Range Rover 5.0 Engine Replacement UK – When Your V8 Fails, We Fix It Properly

“When the big ends went, I thought it was the end for my Disco 3. RR4x4 Works presented a clear choice: a gamble on a used engine or a proper rebuild that would last. Their explanation about the oil cooler and uprated bearings made the rebuild the obvious long-term decision. The process was transparent, and getting the old crankshaft and bearings back in a box showed exactly what had failed. It wasn't a quick fix, but it was the right fix. The car now drives better than it has in years.”

“When my Disco’s engine exploded, I was devastated. RR4x4 Works explained that a used engine was a lottery, but a rebuild with a stronger crankshaft could actually make it more reliable than before. Seeing the snapped crank made the problem real. Their thorough approach, rebuilding the turbos and everything, gave me total confidence. Yes, it was an investment, but I now have my vehicle back with a known, warrantied engine that should last for years. Exceptional, honest service.”

“I’d been topping up coolant for months, and two garages told me it was ‘probably a small external leak’ or the pressure cap. RR4x4 Works did a simple test with blue liquid and immediately showed me bubbles – proof the leak was inside the engine. Their explanation of sending the head to be tested and machined made total sense compared to just swapping the gasket. The repair was thorough, included the timing chain, and now my Disco 5 runs perfectly with no temperature warnings. Finally, a permanent fix.”

“My Discovery Sport was a mess – smoking, shaking, and drinking coolant. I was braced for a head gasket bill. RR4x4 Works did a proper test and found combustion gas straight away, but they also smelled diesel in the coolant. They explained it could be a cracked head and the injector seals, and that just doing the gasket was a huge risk. Getting the head tested and welded made complete sense. Now, it runs perfectly, with no leaks or smoke. Their thoroughness saved me from a comeback job and got it right first time.”

“My Discovery was becoming a smoke machine and felt sluggish. I was worried it needed a full engine rebuild. RR4x4 Works checked the turbo shaft, found it was loose, and showed me all the oil in the intercooler pipes. Their explanation that a new turbo was the logical first and most likely fix made perfect sense. They cleaned everything out properly and now it runs like new, with no smoke and plenty of power. A clear, honest diagnosis that saved me from a much bigger bill.”

“When my turbo exploded on the M1, the recovery driver said ‘just needs a new turbo.’ RR4x4 Works found the real problem: a solid, blocked oil pipe. They explained that just bolting on a new turbo would have been like fixing a burst pipe without turning off the water main. Flushing the whole system and replacing all the lines made total sense. It wasn't the cheapest quote, but it was the only one that explained the why. The car now drives perfectly, and I know it won't happen again next week.”

“Everywhere I called said ‘head gasket’ as soon as I mentioned white smoke and coolant. RR4x4 Works did a simple test that proved it wasn’t the head. They found the leak was in the EGR cooler and explained exactly how the coolant was getting into the engine. Cleaning out the whole intake system and intercooler was a revelation – the amount of gunk that came out was shocking. Now it runs cleanly, doesn’t use a drop of coolant, and the oil is clean. Their diagnostic skill saved me from an unnecessary and massive repair bill.”

“The startup rattle on my Range Rover was so bad it was embarrassing. RR4x4 Works diagnosed it immediately as timing guides. They explained that just fixing the broken ones would be a temporary patch, as the others were just as old. Doing the full job on both sides made complete sense for a permanent solution. The difference is night and day – it now starts as quietly as a new car. Their expertise saved me from a future breakdown and a second huge labour bill.”

“The startup rattle on my Evoque was getting worse. RR4x4 Works didn't just listen to it; they hooked up computers and pressure gauges. They showed me the data that the chain was stretched and explained that just changing it might not last if the oil pressure wasn't spot on. Replacing the pump at the same time made total sense for a long-term fix. The process was clear, and now the car starts silently every time. They treat the cause, not just the symptom.”

“I was going in circles with my Sport – it kept overheating but never leaked a drop on my driveway. The smell inside was worrying. RR4x4 Works used a smoke machine and showed me exactly where it was leaking from under the supercharger. Their explanation about all the internal seals ageing together made complete sense. Doing the full set of seals while it was off the car was the only logical choice. Now it runs cool and the smell is gone. Expert diagnosis and a proper, lasting fix.”

“When I saw that brown gunk on the dipstick, I feared the worst. RR4x4 Works diagnosed the oil cooler straight away but stressed that just changing it wasn't enough. Their explanation about the abrasive sludge hiding everywhere made perfect sense. Their process of flushing, cleaning the turbo lines, and even the intercooler was thorough. They showed me the clogged oil pickup screen – it was frightening. Now the oil is crystal clear, and it runs perfectly. They didn't take shortcuts, and that's why I trust them.”

“My Range Rover was drinking coolant and overheating, but no garage could find the leak. RR4x4 Works used a smoke machine and showed me exactly where it was escaping – from under the supercharger. Their explanation about the internal seals made perfect sense. They recommended replacing the whole set and the coupler while it was apart, which stopped me worrying about the next failure. The repair was thorough, and now it runs cool and holds coolant perfectly. Exceptional diagnostic skill and honest advice.”

“After weeks of worrying about the rattle and scary oil light, the team at RR4x4 Works took the time to show me the diagnostic data and explain exactly why just doing the chains might not last. They presented the different options clearly without any pressure. Choosing the full repair was a decision based on understanding, not fear. The car has been silent and perfect ever since, and I have total confidence in it again. This is how all car repairs should be handled.”

“I brought my Evoque in with that horrible cold start rattle, terrified the engine was about to blow. The team at RR4x4 Works didn’t just give me a quote; they took the time to show me the diagnostic codes, explain exactly why the front and rear parts needed doing, and laid out my options without any pressure. The difference now is incredible—it starts like a new car and the power is back. I have complete confidence that this fix is permanent. Their thoroughness and expertise are worth every penny.”

“My Velar had become embarrassing to drive – juddering at lights and sounding like a diesel. RR4x4 Works didn’t just guess; they showed me the camera footage of the clogged valves and explained the timing chain data. Opting for the full repair made complete sense. I got my car back feeling and sounding like new. Their thorough approach saved me time and money in the long run, and I finally enjoy driving it again.”

“After my Vogue started looking sorry for itself every morning, I dreaded a huge bill. RR4x4 Works found not one, but two separate leaks. They explained how just doing the spring would likely lead to the compressor failing soon after. Their approach of fixing the whole problem made complete sense. The repair was efficient, and the car now sits perfectly level all the time. Their knowledge saved me from a future breakdown and expense.”
