Land Rover Range Rover Sport motor clicks when idling on Land Rover Range Rover Sport

Problem overview

Some Land Rover Range Rover Sport owners report experiencing a clicking or ticking sound while idling, which may indicate underlying problems, particularly in models with a Ford 5.0 engine around the 50,000 to 60,000-mile mark. This noise can become more pronounced during sharp or normal turns and at slow speeds, and some owners also report a vibrating sensation accompanying the sound, especially at idle. Additionally, issues like rough idle may arise from factors such as vacuum leaks and spark plugs. If the clicking persists even after part replacements, owners may find it difficult to get the manufacturer to address the issue. It is recommended that affected owners have their vehicle inspected by a qualified mechanic to diagnose and resolve any underlying issues to prevent further damage.
