Range Rover Sport (LS) VIN: 6A900129 and up



CONDITION SUMMARY:



WATER INGRESS THROUGH A-PILLAR EXTERIOR TRIM ATTACHMENT HOLES



Situation:



A customer may report water in the foot well of the vehicle. Water ingress through the lower slot in the A-pillar structure, where the exterior trim



lower location peg slots into the body, may be the cause. The customer may also report unexplained illumination of the oil pressure warning lamp.

Follow the Repair Procedure in this bulletin to remove the lower location pegs from the A-pillar exterior trim, cover the lower pin attachment slots in



the A-pillar and install the trim using new clips in the special hardware kit available for the repair.

4. Remove and discard the foam washer from the bottom peg. (Figures 2)



NOTE:



The lower peg must be cut flush with the surface of the trim piece to ensure no protrusion will interfere with the A-pillar bodywork or the



newly installed seal.



5. Cut the lower location peg from the A-pillar trim. (Figure 3)



CAUTION:



The area to which the adhesive patch is applied must be clean and dry before patch installation. The patch must completely adhere to the



body surface to ensure a proper seal.
