Internal and external engine parts for Land Rover diesel and petrol engines, from the 300Tdi and Td5 to the TDV6, SDV6, SDV8 and Ingenium units.
The Range Rover Evoque (L538) was sold in South Africa with 3 different engines. Internal parts, gaskets, timing components and sensors are specific to each, so the engine code decides the part before anything else.
| Engine | Code / family | Fuel |
|---|---|---|
| 2.2 SD4 / TD4 turbodiesel | — | Diesel |
| 2.0 Si4 turbo petrol | Si4 | Petrol |
| 2.0 Ingenium diesel (later models) | Ingenium | Diesel |
Later Evoques with the 2.0 Ingenium diesel are listed by JLR specialists among models affected by premature timing chain stretch.
The 2.2 diesel shared with the Freelander 2 and Discovery Sport uses a timing belt that must be changed on schedule.
Evoque L538 owners most often look for gearbox-related parts and reconditioned gearboxes, air-conditioning components, rear differentials and couplings on all-wheel-drive versions, and timing belt or timing chain kits depending on engine.
Replacing the whole unit? A complete unit may cost less than rebuilding one on an older Range Rover Evoque (L538). See engines for sale , cylinder heads for sale or turbochargers for sale .
Start with the VIN on your licence disc and in the windscreen corner. The vehicle's registration papers, the service book and the engine number stamped on the block also identify it. Model names alone are not enough: a Discovery 4, for example, came with different diesel and petrol engines, and a Defender could have a 300Tdi, Td5 or Puma diesel depending on its year. Send the VIN with your quote request so the part can be matched to the engine code.
It depends on what failed. A leaking gasket, a worn timing kit or a faulty injector is a repair job. Bottom-end damage, such as a spun bearing or a broken crankshaft on a V6 diesel, often makes a complete replacement engine more practical than a rebuild, because the block, crank and turbo may all need attention. Get a proper diagnosis first, then compare the cost of a rebuild kit plus machining against a complete engine.
For how these parts work and the signs of wear, read the Land Rover engine parts guide.
Share the VIN and engine number and the SparesBoyz parts team will check fitment before quoting.
