I have cleaned the header tank out and run the car a few times and so far there is no oil, however I am afraid to drive the car in case I do any damage. Don’t know what to doAliens?
Nope, sorry...haven't a clue. Someone sensible will be along shortly.
If you suck the black oil out off the top of the tank (use turkey baster or a bit of tubing) does the oil come back within a few days/miles?
Hold on then, someone with knowledge of the TDV8 will be along soon enough, with some sage advice.
Thanks Dan, Just hope I haven’t bought a bad one as only had it for 4 days
I know just how you feel. I had my OLD P38 for 1 week when things went very horribly wrong. I made the
Trouble is I purchased the car privately so no warranty. The other problem is buying the car has left me a bit short especially with no work at the moment. I am concerned that it may be the head gaskets from what I am seeing on the internet

Any chance of knowing which Range Rover you have? I don't think the Sport, did a Vogue trim, but the Sport is more @gstuart 's field.
Sorry, I didn’t mean to offend anybody, I appreciate that I am a new member so I am not used to this type of site. My car is a Range Rover Vogue TDV8 on an 09 plate. Please understand that I am just desperate to find out what the problem is. Again please accept my apologies for coming across rudeWelcome.

No worries. All is good. Well almost

I see you've managed to find the Range Rover section. Just hang around in there for a bit, do some searches for your issue. You can narrow down the search terms , if you use the drop down boxes. Someone will come along with possible solutions. As already advised diagnostics is a good idea.
Many thanks BrianHello and welcome
