Timing chain and oil dilution (2.0 Ingenium diesel)
Severity 3/3 · SeriousSeveral specialist workshops describe wear of the timing chain on 2.0 Ingenium diesels (D180, D240), linked to oil diluted by diesel during interrupted particulate filter regenerations, especially on short journeys. The first sign: a rattle on cold start. If left unaddressed, the chain can jump or break and cause engine failure. The years 2017-2018 are the most cited. These sources are workshops and forums, not Jaguar Land Rover.
