Thanks to @PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod and @CPsGarage for some quite helpful tips for this teardown.
Here's weekly dose of your catastrophic engine forensics! Every week you can find a new teardown of some abused, misused and/or poorly designed engine. I've got over 160 videos of failed engine teardowns on this channel.
Today's teardown is a 3.0L Turbodiesel V6 from a 2017 Range Rover Sport. This is the Jaguar-Land Rover TDV6 that has been found in many Jaguar and Land Rover vehicles for the past decade. This engine puts out 253hp and 440ft lbs of torque. For the 2018 model year, Ford adapted the basic engine, redressed it and offered it as an optional power plant for the F150 through 2021. There are some differences between the JLR 3.0 Diesel and the 3.0 Powerstroke but its almost exclusively external components with few exceptions.
This engine seems to be a returned as defective engine from another salvage yard judging by the paint, heat tabs and stock numbers written on it. It was CLEARLY bad, but how did this fail?
Why am I doing this? My name is Eric and I own and run a full service auto salvage business in the Saint Louis area called Importapart. Part of our model includes dismantling core and blown engines to salvage and resell the good components. We do not rebuild engines, but merely supply parts to people who do!
I really hope you enjoyed this teardown and as always, I love all of the comments, feedback and even the criticism!
Catch you on the next one!
-Eric
