How much does a Land Rover Evoque D240 engine replacement cost in the UK?

A reconditioned 204DTD twin-turbo engine typically costs £3,500–£5,800 supply only. Fitting adds £1,000–£1,500. Use our calculator for a figure specific to your vehicle.

Is the Evoque D240 engine reliable?

The 204DTD in D240 form is rated ★★★☆☆ — the same known issues as the single-turbo 204DTD apply: timing chain tensioner failure (pre-2019 recall), oil dilution from DPF regeneration, and EGR cooler leaks. The twin-turbo configuration adds complexity. Short production run means fewer long-term data points.

What are the common problems with the Evoque D240?

Timing chain tensioner failure (pre-2019 units — verify recall completion), oil dilution from DPF regeneration, and EGR cooler/coolant system leaks are the most common issues. All are repairable if caught early — timing chain work is the most costly.

Is it worth replacing an Evoque D240 engine, or should I scrap the car?

Against a £10,000–£18,000 Evoque D240, a £4,500 recon engine is a manageable 25–45% of the vehicle's value — worth it for a well-maintained example. Given the Evoque's strong retained values, replacement is usually viable.

How do I find my Evoque's engine code?

For the D240, the engine code is 204DTD — it's on the VIN plate and vehicle documentation. The D240 badge signifies the 2.0-litre twin-turbo diesel Ingenium. If you're unsure, tell us your registration date and we'll confirm it for free.

Can I repair the 204DTD's timing chain, or does it need a new engine?

Yes — if caught early, a timing chain and tensioner replacement costing £1,200–£2,500 can save the engine. Verify recall completion on pre-2019 units. If the chain has already skipped or snapped, piston-valve contact usually requires a full engine replacement.

Buying This Evoque D240? Check These First

Buy If

Full Land Rover service history with documented oil-change intervals
Timing chain tensioner recall work confirmed as completed (especially pre-2019)
Evidence of frequent oil changes (every 5,000–7,000 miles) to mitigate oil dilution
Regular motorway driving patterns (to clear the DPF)

Avoid If

Service history shows only urban driving patterns (DPF and oil dilution risk)
Oil level is visibly above the max mark on the dipstick — diesel contamination
No record of timing chain tensioner recall work on pre-2019 units
Engine warning light present with no diagnosis documentation

Closing Verdict

The Evoque D240's 204DTD is a powerful twin-turbo diesel, but it shares the same well-documented Ingenium D issues as the single-turbo variants — timing chain tensioner failure and oil dilution from DPF regeneration. Buy on service history and proof of recall work. The short production run (2019–2020) means fewer data points, but if you're replacing, a reconditioned unit with a 12-month warranty is the sweet spot.

Buying Checklist

Before you buy a used Land Rover Evoque D240 (or before you commit to an engine replacement), check these:

Cold Start — Listen for any rattle on startup (timing chain tensioner wear — verify recall completion)

Service History — Including which engine era (204DTD is the only D240 engine — verify this before purchase)

Oil Level Check — Is the oil above the max mark? This indicates potential diesel contamination from oil dilution

Coolant Level — Is the coolant low with no visible leak? EGR cooler or coolant pipe risk

DPF Regeneration — Has the vehicle had regular motorway runs? Short journeys accelerate DPF wear

Oil Consumption — Does it use more than 1L per 5,000 miles? If so, investigate

Engine Warning Light — Have codes been read? Any unresolved emissions or timing issues?

MOT History — Check for emissions-related failures; often point to DPF or EGR problems
