Lubrication

Average Service Interval

5,000 miles or 6–12 months

Service Descriptions

Comprehensive Land Rover oil & filter change using OEM-approved synthetic oil and filter, performed to factory torque and fill specifications to ensure proper lubrication and long-term engine protection.

Land Rover engines (e.g. turbocharged 4-cyl, inline-6, or supercharged V8) generate high heat and pressure that break down oil quickly. Regular oil service is critical to prevent timing chain wear, turbo failure, and carbon buildup. Our service begins with a pre-inspection of the oil pan, drain plug, and filter housing for leaks. We then drain the old oil, remove and replace the OEM spin-on or cartridge filter, and clean the housing to ensure a proper seal. Fresh oil meeting JLR STJLR.51.5122 spec is filled to the exact capacity and viscosity grade for your model. Drain plug and filter housing are torqued to specification, and the engine is run through warm-up cycles before rechecking for leaks. We reset the service reminder with Land Rover diagnostic tools, verify oil pressure and temperature stability, and road test under different conditions to confirm smooth performance. This service maintains lubrication, cooling, and contaminant control in high-stress Land Rover engines.

System

Brakes

Component

Brake Fluid

Average Service Interval

20,000 miles or 24 months

Service Descriptions

Comprehensive Land Rover brake fluid flush using JLR-approved DOT 4 or DOT 4 LV fluid. We exchange old fluid from the master cylinder, ABS/ESC hydraulic unit, and calipers, then bleed to a firm pedal. This restores boiling point, protects ABS valves, and maintains consistent braking on-road and off-road.

Brake fluid in Land Rover vehicles absorbs moisture over time, lowering its boiling point and risking vapor lock, brake fade, and internal corrosion. This is especially critical in SUVs subjected to towing, off-road use, or heavy traffic. Our service uses a pressure-assisted exchange through the reservoir, ABS unit, and caliper bleeders to remove degraded fluid. We then bleed each wheel in the factory sequence, cycle the ABS/ESC unit with diagnostic tools, and verify pedal firmness. We also inspect hoses, fittings, and calipers for leaks. This service restores reliable brake feel, protects hydraulic components, and ensures confidence in all driving conditions.

Air Intake

Average Service Interval

15,000–20,000 miles or 12–24 months

Service Descriptions

Land Rover engine air filter replacement restores clean airflow and protects turbochargers and cylinders by removing dust, sand, and debris from the intake system.

Land Rover engines operate in a wide range of conditions, from highways to off-road environments where dust and debris are common. The engine air filter protects the intake system, turbochargers, and cylinders by trapping contaminants before they enter the combustion chamber. Over time, filters clog and restrict airflow, reducing performance, fuel efficiency, and potentially causing engine wear. During this service, we remove the old filter, inspect the airbox and intake ducts for debris or leaks, and install a new Land Rover-approved filter. For V6, I6, and V8 engines with dual filter setups, both elements are replaced together. This service restores horsepower, throttle response, and long-term engine health.

System

HVAC

Component

Cabin Air Filter

Average Service Interval

15,000–20,000 miles or 12–24 months

Service Descriptions

Land Rover cabin air filter replacement restores fresh airflow and protects passengers by trapping dust, pollen, and pollutants before they enter the interior.

The cabin air filter in your Land Rover ensures clean, filtered air reaches the interior while protecting HVAC components from dust and debris. Over time, the filter becomes clogged with contaminants, reducing airflow, straining the blower motor, and allowing odors to develop. During this service, we remove the old filter, inspect the housing for debris or moisture, and install a new OEM Land Rover-approved filter. For models with advanced filtration, we install activated carbon or HEPA cabin filters as equipped. This service restores HVAC efficiency, improves air quality, and protects both passengers and climate-control components.

System

Transmission

Component

Fluid & Filter

Average Service Interval

60,000 miles or 72 months

Land Rover transmission fluid & filter service replaces aged fluid and filter/pan assembly with OEM-approved parts to restore smooth shifting, protect clutches, and extend gearbox life.

Land Rover vehicles equipped with ZF 8-speed automatics rely on transmission fluid to lubricate gears, clutches, and hydraulic components. Over time, the fluid degrades due to heat and load, and the filter becomes restricted with clutch material. This can lead to harsh shifts, slipping, or premature wear. During this service, we drain and replace the transmission fluid, install a new OEM filter/pan assembly, replace the sealing sleeve, and torque all fasteners to specification. Fluid level is set using factory procedure, and adaptations are reset with Land Rover diagnostic tools. Finally, we road test to confirm smooth gear changes. This preventive maintenance helps avoid costly transmission repairs and ensures continued drivability.

System

Drivetrain

Component

Rear Differential

Average Service Interval

30,000–60,000 miles or 36–60 months

Service Descriptions

Land Rover rear differential fluid service replaces aged fluid with OEM-approved gear oil to protect gears, bearings, and clutches, ensuring smooth operation and longevity under heavy loads and off-road use.

The rear differential in your Land Rover transfers power to the rear wheels under a wide range of driving conditions, from highway cruising to off-road climbing. Over time, differential fluid degrades due to heat, moisture, and shear, losing its protective properties. This can result in gear wear, bearing noise, or clutch chatter in active locking differentials. During this service, we drain the old fluid, inspect the housing and seals, and refill with Land Rover-approved gear oil or locking differential fluid. Fasteners are torqued to specification, fluid level is confirmed, and a road test verifies quiet, smooth operation. This service restores lubrication, prevents overheating, and extends differential life.

System

Front Differential

Average Service Interval

30,000–60,000 miles or 36–60 months

Service Descriptions

Land Rover front differential fluid service restores lubrication and protects gears and bearings by replacing aged fluid with OEM-approved gear oil.

The front differential in your Land Rover plays a critical role in AWD and off-road performance by distributing power to the front wheels. Under heavy load, towing, or off-road driving, the fluid is subjected to extreme heat and contamination. Over time, the lubricant degrades and loses its protective qualities, leading to noise, vibration, or premature wear. During this service, we drain the old fluid, inspect the differential housing and seals for leaks, and refill with Land Rover-approved gear oil. Fasteners are torqued to specification, fluid level is verified, and the vehicle is road tested to ensure smooth and quiet operation. This preventive service helps extend driveline life and ensures consistent AWD performance.

Transfer Case

Average Service Interval

30,000–60,000 miles or 36–60 months

Service Descriptions

Land Rover transfer case fluid service restores smooth AWD operation by replacing degraded fluid with OEM-approved transfer case lubricant.

The transfer case in your Land Rover distributes torque between the front and rear axles, allowing precise AWD performance both on-road and off-road. Its fluid lubricates gears, chains, bearings, and clutches under extreme load and heat. Over time, the fluid breaks down, reducing protection and risking chatter, noise, or binding. During this service, we drain the old fluid, inspect the housing and seals for leaks, and refill with Land Rover-approved transfer case fluid. We torque all fasteners to specification, confirm correct fluid level, and road test to verify smooth torque transfer. This service prevents overheating, reduces wear, and maintains long-term drivetrain reliability.

System

Cooling

Component

Coolant

Average Service Interval

50,000 miles or 60 months

Service Descriptions

Land Rover coolant service replaces aged coolant with OEM-approved G12++/G13 fluid to maintain corrosion protection, stable engine temperature, and long-term reliability.

Land Rover engines run at high operating temperatures, making fresh coolant critical for stable performance and longevity. Although listed as “lifetime,” coolant degrades over time from heat cycles and contamination, lowering its freeze/boil protection and ability to prevent corrosion. During this service, we drain the old coolant, flush if needed, and refill with Land Rover-approved G12++/G13 coolant using vacuum-fill or factory bleeding to eliminate air pockets. Our technicians also inspect the radiator, hoses, clamps, thermostat, and water pump for leaks or wear. Finally, we test freeze/boil protection and document findings. This service prevents overheating, protects aluminum components, and maintains efficiency in turbocharged and supercharged Land Rover engines.

System

HVAC

Component

Air Conditioning

Average Service Interval

Service Descriptions

Restore cold, consistent air in your Land Rover with an inspect-first A/C Service. We performance-test the system, check for leaks, and only recover and recharge if tests show it is needed. Results are documented with pressures, vent temperatures, and photos.

Land Rover A/C systems do not require routine recharges on a fixed schedule. Instead, service is based on system performance and inspection results. Our process begins with a vent temperature and pressure test to evaluate cooling output. If pressures or performance are abnormal, we perform dye-assisted or electronic leak detection. If refrigerant is low, we recover remaining charge, vacuum hold test, and recharge to the exact Land Rover factory specification (R-1234yf or R-134a depending on model). We also verify condenser fan operation, compressor control, blend door movement, and cabin filter condition. For vehicles in hot climates, heavy off-road conditions, or urban stop-and-go traffic, inspections may be recommended more often, but recharge is only performed when testing confirms it is necessary. A digital performance report is provided with photos and test results for complete transparency.

Drive Belt & Tensioner

Average Service Interval

60,000–80,000 miles or 60–72 months

Service Descriptions

Land Rover drive belt & tensioner replacement prevents belt failure and accessory loss by renewing worn belts, pulleys, and tensioners with OEM-approved parts.

The serpentine drive belt in Land Rover vehicles powers critical accessories including the alternator, water pump, A/C compressor, and in supercharged models, the supercharger pulley. Over time, belts crack, glaze, or stretch, while tensioners and idlers lose spring force or develop bearing noise. If a belt fails, cooling, charging, or A/C systems stop immediately, risking overheating and breakdown. During this service, we remove the worn belt, inspect pulleys, replace the belt and tensioner with Land Rover-approved components, torque fasteners to spec, and verify alignment. The engine is then run to confirm smooth, quiet operation. This service prevents sudden failures, ensures reliable performance, and protects sensitive accessories.

Timing Belt

Average Service Interval

90,000–105,000 miles or 84–120 months

Service Descriptions

Land Rover timing belt replacement prevents engine damage by renewing the belt, tensioner, and related components before wear or failure occurs.

Certain Land Rover diesel engines (such as the 2.7L & 3.0L TDV6, SDV6, and 2.2L TD4) use timing belts instead of chains. These belts synchronize the crankshaft and camshafts, ensuring precise valve timing. Over time, belts wear, crack, or lose tension, risking catastrophic engine damage if they break. During this service, we replace the belt, tensioner, and idler pulleys with OEM Land Rover parts, and inspect or replace the water pump and seals as recommended. Components are torqued to factory specification, and timing is rechecked electronically after installation. This service ensures reliable valve timing, prevents engine failure, and extends engine life.

System

Ignition

Component

Spark

Average Service Interval

60,000 miles or 72 months

Service Descriptions

Land Rover spark plug replacement restores strong ignition, smooth performance, and protects catalytic converters by installing OEM plugs torqued to factory specifications.

Spark plugs are a critical ignition component in Land Rover gasoline engines. Over time, electrodes wear down, gaps widen, and plugs can foul, leading to misfires, hard starts, rough idle, or reduced performance. During this service, we remove and replace all spark plugs with Land Rover-approved OEM parts, inspect coils and boots for damage or oil intrusion, and torque plugs to manufacturer specifications. Our technicians reset misfire counters, clear related codes, and road test to confirm smooth idle, throttle response, and acceleration. Replacing plugs at the proper interval ensures maximum efficiency, prevents catalytic converter damage, and keeps the engine running at peak performance.

Service Descriptions

Land Rover ignition coil replacement restores strong spark, eliminates misfires, and protects catalytic converters by installing OEM coils tested for performance and durability.

Ignition coils are critical to reliable combustion in Land Rover engines. Subjected to high heat, vibration, and load, coils can crack or weaken internally, causing misfires, rough idle, hesitation, or hard starts. During this service, we diagnose misfires using scan data and oscilloscope testing, then replace failing coil(s) with Land Rover-approved OEM units. Spark plugs and boots are inspected for wear or oil intrusion, and electrical connectors are checked for corrosion. After replacement, we clear misfire counters, reset fault codes, and road test to confirm smooth idle and strong acceleration. This service restores performance, prevents catalytic converter damage, and improves fuel efficiency.
