Expert JLR engine repairs and rebuilds, with collection across Epping.
Don't Have Reg..?
Range Rover Garage gives Epping owners a specialist main dealer alternative for engine work on Range Rover, Land Rover Defender, Discovery and Jaguar models. Our factory-trained engineers focus solely on JLR engines, including Ingenium petrol and diesel units and the TDV6, SDV6 and TDV8 families.
We operate from a fully equipped workshop in Grays, Essex, and collect vehicles from across the CM16 postcode area, including Epping Green, Theydon Bois and North Weald. Diagnostics come first, followed by an itemised quote, and most rebuilds are completed within 7 to 14 working days.
Know Your Engine Code
Your engine code, usually stamped on the block or shown in service paperwork, tells us exactly which unit you have. Sharing it alongside your registration helps us quote accurately and match any replacement engine correctly.
Worn bearings, low compression or heavy oil consumption usually call for a rebuild rather than a patch repair on your Range Rover.
Each engine is stripped, ultrasonically cleaned, machined and reassembled to factory tolerances, then pressure-tested before it leaves our workshop.
Ingenium and V6 diesel engines can suffer timing chain stretch, often heard as a brief rattle on cold start.
We replace the chains, guides and tensioners together, and confirm the likely timescale for your engine once diagnostics are complete.
Where a rebuild isn't economical, we supply and fit tested reconditioned engines for Defender and Discovery models.
Reconditioned units carry six months' warranty, with extended dealer-level cover of up to 24 months also available.
Specialist engine work should not mean a long drive or a day off work. We collect your vehicle from Epping, carry out all diagnostics and repairs at our Grays workshop, and return it once the job is signed off. Our engineers work exclusively on Range Rover, Land Rover and Jaguar engines, using genuine and OEM-grade parts tested against manufacturer specifications, so faults are properly identified rather than guessed at and you know the cost upfront.
Epping Collection and Return
Our Services
Alongside rebuilds and replacements, we handle targeted engine work on Range Rover Sport, Evoque, Velar, Vogue, Discovery and Defender models, with collection throughout the CM16 area.
An amber engine light or sudden limp mode needs proper investigation, not guesswork. We combine dealer-level diagnostic equipment with physical checks, and same-day diagnostics are available on most bookings.

Sluggish acceleration, a high-pitched whine or oil in the intercooler can signal a tired turbo. We find out why it failed, correcting oil feed or boost issues, before fitting a replacement.

Coolant disappearing without a visible leak, misting from the exhaust or mayonnaise-like residue under the oil cap can point to head gasket failure. Early repair helps protect the cylinder heads.

From EGR valve faults to oil leaks and failed injectors, many problems can be fixed without a full rebuild. We repair the specific fault and test the engine thoroughly before returning it.

For older Freelander, Discovery and Range Rover models, a tested second-hand engine may be the most practical option. We check compatibility first, and swaps carry one month's warranty.

Some earlier Land Rover engines use a timing belt that must be renewed at set intervals. Replacing it on schedule avoids sudden failure, bent valves and a far larger repair bill.

"The Discovery 5 threw an engine warning on the way back from Theydon Bois. Their diagnostic check found a sticking EGR valve, and they showed me the readings before recommending anything."

"What I valued most with my Jaguar E-Pace was being told honestly that a full rebuild wasn't needed. The updates were regular, and the final bill matched what we'd agreed on the phone."

"Living in North Weald, I didn't fancy driving a misfiring Defender 90 across Essex. They collected it from home, kept me posted while it was in, and brought it back on the promised day."
