Known Issue

Freelander K-Series Head Gasket Failure?

The 1.8i petrol K-Series is one of the most widely documented head gasket failure patterns in the entire Rover/Land Rover engine range - multiple manufacturer TSBs and specialist sources confirm it. We replace the head gasket and inspect the block as standard on every K-Series rebuild. The BMW-sourced M47 diesel fitted to both Freelander generations shares the same timing-chain stretch and injector-seal pattern found on contemporary BMW 3 Series and 5 Series diesels of the same era.

No hidden extras.

Why We Rebuild Instead Of Swap

Most engine suppliers sell you a used engine of unknown history and hope it matches. We do it differently.

We rebuild the engine your Freelander already has - strip it down, pressure-test it, and replace every worn or damaged component with new OEM parts. You get a near-new engine that's better than what came out, with a 12-month unlimited-mileage warranty - and you keep your car's original identity.

Used engines carry hidden wear, unknown mileage and compatibility risk. A rebuild removes that risk entirely - and more often than not, it works out cheaper than sourcing and fitting a used replacement, both short and long term.

Looking For A Used Or Replacement Engine Instead?

We supply low-mileage, VIN-matched used units too. However, most Land Rover owners choose a rebuild once they realise it removes compatibility risk, keeps their original engine number, and often works out cheaper than fitting an unknown used engine.

Enter your reg below - we'll show you both options.
