How much does a PT204 (2.0 Si4 GTDi) engine replacement cost?

A reconditioned PT204 typically costs £2,995–£3,650 supply only, varying by power output and specification. Used units can be found from £1,800–£2,800, but provenance is critical. Fitting adds £900–£1,500 depending on labour rates.

Is the PT204 (2.0 Si4 GTDi) a reliable engine?

The PT204 has a mixed reputation (3.5★). It offers strong performance and decent economy, but early examples (2017–2019) have reported cooling system issues, timing chain stretch, and phase regulator problems. Later revisions are more dependable.

What is the most common PT204 failure?

The most common issues include cooling system leaks and charge air pipe tears (early examples), crankshaft pulley bolt issues causing oil pump problems, Ti-VCT phase regulator wear, and timing chain stretch requiring replacement around 93,000 miles.

Which Land Rover models use the PT204?

The PT204 powers the Defender, Discovery 5, Discovery Sport, Evoque, Range Rover, Range Rover Sport, and Velar - spanning 200–300 hp outputs across P200, P250, and P300 variants.

Is the Land Rover PT204 the same as Jaguar's version?

Yes - the PT204 is shared with Jaguar fitments (AJ200P / 204PT) in the XE, XF, F-Pace, and E-Pace. The engine is mechanically identical, though ECU calibrations and ancillaries differ by model.
