Review: Land Rover L322.I Range Rover Vogue (2005-09)

Overview

Released in August 2005, the Land Rover L322 Series I (L322.I) Range Rover Vogue was a five-seat, four-wheel drive wagon. Manufactured in Solihull, England, the L322 Range Rover Vogue range initially consisted of the 2.9 Td6, 4.4 V8 and Supercharged 4.2 V8 variants. In 2007, the 2.9 Td6 was replaced by the 3.6 TDV8.

Engines

Of the engines,

  • The 2.9-litre M57 D29 inline six-cylinder turbo-diesel engine had high pressure injection, double overhead camshafts, four valves per cylinder and a compression ratio of 18.0:1;
  • The 3.6-litre V8 turbo-diesel engine had common rail direct injection (with piezo injectors and maximum pressure of 1650 bar), double overhead camshafts, four valves per cylinder, compression ratio of 17.3:1;
  • The 4.4-litre Jaguar AJV8 engine had sequential fuel injection, double overhead camshafts, four valves per cylinder, a single row timing chain, variable valve timing (BMW’s VANOS) and a compression ratio of 10.0:1; and,
  • The 4.2-litre V8 petrol engine had an Eaton supercharger, double overhead camshafts, four valves per cylinder and a compression ratio of 9.1:1.

A six-speed automatic transmission was fitted as standard across the range.

Dimensions

Replacing the L322 Range Rover , the L322 Range Rover Vogue was 4971 mm long, 2009 mm wide, 1902 mm tall and had a 2880 mm long wheelbase.

Suspension

The L322 Range Rover Vogue had a monocoque chassis with MacPherson strut front suspension and double wishbone rear suspension. The suspension, however, included air springs with electronically operated valves in pneumatic lines to link adjacent air springs. In the event that a wheel on one side of the vehicle was raised when driving off-road, the pneumatic valves would open to force the adjacent wheel downwards, thereby simulating the action of a live axle.

4WD system

The L322 Range Rover Vogue’s permanent four-wheel drive system consisted of a Torsen T-2 centre differential and a chain-driven transfer case which enabled ‘hi’ and ‘lo’ gear ratios to be engaged while driving. In normal conditions, the Torsen T-2 (Type B) differential provided a 50:50 front:rear torque split, but up to 65 per cent of the engine’s torque could be directed to either axle in the event that a loss of traction was anticipated (i.e. it was a preventative or pro-active system). From 2007, the 4WD system was revised with a lockable centre differential and Land Rover’s ‘Terrain Response’ system (see ‘January 2007 update’, below).

The Range Rover Vogue was also fitted with hill descent control.

Safety equipment

Standard safety equipment included dual front airbags, front side airbags, curtain airbags for front and rear occupants, ABS, brake assist, electronic brake force distribution, electronic stability control, cornering brake control, rollover stability control, traction control and front seatbelts with pretensioners and load limiters. From 2007, the Range Rover Vogue was also fitted with driver and front passenger knee airbags.

Features

Initially, standard features for the Range Rover 2.9 Td6 and 4.4 V8 included 19-inch alloy wheels, an eleven speaker Harman/Kardon sound system with a six-disc CD player, dual-zone climate control air conditioning, satellite navigation system with touchscreen, leather seats, power adjustable front seats, cruise control with speed alert, front fog lights, bi-xenon headlights with washers, reversing camera, front and rear parking sensors, Bluetooth connectivity, automatic headlights, rain-sensing wipers, split and folding rear seats, leather-wrapped steering wheel, remote central locking, power windows and heated mirrors, power folding mirrors with automatic dipping on reverse, power adjustable steering column (height and reach), power sunroof, driver memory settings (steering column, seat position, mirrors), cargo cover, trip computer, an alarm and immobiliser

The Range Rover Supercharged 4.2 V8 was further equipped with 20-inch alloy wheels with Brembo four-piston front brake calipers, a fourteen speaker Harman Kardon Logic7 surround sound system, heated front and rear seats, a heated steering wheel, directional headlights, electrochromatic door mirrors and ski bag. Visually, the Supercharged 4.2 V8 was distinguished by its mesh grille.

January 2007: Range Rover Vogue update

From January 2007, the Range Rover Vogue was updated and fitted with stiffer anti-roll bars and air springs which claimed to reduce bodyroll by 50 per cent. Inside, there were additional storages, improved surface finishes, a revised dashboard and a more effective air conditioning system; an ‘acoustic’ laminated windscreen also reduced cabin noise levels. Visual changes were limited to a slightly revised grille.

The post-2007 Range Rover Vogue was also fitted with a lockable centre differential and Land Rover’s ‘Terrain Response’ system which enabled the driver to select one of five terrain settings: 1) general; 2) grass/gravel/snow; 3) mud and ruts; 4) sand; and 5) rock crawl. For each setting, the system adjusted the differential locking ratio, traction control system, hill descent control, anti-lock system and suspension height.

Standard features were extended to include a Brembo four-piston front brake calipers, a power adjustable front passenger seat, voice recognition, a TV tuner (analogue and digital), power-operated park brake and heated front windscreen. The 3.6 TDV8 Luxury was similarly equipped to the Supercharged 4.2 V8; these variants were further equipped with ventilated front seats, a six-disc CD/DVD player with rear screen, wireless headphones and Land Rover’s Venture Cam (a wireless external camera which was linked to the touch screen). The 4.2 Supercharged was further equipped with an electronic rear differential and could be identified by its diamond-mesh grille and side vents.

Range Rover Vogue Autobiography editions

In November 2008, ‘Autobiography’ editions of the 3.6 TDV8 and Supercharged 4.2 V8 variants were released. The Autobiography editions featured semi-aniline leather-lined doors, fascia, centre console and floor mats; there were also 20-inch diamond-turned twin-seven spoke alloy wheels, new front seat designs with contrast stitching, ‘Diamond mesh’ grille and side vents, stainless steel pedals and special acoustic and ‘acoustic’ and ‘climate’ glass for the windscreen and front side windows to reduce noise and heat.

Recalls & faults: Land Rover L322 Range Rover Vogue (2005-12) https://www.australiancar.reviews/recalls-faults-land-rover-l322-range-rover-vogue-2005-12/ Sun, 27 Dec 2020 23:21:29 +0000 http://prod.australiancar.reviews/recalls-faults-land-rover-l322-range-rover-vogue-2005-12/

Recalls: Land Rover L322 Range Rover Vogue

Overview

Manufacturers, or importers, issue recalls for defects or faults which have the potential to cause injury. Generally, manufacturers will inform the original buyers if their vehicle is subject to a recall and of the steps required to remedy the defect or fault. Please note that the recalls below (if any) are for Australian-delivered vehicles only. Furthermore, the number of recalls should not be taken as an indication of a model’s reliability or its safety more generally.

Recalls: Land Rover L322 Range Rover Vogue

2005-06 model year Land Rover L322 Range Rover Vogue: ‘Park’ may not engage

In November 2005, a recall was issued for MY2005 and MY2006 L322 Range Rover Vogue models fitted with automatic transmissions as the transmissions may not fully engage ‘Park’ when selected (PRA 2005/8160).

2009 Land Rover L322 Range Rover Vogue: windscreen bonding

In July 2009, a recall was issued for L322 Range Rover Vogue models manufactured from April 2009 to May 2009 in the VIN range LM305421 to LM306546. For these vehicles, the windshield may not be chemically bonded to the Polyurethane (PU) adhesive, allowing water ingress and higher wind noise. If there was no chemical bond between glass and the adhesive, full windshield retention may not be achieved in the event of a crash of sufficient severity to deploy the front airbags (PRA 2009/10917).

2012-13 Land Rover L322 Range Rover Vogue TDV6 and TDV8: crank position sensor

In July 2016, a recall was issued for Land Rover Range Rover vehicles that had 3.0 TDV6 or 4.4 TDV8 diesel engines and were manufactured from 2 April 2012 to 2 May 2013. In these vehicles, the engine may not start or may stop running without warning due to an incorrectly manufactured crank position sensor. If the latter occurred, the vehicle would lose power braking and steering assistance such that increased brake pedal and steering effort would be required to control the vehicle. If the vehicle had an air suspension system, the system may also reduce the vehicle to its lowest ride height position. As such, the cessation of the engine while driving posed an accident hazard to the driver and other road users. The recalled Land Rover Range Rover vehicles had VINs in the range SALGA2KE6EA000013 to SALGA2HF4DA124233 (PRA 2016/15505).

Land Rover L322 Range Rover Vogue: Takata airbag recall

In July 2018, a recall (campaign P081) was issued for Land Rover L322 Range Rover Vogue vehicles. Over time, high temperatures and moisture could cause the airbag inflator propellant to degrade. In the event of a collision, excessive internal pressure could cause the metal airbag inflator housing to rupture such that metallic fragments could be projected through the airbag and into the cabin – these fragments posed a serious risk of injury and fatality. For the VINs of the recalled vehicles, please see PRA 2018/16867.

Note that AustralianCar.Reviews does not offer advice on automotive problems or disputes; such enquiries will not receive a reply. For vehicles purchased from dealers after 1 January 2011, please see our Australian Consumer Law fact sheet.

L322 Range Rover: 2.9 Td6 turbocharger failure

For the 2.9 Td6 engine, there have been reports of the turbocharger failing. Turbocharger failure has been attributed to recirculated exhaust gases contaminating the engine oil such that it can no longer provide adequate lubrication of the turbocharger. When this occurs, the bearings in the turbocharger start to break, causing the compressor blades to spin off centre and loud whistling noises from the turbocharger. For prevention, regular oil changes and replacement of the crankcase breather filter are recommended.

L322 Range Rover 3.6L TDV8: turbocharger actuator arm corrosion

In May 2011, Land Rover issued Service Bulletin SSM49537 for Land Rover L322 Range Rover vehicles that had 3.6L TDV8 engines. In these vehicles, the turbocharger actuator arm pivot points could corrode and cause a full or partial seizure of the actuator arm mechanism. If this occurred, the vehicle may exhibit the following symptoms:

  • A loss of engine power;
  • llumination of the Check Engine Lamp (CEL); and,
  • Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) for turbocharger boost pressure faults.

To fix, Land Rover released actuator service kits so that the entire turbocharger did not have to be replaced.

L322 Range Rover: 4.2 Supercharged V8 and auxiliary coolant pump

For the 4.2 Supercharged V8 engine, the driver may experience reduced power and/or a misfire at high engine loads and road speeds. Furthermore, using a diagnostic scanner may obtain the Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) P0096 and/or P2601.

According to Land Rover Technical Bulletin LTB-000-41, the cause of this fault may be that the electrical harness power supply and ground for the auxiliary coolant pump are cross connected in connector C3006. As a result, the pump would run backwards and reduce pump flow – to prevent engine damage, the engine control module (ECM) would then reduce engine power.

To fix, the coolant pump would need to be replaced and the wiring at connector C3006 fixed.

2011-12 L322 Range Rover: 4.4 TDV8 and exhaust smoke

In January 2013, Land Rover issued technical bulletin LTB00513 for 2011-12 ‘model year’ Land Rover L322 Range Rover Vogue 4.4 TDV8 vehicles with VINs in the range BA334433-CA393639. In these vehicles, there may be excessive exhaust smoke and the ‘DPF Full Visit Dealer’ massage may appear in the instrument cluster message centre without any prior DPF warning messages. The service bulletin attributed this condition to an ‘ineffective oil drainage system’ such that a modified drain tube was to be fitted; the DPF was also to be regenerated.

2010-12 L322 Range Rover 5.0 Supercharged V8: rattle or click noise from engine – chain tensioners

In June 2014, Land Rover issued Technical Service Bulletin LTB00474NAS2 for 2010-12 model year Land Rover L322 Range Rover vehicles that had 5.0-litre supercharged V8 engines and serial numbers in the range AA306630 to CA393639. In these vehicles, a rattle or click noise may be heard from the front of the engine and this noise may be more pronounced when the engine is idling. According to the service bulletin, this noise could be caused by wear on the timing chain lever which reduced tension on the timing chain. To fix, the timing chain tensioner and timing chain tensioner lever were to be replaced.

L322 Range Rover: high rpm and/or shift problems

In August 2007, Land Rover issued technical bulletin LTB00080 for L322 Range Rover vehicles with serial numbers in the range 100042 to 175505. When driving for 25 minutes or longer, these vehicles may experience high engine speeds and/or transmission shift problems; the transmission overheat message may also be displayed on the instrument cluster. This condition could be caused by depletion of the coolant corrosion inhibitor resulting in partial blockage of the low flow circuits of the radiator (lower eight tubes that supply coolant to the transmission oil cooler). If the automatic transmission fluid exceeds a threshold value, a gear shift strategy will be adopted to cool the transmission by extending the shift points.To confirm partial blockage of the radiator, the coolant flow rate form the radiator drain plug was to be measured. If confirmed, the radiator was to be replaced.

While the transmissions are described as ‘sealed for life’ units, it is recommended that the transmission fluid be changed every four years or 80,000 kms.

L322 Range Rover: air suspension

  • The L322 Range Rover Vogue’s air suspension may not maintain the proper height if the battery voltage is low (i.e. below 11 volts). Replacing or charging the battery, followed by resetting the system by removing the negative (earth) battery cable may resolve the problem.
  • The Range Rover Vogue’s air suspension could also experience problems with the airbags, the pressure relief valve (inside the compressor) staying open, the pressure sensor failing and the compressors. For the latter, the compressors could wear out and not provide sufficient pressure or potentially short-circuit due to water in the spare wheel well.
  • Clunking noises from the rear suspension when driving over bumps are indicative of worn rear hub bushes.
  • Over time, the ball joints in the front and rear suspension are subject to wear.

L322 Range Rover: front driveshaft/differential failure

Since the front driveshaft of the L322 Range Rover does not have a flexible coupling at the front end, any misalignment puts severe stress on the front differential input splines. If the driver attempts to accelerate and the vehicle does not respond, a loud grinding noise may be the splines being damaged. If this occurs, the vehicle is undriveable. For more information about this problem, please see RangeRovers.net: Front Differential Failure.

L322 Range Rover: water in cabin

In August 2008, Land Rover issued technical bulletin LTB00168 for L322 Range Rover vehicles with serial numbers from 100003 onwards. In these vehicles, water ingress may occur:

  • Through the headliner in the proximity of the driver’s or the front passenger’s head, possibly dripping onto the top of the instrument panel;
  • Behind the A-pillar trim, through the fascia and, potentially, into the front footwell. By removing the fascia end closing panel, water ingress could be identified by rust coloured marks on the instrument panel reinforcement;
  • Through the headliner around the rear of the roof opening panel; and,
  • Into the rear footwell (driver or passenger’s side).

The water ingress was attributable to:

  • A poorly routed, blocked, kinked or twisted front roof opening panel drain tube; or,
  • If water ingress was only visible in the footwell area, around the sill finisher and along the bottom of the door casing, the likely cause was a badly fitted front door water shedder.

L322 Range Rover: heavy steering

In November 2005, Land Rover issued technical bulletin LM211-006 for post-2006 L322 Range Rover Vogue vehicles with VINs commencing at 6A198058. In these vehicles, abnormally high steering effort may be required during parking manoeuvres and diagnostic checks determine that the power steering control valve actuator in the steering gear is the cause. A service repair kit was developed so that the actuator could be replaced without needing to replace the entire steering gear assembly.

2007-10 model year L322 Range Rover: rear differential motor and DTC P186D

In March 2011, Land Rover issued Technical Bulletin LTB00228 (Issue 2) for 2007-10 model year L322 Range Rover vehicles that had serial numbers in the range 7A239036 to AA307231. In these vehicles, the Electronic Torque Managed (ETM) rear differential motor could be ‘energized’ while the motor brake was still partially engaged – this would cause mechanical wear of the motor assembly such that the actuator may stick and Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) P186D would be logged in the electronic rear differential control module.

Additional symptoms included:

  • Illumination of the transmission Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL);
  • DTCs P080A and P0806 may also be logged in the electronic rear differential control module;
  • The ‘Transmission Fault Stop Safely’ warning message may be displayed; and,
  • The Dynamic Suspension may lower.

To fix, the rear differential motor was to be replaced and new software was to be downloaded to the rear differential control module.

Land Rover L322 Range Rover Vogue: other problems and faults

  • A chirping noise from under the bonnet may be attributable to the plastic idler pulley for the serpentine accessory drive belt; an improved pulley was subsequently released.
  • A screeching noise from the engine bay may be due to a defective cooling fan.
  • The navigation system may stop working – potentially accompanied by the radio and Bluetooth – due to water entering the navigation unit.
