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.
Engine Repair & Rebuild on the Range Rover (Vogue)
The flagship Range Rover is the reason our workshop exists. From the L322 with its BMW-derived electronics to the aluminium L405 and the current L460, we have serviced and repaired every generation of the full-size Range Rover.
Engines we cover on this model: 3.0 TDV6/SDV6, 4.4 TDV8/SDV8, 5.0 V8 Supercharged, 3.0 Ingenium, P400e PHEV. Production 2002 – present (L322, L405, L460). Faults we see most often on the Range Rover (Vogue) include air suspension compressor and strut leaks, timing chain wear on 3.0 v6 diesel and 5.0 v8, coolant crossover pipe leaks on the v8, and each is diagnosed with the model-specific procedure before any parts are recommended.

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.
