L322 3.6 TDV8 - New engine at 70000 miles

[tighbag]

Help! I was after some advice, my L322 3.6TDV8 broke down about 3 weeks ago, running on only 6 cylinders and heaving out white smoke. Recovered and diagnosed with 2 injectors failed. On changing the injectors the garage found debris in the ports and to cut a long story short after boroscoping all cylinders No 3 piston is all but destroyed and there is scoring on nos 6/7. Diagnosis is a new engine (oh and its only got 70000 miles on the clock, bought from dealer, fully serviced, never towed!). Can I ask the asembled experts a few questions please?
- Realistically can the curent engine be recovered/re-conditioned?
- Any advice on reputable suppliers of re-conditioned engines or companies to re-condition?
- Land Rover Customer service are saying they can't do anything unless I get it recovered to a dealer (currently with a specialist 4x4 garage) but can't guarentee I won't get left with a dealer bill for invest! Anyone had any experience with LR Customer Service?
Thanks in anticipation!
