What to check on a L460 Range Rover
3 model-specific things to look at when you view one. They're a starting point, not the full inspection.
Security software and theft protection
What to look for: Ask a Land Rover dealer to confirm the 2024 theft-risk software updates have been applied, and ask the seller what extra security the car has, such as a steering lock or tracker.
Why it matters: Thieves have targeted these cars through the CAN bus to disable the alarm and immobiliser, and Land Rover issued software updates in March 2024 to reduce the risk. A car with the updates done and extra security is easier to insure and keep.
Oil leaks on six-cylinder engines
What to look for: Look around the engine bay and underneath for oil leaks, and ask a dealer to check the oil filter housing and cam carrier recalls against the VIN.
Why it matters: A recall covered 2023 model year six-cylinder petrols whose cam carrier oil passage might not be fully drilled, and another covered six-cylinder petrol and diesel cars with an oil filter housing made from the wrong plastic, which could crack and leak. Most cars have had the work done.
Electrics and infotainment
What to look for: Spend time with the touchscreen and check it doesn't black out or flicker. Test keyless approach locking and unlocking, the ambient lighting, the massage seats and soft-close doors, and the electric parcel shelf.
Why it matters: Infotainment blackouts, approach locking faults, ambient lighting colours that don't work, stuck massage seat cells and failed soft-close functions have all been reported. Most are software or minor fixes, but it's worth knowing what works before you buy.
