A rattling startup noise is often the first warning sign of timing chain wear, and ignoring it can lead to catastrophic engine failure. Our Land Rover-trained technicians diagnose, repair and replace Range Rover timing chains using genuine parts and dealer-level equipment.

Root-Cause Diagnosis
OEM Components Only
Range Rover and Land Rover engines demand specialist knowledge that general garages simply don't have. Our technicians work exclusively on these platforms, understanding exactly how timing chains, tensioners and guides behave across different engine families.
We diagnose before we quote, so you're never paying for guesswork. Every rattle, warning light or rough idle is properly investigated using dealer-level diagnostic equipment before any repair work ever begins.
From TDV6 and TDV8 diesels to Ingenium and AJ133 supercharged V8 engines, we've replaced timing chains across the full Range Rover and Land Rover lineup, giving us insight competitors rarely match.
Getting your Range Rover timing chain replaced starts with a simple conversation. Tell us your symptoms, model and mileage, and we'll provide an initial assessment before any physical inspection takes place.
Once booked, we arrange collection from anywhere in the UK, carry out a full diagnostic inspection, confirm the exact repair required, and keep you updated at every stage until your vehicle is tested, verified and delivered back to you.

Range Rover Sport, Evoque, Velar and Vogue models all rely on precision timing chain systems. We diagnose early rattle symptoms and carry out full replacements using dealer-specification components throughout.

From Discovery to Defender, we service and repair timing chains across the full Land Rover range, addressing chain rattle, tensioner wear and guide failure with genuine parts and expert diagnostics.

Sharing engineering with Land Rover, many Jaguar models suffer similar timing chain wear. Our technicians apply the same specialist diagnostic approach to identify and resolve chain-related faults quickly and accurately.
Our team brings years of hands-on experience working specifically on Land Rover and Range Rover powertrains, not general automotive repair. That focus means faster, more accurate diagnosis every single time. Continuous training keeps us current with the latest technical bulletins, common failure points and manufacturer updates, so every timing chain replacement reflects the newest guidance available for your model.

Factory Tooling
Qualified Engineers
Wherever you're based in the UK, distance shouldn't stand between you and a properly repaired Range Rover. We arrange secure collection from your home or workplace at a time that suits you. Your vehicle is transported safely to our Grays workshop, where our specialists carry out the full diagnosis and repair before arranging delivery back to your door, fully tested, road-checked and ready to drive.

Request A QuoteHow much does a Range Rover timing chain replacement cost?
Costs vary depending on model, engine type and the extent of damage, since some repairs also involve tensioners, guides or gaskets. We provide a fixed, transparent quote only after a full diagnostic inspection, so you know exactly what you're paying for.
What are the symptoms of a failing timing chain?
Common warning signs include a rattling or slapping noise on cold start, a check engine light, rough idling and reduced engine performance. Left unaddressed, a worn timing chain can jump time and cause serious internal engine damage.
How long does timing chain replacement take?
Most Range Rover and Land Rover timing chain replacements take between one and three days, depending on engine access and whether tensioners or guides also need replacing. We confirm an accurate timeframe after inspection.
Can I still drive with a rattling timing chain?
We don't recommend it. A rattling chain indicates wear that worsens over time, and continuing to drive risks the chain skipping or snapping, which can cause expensive and sometimes irreparable engine damage.
Do all Range Rovers have timing chain problems?
Not every model or engine is affected equally, but certain diesel and supercharged petrol engines are more prone to chain, tensioner and guide wear. Regular inspection helps catch issues early, before they become costly repairs.
Do you offer a warranty on timing chain repairs?
Yes, every timing chain replacement we carry out is covered by a 12-month parts and labour warranty, reflecting our confidence in genuine components and the quality of our workmanship on every vehicle.
