OUR EXPERIENCE WITH LAND ROVER VEHICLES
​
Westco Automotive has become a trusted destination for Land Rover owners who refuse to let dealer service costs keep them from enjoying their vehicles. Our technicians have mastered the complexities of Land Rover's air suspension systems, terrain response electronics, and the infamous 5.0L V8 timing chain issues. We've performed countless repairs on Range Rovers, Discoverys, and LR3s that other shops deemed too complex. From diagnosing suspension fault lights to keeping classic Defenders running, we understand that Land Rover ownership requires patience, expertise, and a shop that won't give up when things get complicated.

-
Air suspension compressor and strut replacement
-
Timing chain tensioner and guide replacement (5.0L V8)

Interesting Information
Land Rover's Terrain Response system, introduced in 2004, was revolutionary—it allowed drivers to select different off-road modes (grass/gravel/snow, mud/ruts, sand, rock crawl) that automatically adjusted throttle response, traction control, and suspension settings for optimal performance.
