Just checked for you:

The Hitachi was fitted during these VIN ranges so any vehicle afterwards should have an AMK.

Discovery 3/LR3 - 5A000360 to 9A513325

Range Rover Sport - 5A900302 to 9A215622

I thought they went to the AMK in 2011 as the Japanese earthquake/Tsunami in March 2011 damaged the Hitachi factory that made the compressors and a new source had to be found.

But a MY 2012 should have the AMK. 07MY RRS TDV6

I think were it gets confusing is that there was an older version of the AMK too, with the latest version being introduced in 2012, so the last D3s/pre-facelift RRSs and original D4s/facelift RRSs had AMKs fitted - but the earlier design.
