Common Problems
Range Rover Sport Engine Problems - What It Costs to Fix & When Replacement Makes Sense
The Range Rover Sport delivers formidable off-road capability and luxury refinement, but its engine range has well-documented weak points. The 3.0 TDV6/SDV6 (306DT/306PS) dominates replacement demand due to catastrophic crankshaft failure, while the 5.0 AJ133 supercharged V8 suffers timing chain tensioner degradation and oil consumption. Across all diesel...
Range Rover Sport Crankshaft Failure - The 3.0 TDV6/SDV6 Silent Killer
Range Rover Sport Crankshaft Failure
Most affected vehicles
Range Rover Sport L320 TDV6L320 SDV6
Range Rover Sport L320 TDV6, L320 SDV6, L494 TDV6, L494 SDV6 (2010-2019, 306DT & 306PS engines)
Failure mileage range
80,000 - 140,000 miles (often without warning)
Typical failure window
Root cause
A narrow bearing design inherited from the 2.7 TDV6, combined with oil starvation or extended service intervals, leads to bearing spin followed by crankshaft fracture. Once the crank snaps, the engine seizes instantly - no rebuild is viable.
Repair options & estimated costs (UK ranges)
| Repair tier | Dealer price | Specialist price | What it involves | Longevity / suitability |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Full Replacement - Reconditioned Engine | £6,700 - £9,000 | £3,700 - £5,200 | Supply of hot-tested reconditioned long engine with upgraded crankshaft and bearings, plus 10-14 hours labour | 12-month unlimited mileage warranty; upgraded components address original design flaw |
| Full Replacement - Used Engine | £4,500 - £6,500 | £2,700 - £3,900 | Low-mileage used engine from donor vehicle, fitted with new consumables | 3-6 month warranty only; no guarantee original crankshaft weakness is resolved |
Our recommendation
There is no preventative fix for crankshaft failure - when the crank snaps, replacement is the only option. We recommend a reconditioned engine with an upgraded crankshaft and heavy-duty bearings over a used unit. The additional £1,000-£1,500 buys a 12-month unlimited warranty and assurance the known design flaw has been addressed. On a Range Rover Sport worth £8,000-£15,000, a proper reconditioned engine is the financially sensible choice.

The 2.0-litre Ingenium diesel joined the L494 Range Rover Sport in 2016 as the entry-level diesel option, prioritising fuel economy and lower CO₂ emissions over outright performance. Codenamed AJ200D, this four-cylinder turbo diesel was also offered in D180 and D240 power tunes before being phased out in favour of the straight-six MHEV units on the L461 generation.
