The Range Rover Sport SDV8 has been a performance-oriented diesel option since the model's introduction in 2005. Across both the L320 (2005–2013) and L494 (2013–2022) generations, it has used the 4.4-litre V8 diesel, badged as either TDV8 or SDV8 depending on the model year and power output. It shares its fundamental architecture with the TDV6/SDV6 engines, meaning it exhibits a similar wear pattern over time. The Range Rover Sport SDV8 is no longer in production, but we continue to rebuild and replace engines for every one still on the road. Land Rover Range Rover Sport SDV8 Engine Compatibility Because the SDV8 engine was fitted across two different generations of the Range Rover Sport (L320 and L494), there are differences in ancillary components, electronics, and ECU calibrations. Fitting the wrong replacement — or assuming parts from one generation work on another — risks a compatibility problem that's expensive to unpick. Before we quote or supply anything, we confirm: Your exact engine code (TDV8 or SDV8) and tune via registration or VIN Your generation (L320 or L494) Drivetrain and ancillary specification Any electronics or ECU considerations specific to your exact build This is why we always start with your registration rather than a generic Range Rover Sport SDV8 quote — it protects you from paying for parts that don't fit your actual car.

Your car will have either the TDV8 or SDV8 engine code. Enter your registration on this page and we'll confirm your exact spec before you're quoted anything. Do you rebuild TDV8 Range Rover Sport engines? Yes. We replace timing chains, injector seals, EGR components, and gaskets as standard on every TDV8 rebuild. Do you rebuild SDV8 Range Rover Sport engines? Yes. The SDV8 is a higher-output version of the same 4.4-litre V8, and we service it to the same high standard as the TDV8. Do you supply used Range Rover Sport SDV8 engines? Yes, in some cases a matched low-mileage used engine is the right option. Our team will advise honestly once we've matched your registration and understood your situation. Can you recover my Range Rover Sport if the engine has failed? Yes — nationwide recovery is available from £70, and most vehicles are collected within a few hours of booking. How long does a Range Rover Sport SDV8 engine rebuild take? Most rebuilds are completed within 3-5 working days from the time your car arrives at our workshop. Is rebuilding better than fitting a used engine? For most Range Rover Sport owners, yes. A rebuild removes the compatibility risk that comes with an unknown used unit's history, and comes with a 12-month unlimited-mileage warranty — often longer and more comprehensive than what a used engine supplier offers. <a name="quote-form"></a> Get Your Free Land Rover Range Rover Sport SDV8 Fixed-Price Quote [Quote Form: Registration Number | Postcode | Name | Phone | Email | Issue/Enquiry Type (dropdown: Engine Failure / Replacement Needed / General Enquiry) | Submit] Most quotes returned within 30 minutes during working hours. json { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@graph": [ { "@type": "Organization", "@id": "https://landrovergarage.co.uk#organization", "name": "Land Rover Garage", "url": "https://landrovergarage.co.uk", "email": "info@landrovergarage.co.uk", "telephone": "+44 01268 944 234", "sameAs": [ "https://facebook.com/landroverrebuildgarageuk", "https://twitter.com/landroverrebuildgarageuk", "https://instagram.com/landroverrebuildgarageuk", "https://tiktok.com/@landroverrebuildgarageuk" ] }, { "@type": "AutoRepair", "@id": "https://landrovergarage.co.uk#autorepair", "name": "Land Rover Garage – Range Rover Sport SDV8 Engine Rebuild Specialists", "url": "https://landrovergarage.co.uk/range-rover-sport-sdv8-engines", "telephone": "+44 01268 944 234", "email": "info@landrovergarage.co.uk", "priceRange": "££££", "address": { "@type": "PostalAddress", "streetAddress": "Unit A5 Windsor Road, Commercial Estate, Ramsden Heath", "addressLocality": "Billericay", "postalCode": "CM11 1QE", "addressCountry": "GB" }, "openingHours": "Mo-Fr 09:00-18:00, Sa 11:00-14:00", "areaServed": "GB", "parentOrganization": { "@id": "https://landrovergarage.co.uk#organization" }, "brand": { "@type": "Brand", "name": "Land Rover" } }, { "@type": "Service", "serviceType": "Land Rover Range Rover Sport SDV8 Engine Rebuild & Replacement", "provider": { "@type": "AutoRepair", "name": "Land Rover Garage" }, "areaServed": "GB", "offers": { "@type": "Offer", "priceCurrency": "GBP", "price": "4500", "description": "Land Rover Range Rover Sport SDV8 engine rebuild starting price, TDV8 and SDV8" } }, { "@type": "FAQPage", "mainEntity": [ { "@type": "Question", "name": "What engine does the Land Rover Range Rover Sport SDV8 use?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "The Range Rover Sport SDV8 uses the 4.4-litre V8 diesel, badged as either TDV8 or SDV8 depending on the model year and power output.
