So, I found out the following... took it to a local shop that specialized in LR's.
This was on the email. "Your vehicle has jumped time. We went out to the parking lot and attempted to crank the vehicle and it would not start. It is very noisy while cranking and through the oil fill cap, you can see the Bank 2 Timing Chain. There is an extreme amount of slack in the chain, coupled with fault codes for misfires on that bank, and camshaft timing error on that bank. All signs point to the fact that this motor has jumped time and will need timing chain replacement." All in, $4100.00 and about 5 days. I guess they have to take the entire front end off, and replace a ton of other things while they're in there. They also said my engine has the "older" LR parts that were replaced in late 2015. I'm getting new/upgraded parts - so I guess that's a bonus... Uggg.
