Range Rover Sport 2.7 TDV6 — Repair, Buy, or Replace?
Every 320d has a story. Make the right call with clear data, real-world costs, and honest guidance from UK specialists.
Can It Be Repaired?
Buying This 2.7 TDV6? Check These First
Buy If
- Oil pump housing replaced (critical — confirm this work has been done)
- No cold-start knocking (listen carefully on first start)
- Full service history with regular oil changes (oil condition is critical)
- Long MOT with no emissions-related failures
Avoid If
- No record of oil pump housing work — assume it's overdue and budget £1,500–£3,000
- Cold-start knocking — the 276DT is a one-shot engine; budget for replacement
- Poor service history or extended oil change intervals — the 276DT doesn't forgive neglect
- Overheating history — may indicate head gasket or cooling system issues
Closing Verdict
The 2.7 TDV6 in the pre-facelift Range Rover Sport is a capable, torquey engine that's let down by one critical design flaw — the oil pump housing. Address this preventatively and the 276DT is a robust, refined V6 diesel. Ignore it and you're looking at a £5,000–£7,500 engine replacement. With typical L320 values of £4,000–£10,000, an engine replacement is borderline but often worth it for a cherished example. Oil pump housing work is non-negotiable on any 2.7 TDV6.

Buying Checklist
Before you buy a used Land Rover Range Rover Sport 2.7 TDV6 (or before you commit to an engine replacement), check these:
Oil Pump Housing — Confirm replacement (critical — ask for proof on any 2.7 TDV6)
Cold Start — Listen carefully for any knocking or rattle; any is a red flag
Oil Pressure — Check for oil pressure warning light; any flicker is a serious concern
Service History — Including regular oil changes (5,000-mile intervals preferred) — see the map above
Smoke Check — Black smoke = EGR/over-fuelling; white smoke = coolant ingress
Turbo Boost — Test acceleration; any lack of power or hesitation?
Engine Warning Light — Have codes read; unresolved issues may indicate EGR or injector problems
MOT History — Check for emissions-related failures and structural corrosion
Buy smart. Drive with confidence.
A few checks today can save thousands tomorrow. Use this checklist to avoid the most common 320d pitfalls.
