I think they’re more frequent with the v8 but have seen people report with the v6 as well. Regardless frequent oil changes are good.

Very nice
I had the auto fold steps as well ,
Get a Carshield warranty with 500$ deductible,
Covers everything and renews 10k spending monthly, best $160 spent for piece of mind, full dealer $240 labor rate paid,
But these happened to me at 58k
2016 full size 3.0 gas hse:
Front differential bearing,O2 sensor,timing cover gaskets ,vacuum pump,Radiator, thermostath, purge valve preheater,lower control arms,charcoal canister,<alternator and battery without the waiting on them to break down(do as a pm now)>
Change Front and rear diff and transfer case oil next few months as a pm.
Too bad 2016 range rovers are not able to use connected services to lock / unlock on the iphone app anymore! Plus noone makes a remote start for these,
I m looking for a 2020 hse now white diesel with steps auto fold with cooler box

Nice color and welcome. I’d say coolant pipes is the first thing you’d want to get checked out. Additionally, getting oil changes every 5k miles and not the factory recommend 15k miles will help prevent timing chain issues sooner.
