You need to get the guys doing the conversion to do the homework. I believe the 4.4 was a BMW engine, the 4 litre was jag. My 02 full fat was BMW and I believe this changed late 05-06.

I thought all D3/RRS all had Ford derived engines - the diesels Ford family, the 4.0 V6 from the American Ford Explorer and the Petrol V8s from Jaguar.

I am not the oricle but the Diesel engines are different to petrol. The V6 was Jaguar but the TDV8 was LR designed and supplied.

The TDV8 is a Ford engine - part of the Lion family.

All V6 & V8 diesels are the Lion engine developed by Ford/Jag & Peugeot, All RRS/D3 V8 petrols were Jaguar from the start. The FFRR continued with the 3.0l BMW diesel until the launch of the 3.6l TDV8, the FFRR got the Jaguar V8's at 2005/6 facelift |
