2013 Range Rover Sport Supercharged Autobiography Santorini Black

Remember seeing this outfit in OZ, don't know anything about them just recall seeing website before. I would think the cost of shipping a engine from the UK would be horrendous due to the weight, especially if you have to return the old unit. If I remember right it cost me best part of $500 shipping on a set of front and rear EBC brake discs.

You could try searching for an engine from the Ford Territory... same engine. Apparently there were 12000 of these sold in New Zealand.
There are certainly 2.7 engines here in Australia. Quick look onm ebay shows a couple of them.https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/134430622717?hash=item1f4cb083fd:g:Xk0AAOSwwXxj198o&amdata=enc%3AAQAHAAAA8OeJk6F9OX17T9vTMiRE9w%2F7nm4JnVoEcWRMpHa119YRSfxIb4c%2BuYGlqXigJWxtgSvksIqfaUJB7lrNqzJhITPhrFAvcfhsIq34iQ8fjtr5c65fsjakUAEtxKUOK%2BCPJ3ATKMvnWiTSfzYG5TjQh9bgNDkFKso7KcbhXbSKghalKAgghNxyrDqPmOPOLdAOL5Ejm0xgMtgfFamxUntNZLs6wmDSNA9QeZ2oP%2FsTzff%2FVNEnCSyL9pn1wP%2FU9%2Fr6N92AbEwMILDUnT95SISArNNnHAwbJGJ2NV8onkkSRTyPOuevWdG9qqStg51avrnQ2g%3D%3D%7Ctkp%3ABFBMuq2_4dRh

To buy and fit a brand new engine, would it not be cheaper to just buy another one, with those miles on the clock it has had a lifetime use.

If one knows the car inside out and has spent money on ensuring everything is sorted, swapping to a new car brings the risk of buying a pup with lots of issues ready to bite your wallet. Swapping in a replacement engine might be the cheaper option in that case. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed

Looked at it to buy would be $7,500NZD plus shipping not forgetting GST/VAT.
Have found a 2013 Ford Territory 2.7tdi car with interior water damaged(windows left open and garden sprinkler system damaged it)here in Christchurch NZ done 140,000km(87,000 miles) on Auction site is at $3,500(1,110 pounds) so will be watching this finishes this Wednesday..

Very true, have spent a lot of money over the 8 years and car drives absolutely or was perfectly, over last 2 years was driving like a new car, very very reluctant to scrap this, will be trying all the Ford breakers here in NZ, bound to be a good engine out of a Ford Territory as a member has said 12,000 of these in NZ over the years but a lot of these would be petrol, Cheers

Starting to think now brand new engine would be far to expensive plus shipping from UK, Looking at all options at the moment.

An additional problem I can see with shipping a engine from UK, OZ or anywhere else overseas for that matter, that if by any chance you had a problem with it assuming it had a warranty, would be getting anything done about it without it costing you a lot more money and time with vehicle of the road, especially if it was a s/h engine.

Ok join AULRO and pay the basic subscription so you have access to the entire forum.

Start by looking here https://www.aulro.com/afvb/l319-discovery-...guide.html which is the guide to doing this as some parts need to come across from your old engine. As there is information scattered all over the site put a post in that thread and all the additional knowledge will come streaming in.

1500 pounds is a really good price - Territory engines used to be cheap here until the wreckers cottoned on to what was happening as Territory engines do not fail so no one wanted them so were cheap until LR owners worked this out and demand skyrocketed.

Good luck with the new engine. You have certainly done the sensible thing using a Territory 2.7 TDCi engine, as these were not used until 2012, which means a number of improvements were made over the 1st 2.7s fitted to D3s.

Apparently the crankshafts & main bearings were upgraded & the oil pump was uprated (in addition to the casing being strengthened). The Territory motor seems to be similar to the 2.7 in the "entry-level" D4, which seem to be more reliable. The 3L ones are a different story again, however(!).

Certainly the incidence of crankshaft/bearing failure in Territories here in AU is very rare compared to Discovery 3s & RR Sports.

Cheers,

Lionel
