Do Land Rover Supply Reconditioned engines?

I was quite surprised this evening to be told by the dealer trying to sell me a used D4 that it was fitted with a Land Rover reconditioned engine.

Up to now he had described it as a “new” engine.

Do LR even supply recon engines?

If so is it as good / better / worse than new?

I was quite ok with the new engine. But recon, even with approved warranty is making me more nervous.

Are my concerns justified?

TIA

Johnny.

2.7's are recon, done to a standard, not a price Thumbs Up

Supposedly, all 3.0's are still brand new units, but either way, if it is a genuine LR lump, I wouldnt be wary of it Thumbs Up

Thanks Mikey much appreciated.

It’s a 3.0.

I was quite ok with the idea of a 0 miles engine. My doubt now is the engine could be much older and higher mileage than the car. Obviously I have no idea how far they go in terms of reconditioning.

would a reconditioned engine from LR usually come with new (or recon) water and oil pump?

Just trying to prepare myself fully for the conversation with them. Thanks all.

I would like to imagine that they would replace "all" working/moving parts. So hopefully that would include the oil pump but worth checking. Thumbs Up

The 3.0 are fully remanfactured from the exchange engines that come from jobs where a new engine has been fitted. New cranks are fitted regardless of the condition of the 'old' crank.

I've been to the reman plant and it's very impressive.



Pricing is good too and warranty the same as a 'new' engine.

How much is a new 3.0l then? Do they come ready to drop in with turbos etc?

there has just been a thread on here about a Warranty Direct engine replacement after crank failure, which was a new engine i believe, costing about £11.5k

Price comparison; New Vs Reman

GEN1 3.0 up to 2015

New long engine = £10,163
Reman long engine = £6,177
New short engine = £4,749

No reman short engines yet.

GEN2 3.0 2015 onwards

New long engine = £8,090
New short engine = £4,800
No reman GEN2 engines yet

Notes

All engines come with timing belts, rocker covers (inlet manifolds), oil pump, sump, front cover and 24mth warranty.

All prices subject to £2,500 surcharge against old engine. Snapped cranks are ok so long as no block damage has occurred. VAT is not included in these prices, except for the surcharge.

We've fitted a few of the reman engines and new ones. I have to say they look exactly the same to me.

Maybe a silly question, but what’s the difference (Apart from cost) between a GEN1 and GEN2 3.0 engine?
