How much does an Ingenium 2.0 diesel engine replacement cost?

A reconditioned Ingenium 2.0 diesel typically costs £3,500–£5,800 supply only, varying by power output and specific sub-variant. Fitting adds £900–£1,700 depending on labour rates and vehicle model.

Is the Ingenium 2.0 diesel a reliable engine?

It is a capable and efficient modern diesel (3.5★), but its reputation is mixed due to pre-2019 timing chain tensioner failures and oil-dilution from DPF regens. Post-2019 revisions are significantly improved.

What is the most common Ingenium 2.0 diesel failure?

Pre-2019 timing chain tensioner failure is the most critical - it can cause sudden chain stretch and catastrophic valve/piston interference. Other common issues include EGR cooler leaks and oil dilution from incomplete DPF regenerations on short-trip vehicles.

Which Land Rover models use the Ingenium 2.0 diesel?

It powers the Discovery Sport (L550), Evoque (L551), Velar (L560), and Defender (L663) - spanning 150–240 hp outputs.

Is the Land Rover Ingenium 2.0 diesel the same as Jaguar's version?

Yes - the 204DTD and 224DT engine codes are shared across both brands. The engine is mechanically identical between Land Rover and Jaguar fitments, though ECU calibrations and ancillaries differ by model.

88% confidence - based on 1,500+ real UK enquiries, specialist rebuild reports, and JLR TSB documentation.

The Ingenium 2.0 diesel is a strong, efficient modern unit - but pre-2019 timing chain tensioners can fail without much warning - insist on full service history and post-2019 hardware where possible.
