hi i paid the £60 to have a diagnostic check with a land rover specilist, he thinks its a cracked flexy plate and he woul charge about £1000.00 to replace it. May have to replace torque converter too. Anyone got a flexyplate for a gems 4.6 and a torque converter, Hase any one had any experience of thi problem ?
