the turbo out or the whole body off???
    Please help me!!!

    Iv just got a Range Rover vogue 4.4 v8 been absolutely fine no problems then had a really cold night and won’t start the battery is fine and starter motor fine but just won’t fire up could it be the crank shaft sensor? Or spark plugs ? What else should I look for ?

    I'm having the same problem with mine. where is the crankshaft sensor located? Is it hard to get access to?

      It’s under the motor, at the back of the motor, near the transmission. If you left the truck, is rather easy to get to. I suggest only using the genuine Land Rover sensor, as I replaced it 3 times before I finally gave in and went to the dealer.
      If that doesn’t fully solve your problems, you may need to replace your fuel pump. Same principle, use Genuine Land Rover, if possible.

      @@wrench.ride.repeat.9422 Any chance that you could post a video of getting to that location? I’ve literally looked all afternoon and couldn’t find it. But I’m also pretty much a car idiot. Is it located under the skid plate?

      @@chuckk6258 yes, under the skid plate. It’s on the bottom side of the motor, in a little recessed space to keep it protected.

      It would be nice if these videos are done showing wide angle ie distance to figure out where it is located ; only closeup does not work

    Just wondering if this is still working for ya? My car turns over but wont start. It only does it sometimes with no rhyme or reason.

      It does, but we did also end up changing the fuel pump a few months later when suddenly it no longer started at all. The terminals on the fuel pump were completely melted and burnt.

      Lol hit Google search for that shit
      Plus this goes to all of you
      The crankshaft sensor has defected because your timing chains has streched
      Split the engine and service the chain and guides with new ones

      Just finished a timing chain job on my 2011 sport supercharged, jumped 2 teeth due to textbook tensioner failure at 120,000 miles
      having the same issue here cranking and cranking, getting plenty fuel (had a injector-to-rail leak spraying all over my fender)
      thing is in the process I banged the crank sensor around while confirming time with the locking tools because I saw no reason to unplug it
      thinking its busted as I'm getting spark but very abruptly and inconsistent, if not I'm going to have a local shop test my coil packs for response delay
      also the chain was designed not to "stretch" with the link density, fucking wild how they put all the engineering into the chain, but put a plastic button on a guide with a metal pole pounding it harder than johnny sins
