Technical Data
Lubricants & FluidsLUBRICANTS AND FLUIDS
Recommendations for all climates and 
conditions.
NOTE: Recommended oils are complete in 
themselves and additives should not be used.
NOTE: It is essential to change oil much more 
frequently if the vehicle is operated under 
severe conditions, especially if deep wading is 
carried out.
Engine oil
Use a 0W/30, 0W/40, 5W/30 or 5W/40 oil 
meeting API service level SJ/CD, EC11 and 
having a viscosity band recommended for the 
temperature range of your locality.
NOTE: Use only synthetic oils.
Engine oil temperature ranges
0W/30 will protect from -22ºF (-30ºC) to 95ºF 
(35ºC).
0W/40 will protect from -22ºF (-30ºC) to 122ºF 
(50ºC).
5W/30 will protect from -22ºF (-30ºC) to 95ºF 
(35ºC).
5W/40 will protect from -22ºF (-30ºC) to 122ºF 
(50ºC).
Main gearbox

Power steering
Texaco Cold Climate PAS fluid 14315 or service 
part number LRN2261 - ACE/PAS fluid.
Brake reservoir
Any brake fluid having a minimum boiling point 
of 500ºF (260°C) and complying with FMVSS 
116 DOT4.Windscreen washers
Screen washer fluid.
Engine cooling system
Use Castrol Anti-freeze NF, Texaco AFC or 
service part number LRN6024. Use one part 
anti-freeze to one part water for protection 
down to -36° C.

WARNING
•ALWAYS use radial-ply tires front and back. DO NOT use bias-ply tires, or interchange tires 
from front to back. 
•For optimum performance and handling ALWAYS replace tires with the same make and type 
as those fitted from new at the factory. If these tires are not available, consult your retailer 
for advice on Land Rover approved alternatives. Failure to do so may adversely affect vehicle 
handling.
•NEVER drive your vehicle if the tires are badly worn, cut or damaged, or if the pressures are 
incorrect.
•Incorrectly inflated tires wear rapidly and can seriously affect the vehicles safety and road 
handling characteristics.
•Your vehicle is fitted with tubeless road wheels that will NOT accept inner tubes. DO NOT fit 
a tube tire.
•ONLY Land Rover approved wheel and tire combinations should be fitted to the vehicle.

Recommended tire inflation pressures
NOTE: The pressure for your spare tire should be set to the highest value given for your vehicle’s 
wheel/tire size combination, and adjusted after fitment.
NOTE: When towing a heavily laden trailer, tire pressures should be increased to the maximum 
specified in the handbook, and road speeds limited to 60 mph (100 km/h).
Tire inflation pressure
It is important that tires be properly inflated. Air pressure enables a tire to support the vehicle load, 
so proper inflation is critical. Failure to maintain correct inflation pressures may result in rapid and 
uneven tread wear, erratic vehicle handling and excessive heat build-up, which may result in tire 
failure.
It is impossible to determine if a tire is properly inflated just by looking at it.
Tire pressures listed on the vehicle certification label are considered to be the recommended cold 
tire inflation pressure, at maximum gross vehicle weight condition, measured when the tires are 
cold, after the vehicle has been parked for at least 3 hours or driven less than 3 miles (5 km). Tire 
pressures at normal opertaing conditions are shown in the table above.
When you drive for more than 3 miles (5 km), the tires, and the air inside them, warm up and it is 
normal for the tire pressure to increase above the recommended cold pressure. When checking tire 
pressure in this condition, never ‘bleed’ or reduce air pressure.
WARNING
If the vehicle has been parked in strong sunlight or used in high ambient temperatures, DO NOT 
reduce tire pressures; instead, move the vehicle into the shade and allow the tires to cool before 
checking.
NOTE: A hot tire at or below recommended cold inflation pressure is dangerously under-inflated.

DEFINITIONS:
•Curb Weight: minimum unladen vehicle weight plus a full fuel tank.
•Gross Vehicle Weight: maximum permissible weight of vehicle with driver, passengers, payload 
equipment and towing attachment load (where applicable)
NOTE: Axle weights are non-additive, i.e. maximum gross vehicle weight is not calculated by adding 
together maximum front and rear axle loads. The individual maximum axle weights and gross vehicle 
weight must not be exceeded.Approximate curb weights
- All vehicles 5379 - 5666 lb (2440 - 2570 kg)
Maximum gross vehicle weight
- All vehicles 6724 lb (3050 kg)
Maximum front axle load
- All vehicles 3373 lb (1530 kg)
Maximum rear axle load
- All vehicles  4078 lb (1850 kg)
