?? Early Puma service action Rear A bar ???
Has anyone heard of problem with the welding of the base or support of the rear A bar. The problem would be related to LR Defender 90, 110 and 130 with VIN numbers between LD736064 and LD752152,

Question asked by Santiago on another forum,, California F1, 75th 110 "Kermit", 50th Ann V8, 90 V8 Hybrid, 55 Series 1

I'm sure I saw a notice about this somewhere when I was looking into buying my Puma. I think it was to do with the very early units.

Hi everyone!

I heard that also,

Appeared in the spanish and Latam forums at the begining of the year.
According to GTR they issued a service action comming in 2 flavours Q036 UK and Q036 EX.
The modification should be done at the first possible service.

Main problem was a change in specification were the A frame were welded instead bolted.
Its is not a recall but looks like.

In order to see if you have the problem, you must to inspect the A bar to see if its welded or bolted

Only 2007MY are involved. The Service Action was issued on February 2008 and stated that the problem were already solved at this date. The problem involved VIN LD736064 to LD752152 if you like to check.
