I have a 2016 discovery Sport with 147K miles on it...we have driven it all over the U.S., from camping and off roading in Florida to Phoenix and the desert and upstate NY in the winter snow and all I have ever paid for is the dealership recommended Maintenace (LR dealers do charge a pretty penny for maintenance) but the car has been 100% trouble free, never a failure on any part yet...though it seems the AC compressor is only working at about 80% now as it doesn't blow much cold air at idle time in the summer, but once rolling still keeps us very cool in the hot Florida summer. I am on my 2nd pair of rotors and brake pads and looks like i need a third sometime this year or next.
I have 7 of them in my rental car fleet. Upper radiator hose has blown on 3 of them. I bought 3 of them needing turbos. And 3 needing timing chain phasers on the ford ecoboost engine. Right side motor mount also makes the body vibrate. 2 water pumps have blown out on me as well. 1 at 110k miles and one at 130k. Bluetooth sometimes resets and turns back on. But overall I love them. Once you learn about them. It’s easy to prevent everything.
How do you look after them to prevent problems? I seen lots of people on forums reporting the alternator belt snapping and requiring a change on the tensioner too, I believe this had a recall?
This is a great video and help me to make the decision, thank you very much! (Liked and Subscribed) 👍👍👍
Especially
1. No Power steering wheel - I had a similar experience on the Mini Cooper S Countryman
2. Door Lock - It's on safe in Toronto
Don’t forget the DPF filling up, needs long drives to run the dpf regen. Also my reverse camera filled with salt water, bloody expensive to replace. Recommend to change all fluids regularly to keep many of the issues at bay.
nice video thanks for sharing. these are sold in many different countries around the world.
problems with the Ingenium JLR engines can be avoided by selecting an optional engine choice. in USA these can be found with either an Ingenium 2.0L Turbo or Ford EcoBoost 2.0L Turbo.
3:02 it looks like these are the bolts attaching the electric steering rack to the subframe, not the bolts that attach the steering rack to the steering rack motor.
I know someone who owns one of these with a Ford engine and it has been reliable. The only issue so far is a weak door card that is becoming loose from pulling the drivers door shut.
Do you think Nissan x-trail is better as I confused between them?!
100% better
Are you referring to the diesel or petrol version?
Diesel
How come your review of this is the exact same wording as your review of the velar? Apart from swapping discovery sport for velar..
Same cars different body
I should add that there are loads of companies now who will rebuild the gear selectors, mostly for a couple of hundred GBPs or so... Easy to take out of the car yourself and mail it to them. EssexRecons, ECU testing etc...
The steering bolts usually fail at parking speeds though, as that's when they are at their most stressed.... As you say, free repair at JLR, just call them to book. There could be a waiting list though...
0:46 at only 46 seconds in and already it’s a golden reason to stay away from these cars.
And for clarity, if your engine does ruin itself, it’s over £10k GBP to replace it.
I’ve owned enough JLR cars to know that you should never, ever buy a JLR car.
Well said
I think the petrols are better, but I'm looking at the 2.2 SD4, which they used in the Freelander 2 and early Evoques. They're robust units, with just the general diesel failure points. In fairness to JLR, they're not the only company to have camchain issues, all the German brands have also had them, but for some reason they seem to get a pass due to their 'legendary' reliability.
I would love to get a Discovery Sport for myself but I am actually a bit scared to trade my Audi A3 TFSI for a Land Rover.
idk if i want this car anymore
I want to buy one RIGHT NOW!!!
WAIT!!!
I WANT 2 OF THEM!!!!!😂😂🎉🎉😂😂🎉🎉
Dont want to sound rude but why the heck do people buy this car? For a green oval badge?
Because they are amazing to drive and generally be in. Lovely interior and great off road. I love mine and have had zero issues, I do have the older 2.2 though...

Great!
Did you purchase it new or 2nd hand
I picked it up at 7 years old for a quarter of the new price, and it was as new inside and almost outside too, result... :-) @@mohammedabdulaziz7711
Hood latch sensors are trash as well as retainer clips for wheel well trim
Not a good engine not as good as a freelander 2 which is brilliant
The previous gen engine was much better
They aren't even that great interior wise conpared to other companies
