At Meta Mechanics, we recently addressed a serious issue where a Range Rover Sport’s engine stopped while driving in Dubai. After a detailed inspection, our expert technicians identified several critical problems affecting the vehicle’s engine performance. Here are the key issues we found and the solutions we implemented to restore the vehicle’s functionality:
Issue Found:
- Faulty Fuel Pump
- Issue: The fuel pump was malfunctioning, causing inconsistent fuel delivery to the engine, leading to engine stalling while driving.
- Solution: We replaced the faulty fuel pump with a high-performance replacement, ensuring consistent fuel pressure and reliable fuel delivery to the engine for smooth operation.
- Clogged Fuel Filter
- Issue: The fuel filter was clogged, restricting fuel flow and causing the engine to starve for fuel, resulting in the engine stopping unexpectedly.
- Solution: We replaced the clogged fuel filter with a new one, ensuring proper fuel flow and preventing future fuel delivery issues that could lead to engine stoppage.
- Malfunctioning Crankshaft Position Sensor
- Issue: The crankshaft position sensor was faulty, leading to the engine control unit (ECU) receiving incorrect timing signals, which caused the engine to stop.
- Solution: We replaced the malfunctioning crankshaft position sensor, restoring accurate timing information to the ECU and ensuring proper engine synchronization.
- Electrical Wiring Issues
- Issue: Damaged or loose electrical wiring was causing intermittent power loss to critical engine components, resulting in engine shutdown while driving.
- Solution: We inspected and repaired the wiring, ensuring all electrical connections were secure and fully operational, eliminating the risk of power loss during driving.
- Overheating Due to Radiator Malfunction
- Issue: A malfunctioning radiator caused the engine to overheat, triggering a safety shutdown to prevent damage to internal components.
- Solution: We replaced the damaged radiator and flushed the cooling system to restore proper engine temperature regulation, preventing future overheating and engine shutdowns.
