Hi Katie,
If the engine light is on then a fault code will be logged in the engine computer.
The land rover needs a specific reader and not all generic ones work.
Is it blowing smoke at all?? If so what colour?
If so it could be a burst or split turbo hose.
If not you really need someone nearby to read codes with a suitable reader.
Maybe post your general location and see if any members want to help ?

Its customary to say 'hello' and introduce yourself in the forum in your first posts. Understandably, you might not get received with compassion and understanding if you just launch in with random demands and no useful information about your vehicle. Maybe Start over?

Another common fault is dirty connections on the fuel rail pressure sensor.
This is on the end of the fuel rail near the battery.
Press the clip, un plug, clean the pins amd plug in again.

Obviously gender humour only works 1 way.
Thank you, it only blows smoke at start up (white). I’ll take it to a garage and see if they can read it for me. Thanks for your polite answer.
I don’t scare that easily and childish little boys have never got their own way. Grab your popcorn and sit back.

Good idea. Come back with fault codes and we've probably seen them before.
If you were local to North Devon I'd do it for you.
Hi, I’m in Cambridgeshire/hertfordshire. Yes friend just used a small reader, so I’ll have to take it to a garage and see if they can plug it in. Thank you for your response.
