Range Rover Sport L320 Reconditioned Short Engine

Reconditioned Short Engine for the Range Rover Sport L320: a reconditioned short engine for your garage to build up with your ancillaries.

The 2.7 and 3.0 V6 diesels in the Discovery 3 and 4, the Sport and the later L322 can spin a bearing and break the crankshaft, which is an engine out job and the single largest bill these vehicles produce. The early signs are low oil pressure warnings, a knock at idle and metal in the oil. These packages rebuild the engine properly with the revised parts, rather than dropping in a used engine with the same history. The Sport L320 sits on the Discovery 3 and 4 frame with the same air suspension, the same transfer box and the same diesel engines.

Fitting

Labour guide: about 22 hours. Land Rover changes specification mid production, often by VIN rather than by model year, so send the VIN or the registration with the order and we confirm the part against the build data before anything leaves. It takes two minutes and it is the difference between a part that fits and a return. We are an independent Land Rover specialist and parts supplier. We are not Land Rover or Jaguar Land Rover and are not appointed by them; the model names are their trademarks and are used here to describe fitment. Everything we sell is chosen for vehicles that actually get used: towed with, loaded, driven through water and parked in fields, rather than for the brochure. We do not sell particulate filter deletes, EGR blanking plates, AdBlue emulators or emissions defeat software. They are illegal on a road vehicle in the UK, an MOT failure and they void insurance.

Which version to buy

Remanufactured is stripped to the casting, measured, rebuilt with new bearings seals and wear parts and rig tested, with a surcharge refunded on your old unit. There is one specification of this, because it is the one we would fit to our own vehicles and a cheaper version would not be doing you a favour.
