Service bulletins for the 2012 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque

A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned.

"DESCRIPTION A DESIGN ISSUE HAS BEEN IDENTIFIED ON 2012-2013 MODEL YEAR RANGE ROVER EVOQUE VEHICLES WITHIN THE LISTED VIN RANGE. WHILE DRIVING IN WET WEATHER CONDITIONS, CONDENSATION MAY BUILD UP WITHIN THE ENGINE CHARGE AIR RADIATOR. FOLLOWING A RAPID INCREASE IN ENGINE SPEED, THIS CONDENSATION COULD BE DRAWN IN TO ONE OF THE ENGINE’S CYLINDERS, CAUSING THE ENGINE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM TO SENSE A MISFIRE. THE ENGINE IS PROGRAMMED TO REACT TO THIS MISFIRE BY INITIATING A RESTRICTED PERFORMANCE MODE TO PROTECT THE EXHAUST CATALYST. IN THIS MODE, THE DRIVER NOTICEABLY EXPERIENCES REDUCED POWER TO ACCELERATE UNTIL THE ENGINE IS SWITCHED OFF AND THEN RESTARTED. FURTHERMORE, AN ENGINE WARNING MESSAGE WILL DISPLAY IN THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER MESSAGE CENTER AND THE ENGINE MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LAMP MAY ILLUMINATE. NEW COMPONENTS HAVE BEEN DESIGNED TO LIMIT CONDENSATION FROM BUILDING IN THE ENGINE’S CHARGE AIR RADIATOR TO PREVENT THE RESTRICTED PERFORMANCE MODE FROM INITIATING. ADDITIONALLY, UPDATED ENGINE CONTROL MODULE (ECM) SOFTWARE HAS BEEN DEVELOPED WHICH CHANGES THE THRESHOLDS NECESSARY TO INITIATE THE RESTRICTED PERFORMANCE MODE FOR THIS ISSUE."

SSM725842017-04-11. Service bulletin. ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM; ENGINE; ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:SOFTWARE; POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION:CONTROL MODULE (TCM/PCM/TECM). ISSUE: CUSTOMER HAS OBSERVED 'CHECK ENGINE LIGHT' - ALSO KNOWN AS 'ENGINE MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LAMP (MIL)' - ILLUMINATED IN THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER & DTC P2096-00 AND/OR P2097-00 IS EVIDENT IN THE PCM. A CONCERN IN THE PCM DIAGNOSTIC SOFTWARE HAS BEEN DISCOVERED, WHICH WHEN COMBINED WITH A SPECIFIC CUSTOMER DRIVE CYCLE CAN LEAD TO THE FALSE FLAGGING OF THIS DTC. EXHAUST SYSTEM LEAKS OUTSIDE DESIGN SPECIFICATION CAN INCREASE THE LIKELIHOOD OF REPEAT FAILURES. (JLR HAVE RECOGNISED THAT THE SUPPLIED LEAK CHECK EQUIPMENT DOES NOT FIT ON CERTAIN LC - DISCOVERY SPORT EXHAUST TAIL PIPES. A SOLUTION IS BEING SOURCED).
