Range Rover engines are engineered for effortless torque, and they reward owners who service them properly. When something does go wrong, it rarely announces itself politely: a ticking on cold start, a coolant level that keeps dropping, a misfire that only appears under load. Our engine bay begins with evidence, not guesswork, running compression, leak-down and live data tests before a single bolt is touched.
We rebuild the 3.0 TDV6 and SDV6, the 5.0 supercharged V8, the 2.0 Ingenium petrol and diesel, and the older 4.4 TDV8 in-house. Timing chain stretch on the V6 diesel, crankshaft concerns on early 3.0 units, and stretch-bolt head sealing on the V8 are jobs we complete every week, using genuine or OE-equivalent components and factory torque procedures.

How we work
Every job begins with a proper diagnosis on the lift and on Land Rover's diagnostic platform. You receive a written report, photos and a fixed price on WhatsApp before any work begins. Genuine or OE-equivalent parts are used, every repair carries a written warranty, and the vehicle is road tested before handover.
Frequently asked questions
Is it worth rebuilding a Range Rover engine rather than replacing it?
In most cases yes. A rebuild lets us renew only the worn components while keeping the original block and matched ancillaries, and it usually costs considerably less than a new or reconditioned long block. We will always show you the measurements and let you decide.
How long does an engine rebuild take?
A timing chain job is typically two to three days. A full rebuild with machining is usually seven to ten working days, depending on parts availability and the machining required.
Do you offer a warranty on engine work?
Yes. All engine repairs carry a parts and labour warranty, with the exact term confirmed in writing on your invoice before work starts.
