OEM Td5 service kit for your Land Rover whether it’s a Discovery or Defender.
This full service kit includes:
- Engine oil filter – Mahle
- Engine oil rotor filter with O ring seal – Mann & Hummel
- Fuel filter – Mahle
- Air filter – Mahle
- Sump plug washer
- Optional oil available – please select if required (15% off Td5 service kits when purchased with oil)
If your vehicle is fitted with a water sensor on the fuel filter then this sensor will need to be transferred to the new filter prior to fitting. This is not essential.
We recommend a service interval of 6,000 miles or every 12 months for normal road use. This is also a good time to check and grease propshafts and suspension parts (if greaseable). Long service intervals on older engines is not recommended regardless of oil manufacturer recommendations.
Important Tip: Do not overtighten the rotor filter housing lid. This must be torqued to 9Nm and no more or there is a real risk of damaging the threads meaning the lid will not seal. You may find this has already occurred if the lid bolts have nuts on them. None of the filters need to be overtightened.
Checking the Oil Level: The Td5 takes around 7.2 litres of oil (dry). If the vehicle has been run before checking the oil then it must be left to stand for 5-10 minutes before checking. The oil filter will take about 1 litres of oil so we recommend checking the oil level after the first drive. We estimate there is just over 1 litre between the minimum and maximum marks on the dipstick. Top up in small quantities to avoid overfilling.
