at 135000 km the timing chain broke and i replaced it and then the turbo went and clutch only to find out there was a loss of compression

Appart from the clutch, that could be all the same actual chain (no pun intended of course!) of events... the broken timing chain ending up damaging the valves and pistons, with bits of metal reaching and killing the turbo...? “A Land Rover immobilized is a moral defeat for the driver and bad publicity for the vehicle, […] it's up to you to do justice to your Land Rover!” - Land Rover Driving Technique.

yep - well done. there's always the added satisfaction of doing something yourself (well if it works that is)

Hi,

I’ve got the same issue.
With 217.000kms...

Can I ask where did you purchase your new engine?

Thanks.
