You work so well together, the attention to detail needed for an engine rebuild is so much easier with someone supporting you, rather than just helping. You make it look so easy, which it is not. A real credit to both of you, cannot wait to see the next episode.
I suppose you both realise that your channel is required viewing by all Landrover mechanics and technicians in order to pass their training course! Christian your engine rebuilds are better than what comes out of the Landrover factory brand new!
@@1960livvy I seem to remember that this 'Lion' engine was a joint effort between Ford, JLR AJD-V6 and Peugeot named DT17. The 2.7 first version was fitted to various Jag, LR, RR, Peugeot 607 and possibly other vehicles. Ford owned JLR at the time. Wiki says it was part of Ford Duratorq family. I also remember that BMW and Peugeot/Citroen did a joint diesel 1.6litre. Later Ford made another 'lion' engine based in a truck block and was the SDV8 4.4 litre diesel which had no common parts.
I don't think I could ever get tired of watching you reassemble the TDV6 engine. I learn something new every time. Your knowledge and collection of tools is incredible. Thanks for another very educational video.
Why am I so interested in this channel, I haven’t even got a LR and don’t even intend getting one after seeing all the issues😂 great work, you make a great team even dragging your son in for a helping hand!
I used to be relaxed driving my D4, but after watching your channel, I now drive in fear of catastrophic crank failure. Perhaps ignorance is bliss for someone who struggles to open the bonnet ;o)
They certainly don't all break cranks, though many have. There's a couple of D4's owners where I live, both get well used daily and have plenty of trouble free klms on them. Don't sweat, enjoy.
Christian / Vera , I spent my last work trip away out of UK watching the channel and was amazed at the content …. Within a week of being home in UK , i stopped dithering and bought a Discovery 4….! Had a Range Rover sport years ago but sold it , realised what i really had needed and should have bought was a Discovery 4….. Mine is Fuji White / black trim but loving it …. Will service it myself now , great to have something i can play with the dirty bits … within reason of course … thanks for pushing me over that edge!!
I am so happy you take the time to clean things before re-mounting them, I see too many RUclips mechanic videos where they mount dirty parts again. I always wonder what the probability is that some pieces of dirt will cause harm.
I used to hate Sundays as they marked the end of the weekend, but now I have something to look forward to. Thank you for your entertaining and informative videos. Your work is superb.
Brilliant video again and these aren't simple engines with all the components and the amount of special tools needed to install and check parts at every stage of the rebuild. The fun and jokes yous have between yourselves is lovely to see, a great couple together. I can see why these are expensive to work on and engineering an engine without a simple dipstick is a move that is asking for problems after a few years.
It's always good to watch the two of you working together. Your attention to detail is second to none .well done I think that engine will run like a sewing machine better then new
I’m glad Vera is there to keep an eye on things Christian, if it’s only for OMG interjections 😂, great video guys love these and the humour is so subtle marvellous content.
The mark of a great artist - and let's agree what Christian and Vera are doing is artistry - is to make it look easy and simple to the likes of a Luddite like me. The thought actually crossed my mind for just an instant that I could maybe do it! About the only thing I could actually do is utter Vera's immortal "OMG!" Keep on keeping on!
I don't know what your plans are with the car after repairs, but if you sell it , the buyer has a car with probably the best build engine ever , i think even in the factory is not so much attention to each detail...Nice to follow your channel , educational and funny in one deal ...keep up the good work ! Greetings from Belgium
Love this series with the new Discovery! Super satisfying to see the engine come back together with such care and attention. I'm looking for an engine rebuild project myself right now :)
The suspense! Will it start? Ofcourse it will! - Christian and Vera put it together..better than any Monday engine assembly and probably better than a Wednesday engine assembly.
I love these videos, but it makes me in even more awe of the RAF guys and factory techicnians who serviced and repaired the Napier Sabre 24 cylinder engine 😮
Congratulations on passing 40,000 subscribers! Watching your attention to detail in terms of torque settings and tolerances (and how bad the tolerances on some aftermarket parts), it is no wonder so many people have trouble with their engines after they rebuild them. So many things can be done incorrectly and it probably creates a cascade of failures down the road.
Wow I LOVE thunderstorms so much! Do you get many? A big bonus to the video! This was great to watch Christian reassembling the engine! Very satisfying indeed. You are both brilliant fun
Вы удивительные люди, Ваши видео потрясающие !!! Смотрю все на одном дыхании. У меня Дискавери 3, 2005 года, обслуживал только на сервисе. После Ваших видео стал самостоятельно менять фильтры и лампочки. Вы вдохновили меня развиваться в познании и обслуживании своего автомобиля. Дай бог Вам здоровья и удачи во всем !
OMG ! I have been pronouncing my Stahlwille tools as ‘Star-Willy’ 🙈……. The more I see the Ford V6 diesel, the more I think how great (reliable) would the car have been with a Mercedes V6 or BMW I6 diesel, so many Brit part suppliers, Chinese tool makers Etc would be out of work, and C&V would have only the gardening to do 🤔 😂
Brilliant once again, Christian and Vera, also a guest appearance from Robin. I am learning so much and the click click has been a revelation. LR time much better than Eurovision!
The amount of engendering behind a modern engine like this is mind-blowing.😯 For some reason I now want to build a "hot rod" with this engine but without forced induction...😳
Hi Christian and Vera. I am not a Land Rover owner Merc C220 2006, same as Christian's and 08 Merc Vito( plenty of work to do😅). I was hooked on your channel after stumbling upon your body removal video a few weeks back. I am working my way through all of your previous clips.I love your quotes, chemistry together and technical brilliance. Keep them coming.👏👌
I so so look forward to seeing your latest videos,, it is a must not miss video at the end of every week, I have said it before but your attention to detail is fantastic and your team work is so amazing and heartwarming to see, especially in today’s mad world. Stay safe and see you next week ❤
I am so glad I found this channel. I look forward to Sundays knowing that I will be laughing with you guys! I really do enjoy the content, and find it both interesting and informative. I don’t even have a Land Rover ( or any other 4x4).😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤
Today, I had a nice bowl of banana custard whilst enjoying your latest instalment. That engine will probably be the most carefully built and “in specification” unit to be fitted in a Land Rover.
Precision amazing attention to detail. Behind every good man there is a good woman with a camera and a wagging finger to supervise Fingers crossed next week we hear it start and run and prove the bath tub formula works
Ha sido un gran y meticuloso trabajo. He restaurado muchos motores como N47, N57, OM642, otros del grupo PSA. Todos los motores tienen cosas buenas y malas, pero lo importante es siempre disfrutar.
I am totally impressed by your work both of you are magnificent together man i wish i could find a coworker that makes such tedious work so much fun Thank you for your videos!
It is a really great feeling to bolt bits on rather than off. Looking forward to seeing next week and the body going back on👍😁my chassis painting is almost complete so I'll be installing my engine and all new suspension soon. Probably be about a month behind you 😂although snow is forecast for us in Scotland again so maybe a little longer😮
Yet another fantastic video from Christian & 'oh my god' Vera, i really enjoy watching these videos, they are so imformative what ever you drive, if you want me to throw that broken crankshaft at the factory in Solihull when i'm passing please let me know lol
ITS LR TIME😊😊😊 What a great build.only getting to view the latest video.i had to change the rear hatch actuator.i cant wait to hear the engine start.will this mall crawler be for vera?? Keep up the good work😊😊
I had to laugh when you mentioned "Sarah-n-Tuned". She's one of my favourites to watch. Small world. You two are funny and very entertaining even if I don't own a LR.
HI there, thank you very much for your Videos. I've got a question. Do these instructions also fit for Jaguar F-Pace with the gen2 306DT engine? Or are there some main differences?
I think this V6 will be better than the day it left the factory! Attention to detail all the way :-). Nice work!! On a side note, worth noting for those testing glow plugs, some more modern ones are only 5V 😄.
Good morning Vera & Christian 😊Another outstanding video on the LR engine 😊 No Dumb ass this week lol 😆 What at tease at the end seeing her crank over 😮 I have to say Christian your technical knowledge is outstanding but sorry Vera is the star 🌟 of the show keeping you in check 🤣 Love every single minute of your videos 👍🏻 Take care & see ya both next Sonntag 😊 for Vera ❤x

Well after cutting the video maybe 😬 Christian
If only this were true 😂
I thought this was a ford engine ?
@@1960livvy I seem to remember that this 'Lion' engine was a joint effort between Ford, JLR AJD-V6 and Peugeot named DT17. The 2.7 first version was fitted to various Jag, LR, RR, Peugeot 607 and possibly other vehicles. Ford owned JLR at the time. Wiki says it was part of Ford Duratorq family.

Later Ford made another 'lion' engine based in a truck block and was the SDV8 4.4 litre diesel which had no common parts.
I don’t believe a joint effort at all
I have been a mechanic for 40 years and you don’t get better than Christian, he would make a great mechanic trainer.
(Assembling engine) "Ready for the next engine failure". Christian's humour is priceless.
Hats off to you for torquing every single fastener. I certainly don't have the patience for that.
I don't think I could ever get tired of watching you reassemble the TDV6 engine. I learn something new every time. Your knowledge and collection of tools is incredible. Thanks for another very educational video.

At least you know how to fix it if it does 😂
You can relax - only 1 out of 100 LR4 cranks snap. If you win 10 million in the lottery, then you should start to worry. Christian

I am so happy you take the time to clean things before re-mounting them, I see too many RUclips mechanic videos where they mount dirty parts again. I always wonder what the probability is that some pieces of dirt will cause harm.
Loving this series, even as a mechanic myself. Not even sure why, maybe to see someone else suffer through things like this 😂
Stumbled across your channel today & have binged watched all the episodes on this Discovery, enjoyed every second, greetings from London!
I summarize all my words and say that I wish I were your neighbor ..Thank you for all your wonderful content
I used to hate Sundays as they marked the end of the weekend, but now I have something to look forward to. Thank you for your entertaining and informative videos. Your work is superb.

Great! - looking forward to next week now and the final install. 👍
Awesome work again on the mechanical side as well as the camera/video production. Wishing my life away as I wait for next Sunday.
Thank you again for giving me half an hour of enjoyable entertainment on a Sunday
Another absolutely brilliant video Christian & Vera. Fantastic progress with the rebuild and hilarious installments of German humour and comedy 👏
The mark of a great artist - and let's agree what Christian and Vera are doing is artistry - is to make it look easy and simple to the likes of a Luddite like me. The thought actually crossed my mind for just an instant that I could maybe do it!
About the only thing I could actually do is utter Vera's immortal "OMG!" Keep on keeping on!
Christian and Vera as usual fantastic blog and video ❤👊🇬🇧
Good job Christian and Vera, your attention to detail is inspiring. Makes me want to drop my VW and go to LR! Great video guys!
I don't know what your plans are with the car after repairs, but if you sell it , the buyer has a car with probably the best build engine ever , i think even in the factory is not so much attention to each detail...Nice to follow your channel , educational and funny in one deal ...keep up the good work !

Cristian certainly knows his stuff , fantastic!
we need the next part of the video, love you guys as a couple.... real power couple you are and love how much knowledge you guys have
Superb Workmanship, Well and Workwomanship 👊
The only couple that can strip and rebuild an engine and come out as clean as when they started 😂..brilliant x
Cut the video right at the critical point where it was turning over. Absolute torture! Brilliant video again guys as always well done.
I love these videos, but it makes me in even more awe of the RAF guys and factory techicnians who serviced and repaired the Napier Sabre 24 cylinder engine 😮

That is so great😀💪🙋♀️Vera
Good morning Vera and Christian. Really enjoying the videos on the Discovery 4 and looking forward to next weekend's clickety clicks. 👍
Fantastic video! Love your humor, cracks me up. Hopefully Steven didn’t have any other bad days on the assembly line.
The video diary of 'my' engine being built is therapy for me.
“I’m ageing…” - Christian 🤣🤣🤣
OMG ! I have been pronouncing my Stahlwille tools as ‘Star-Willy’ 🙈…….

Fantastic job well done great to watch on Sunday morning with a coffee 👏👍
Amazing Guys.. well done to you both... from the UK.
Here we can what German makes it great in history. This pure knowledge in person. Thx Christian
Christian&Vera,Fantastic job you done
Cant whait til next week!
Hvl.
The amount of engendering behind a modern engine like this is mind-blowing.😯
For some reason I now want to build a "hot rod" with this engine but without forced induction...😳
absolutely crazy how much stuff is on such an engine. Christian
Just superb. I love your work so much. Thank you Vera and Christian. Best wishes.
Wow! Another excellent video from you both. I can't wait for the next one. See you next Sunday.

I wished I had your skills and knowledge. Well done both of you, yet again.
Well done you two...I'm stressad just sitting here watching your progress...and now I have to another week with my fingers crossed🫰😬

That engine will probably be the most carefully built and “in specification” unit to be fitted in a Land Rover.
Congratulations for the commitment you guys show proof. You deserve all the credit for the work you have done. Regards Dorin.
German engineering at its humorous best! 🦘🙏🦘
Lol Vera you will give this man grey hair…great video, love the attention to detail and doing things correctly.
Precision amazing attention to detail.
Behind every good man there is a good woman with a camera and a wagging finger to supervise
Fingers crossed next week we hear it start and run and prove the bath tub formula works
Superb. A cliff hanger ending❤

Another good engineering lesson for us lesser mortals Thank you guys
Thanks for another great video looking forward to next Sunday 👍 Mike
One small step for man, big step/evidence for Toyota! I love your videos ! And I will never ever buy an LR. Thank's !
I am totally impressed by your work both of you are magnificent together man i wish i could find a coworker that makes such tedious work so much fun Thank you for your videos!
I've enjoyed every video, found your channel from the start of this project :) Love every new video that comes out, can't wait for the next one!
Absolutely envious of your skill, thank you for sharing.
Would love to see you rebuild a Toyota 1HD FTE motor😊
fantastic work you've done! love your videos so much.
It is a really great feeling to bolt bits on rather than off. Looking forward to seeing next week and the body going back on👍😁my chassis painting is almost complete so I'll be installing my engine and all new suspension soon. Probably be about a month behind you 😂although snow is forecast for us in Scotland again so maybe a little longer😮
I am sure you will get it perfect 👍 Christian
@@Vera_and_Christian well as perfect as I can get it anyway 🤣👍
Fascinating video and very well edited. Enjoy the humour very much.

Another wonderful video, I love watching you both you are so well suited….
Love watching you guys play 👍
Wow, when I started watching 9 months ago you were at around 24K subscribers I think. You are getting towards double that now, good job!
Well done - looking forward to the next video
Omg what a cliffhanger! Love the video can’t wait for next Sunday!
My favourite time on Sunday watching the best RUclips channel 👍
Awesome work guys!! Cannot wait to see this installed and running!! :-)
My favourite Sunday morning viewing ❤
Hi Christian and Vera, good job 👌
HI there,
thank you very much for your Videos. I've got a question. Do these instructions also fit for Jaguar F-Pace with the gen2 306DT engine? Or are there some main differences?
Amazing guys, respect. I've been building engines for quarter of a century and it doesn't get old. Is this one going to be for Robin, or for sale?
Ooooohh.... I'm so excited to see this installed and fired!!! 😁
I just caught the “cleaning like Sarah-n-tuned” comment, did make me laugh!
Great work on the rebuild.
Thanks guys - another great video!
I thought i would stop and watch over my coffee break ……😮
It was the end before i knew it!
I admire your attention to detail, fantastic work on a terrible product. I've been a Toyota man all my life
The Stahwille Stabil 20 and Motor 10 are some of my favourite spanners (wrenches in the USA)
Lying in bed in rainy blighty with a cuppa and this on the telly 👌🤙
Well done guys, excellent video
Did you upgrade the crank for better oil flow?
I think this V6 will be better than the day it left the factory! Attention to detail all the way :-). Nice work!! On a side note, worth noting for those testing glow plugs, some more modern ones are only 5V 😄.
Great video, may I know where to find the newton meter for each bolts?
Amazing content as usual, it's almost a step by step guide 😊 something for the patreons maybe. ❤
Good morning Vera & Christian 😊Another outstanding video on the LR engine 😊 No Dumb ass this week lol 😆 What at tease at the end seeing her crank over 😮 I have to say Christian your technical knowledge is outstanding but sorry Vera is the star 🌟 of the show keeping you in check 🤣 Love every single minute of your videos 👍🏻 Take care & see ya both next Sonntag 😊 for Vera ❤x
