Please post in this format. If you have more than one issue, then do it for every instance but in the same post please.


I will start this off:

Model: 2005
Miles on S/C at Discovery: 30K
Prob: Cracked supercharger compressor mounting bracket.
Cause: Attributed by TRD to be improper torque sequence by installer.
Repair: Newly designed bracket.
Warranty: Not for me, had way too many problems with the dealer install to
let them touch my baby again.
Model: 2005
Miles on S/C at Discovery: 21K
Prob: Corrosion, Idler Pulley mounting bolts.
Cause: Lack of thread sealant. Found on other bolts.
Repair: Remove corrosion and have bolts re-electroplated. Use thread sealer.
Note: Close tolerance with pulley bushing may make chrome plating unfeasible.
Warranty: Not considered warrantied by Dealer or TRD.

Model 2005:
Miles on S/C at Discovery: 21K
Prob: Excessive bearing wearing, Idler Pulleys
Cause: Low speed rated bearings.
Repair: Replace with new Idler Pulleys.
Warranty: Not considered warrantied by Dealer or TRD. (this may have
changed)
