Range Rover Sport L461 Engines for Sale | Engine Finders

The Range Rover Sport L461 (2022-present) replaced the L494, moving to the MLA-related platform shared with the L460 Range Rover and adopting electrified six-cylinder powertrains alongside a genuinely BMW-derived V8. For UK owners searching for a Range Rover Sport L461 engine replacement, this platform-sharing with the standard Range Rover is genuinely useful context - the same core engine families and much of the same specialist sourcing knowledge apply to both models. Engine Finders matches every Range Rover Sport L461 engine replacement to your confirmed badge and model year, given how the V8 in particular changed generation partway through L461 production.

Range Rover Sport L461 Replacement Engines

The L461 runs four core engine families, all shared with the L460 Range Rover:

  • D250 / D300 / D350 (2022-present) - 3.0L inline-6 mild-hybrid diesel, AJ300D family. Badge denotes state of tune rather than a different physical engine.
  • P400 / P380 (2022-present) - 3.0L inline-6 mild-hybrid petrol, AJ300 family. The core petrol option across the range.
  • P460e / P550e (2022-present) - 3.0L inline-6 plug-in hybrid. Badge changed from P440e/P510e for the 2024 model year - confirm your exact year, since hybrid hardware differs between them.
  • P530 / P615 (2022-present) - 4.4L twin-turbo V8, genuinely BMW-sourced. The N63 engine fitted 2022-2023 was replaced by the newer S68 from the 2024 model year.

Confirm your exact badge and model year before ordering - the V8's N63-to-S68 change in particular means two outwardly identical P530 badges can need different parts, and our team routinely helps owners work out which generation they actually have when the registration paperwork alone doesn't make it clear.

Range Rover Sport L461 Models & Engine Codes

Trim level maps fairly directly to engine family on the L461:

  • D250 serves as the accessible diesel entry point, with D300/D350 positioned higher for towing and performance.
  • P400/P380 covers the core petrol range for buyers preferring refinement over diesel torque.
  • P460e/P550e targets efficiency-focused and ULEZ-conscious buyers wanting electrified running.
  • P530/P615 sits at the top of the range, with P615 reserved for the highest-output SV-adjacent specification.

Given the V8's mid-production engine change, checking your exact model year against your VIN matters just as much as confirming the badge itself - two P530-badged Sport models built two years apart can genuinely need different cooling and harness components, even though the badge on the boot lid reads identically.

Buy Used and Second-Hand Range Rover Sport L461 Engines

We offer used, reconditioned, rebuilt and remanufactured units across the entire L461 engine range, from D250 through to P530/P615:

  • Used - given how new this platform still is, verified-provenance used engines are less common than on older Sport generations.
  • Reconditioned - the most popular choice, with 48V mild-hybrid ancillary checks included as standard.
  • Rebuilt - stripped and rebuilt to factory spec, particularly relevant for correctly matching V8 generation.
  • Remanufactured - the most thorough option for long-term ownership.

On the BMW-sourced V8 especially, correct model-year-matched parts matter significantly - our specialists confirm N63 versus S68 before any quote is finalised.

Stock generally favours the more common D250/D300 diesel and P400 petrol badges, while P530/P615 and PHEV variants are lower-volume and may need a slightly longer lead time. Every reconditioned L461 engine we supply includes:

  • 48V mild-hybrid ancillary checks across the D250/D300/D350 and P400/P380 range
  • Model-year-matched cooling and harness parts on V8 units, reflecting the N63-to-S68 change
  • PHEV battery and drive-unit compatibility confirmed on P460e/P550e
  • New gaskets, seals and oil pump on every rebuild

Every unit is bench-tested before it leaves our network, confirmed against your exact badge and model year.

Warranty for Replacement Range Rover Sport L461 Engines

All reconditioned and rebuilt L461 engines come with the same standard of cover, whether you're running a D250 diesel or the flagship P530/P615 V8:

  • 12-month, unlimited-mileage warranty
  • UK-wide supply and fit network
  • Bench-test verification before dispatch

⚙️ Range Rover Sport L461 Engine Works: How Experts Rebuild Engines

When your engine fails, Range Rover Sport L461 engine works can restore performance at a fraction of the cost of a brand-new engine. Every Range Rover Sport L461 rebuild starts by confirming your exact badge and model year. From full diagnostics to rebuild, here's how experts ensure your Range Rover Sport L461 engine works delivers optimal results, every time.

1. Diagnostics: Every Range Rover Sport L461 rebuild begins with full diagnostics - compression testing, oil pressure checks and a complete scan - to confirm your exact badge, model year and the specific cause of failure. On V8 models this includes confirming whether you have the N63 or S68 generation before ordering any parts.

2. Strip-Down: Once confirmed, the engine undergoes complete disassembly, with every component inspected against the correct tolerances for that specific engine family - AJ300D diesel, AJ300 petrol, or the BMW-sourced V8.

3. Wear-Point Rebuild: Documented family-level wear points are addressed as standard, including 48V mild-hybrid ancillary checks on D250/D300/D350 and P400/P380 builds, and generation-specific cooling components on P530/P615.

4. Reassembly: The engine is reassembled to original equipment torque specification throughout, with new gaskets, seals and oil pump fitted as standard on every Range Rover Sport L461 rebuild.

5. Bench Testing: Before any engine leaves our network, it undergoes hot and cold cycle bench testing to confirm stable idle, correct oil pressure and proper torque delivery - verifying in practice what the rebuild was designed to achieve.

6. Warranty & Dispatch: A 12-month, unlimited-mileage warranty is applied to every engine before UK-wide dispatch, giving confirmed cover from the moment your replacement arrives, regardless of which of the four engine families your build required.

Frequently Asked Questions - Range Rover Sport L461 Engines
What engines does the Range Rover Sport L461 use?

The Range Rover Sport L461 runs D250/D300/D350 mild-hybrid diesel, P400/P380 mild-hybrid petrol, P460e/P550e plug-in hybrid, and the P530/P615 BMW-sourced 4.4L twin-turbo V8 - the same core engine families as the L460 Range Rover, reflecting the two models' shared MLA-related platform. This shared architecture means specialist knowledge built up on one model transfers directly to the other. Always confirm your exact badge and model year, particularly for the V8, which changed generation partway through L461 production.

Does the L461 share engines with the Range Rover L460?

Yes - both the Range Rover Sport L461 and the Range Rover L460 use the AJ300/AJ300D 3.0L inline-6 family for diesel and petrol variants, and the same BMW-sourced V8 for the flagship petrol option, since the two models share the related MLA platform introduced from 2022. This is a genuine advantage if you're comparing suppliers, since parts sourcing and rebuild expertise for the D250, P400 and P530/P615 apply equally to either vehicle.

How much does a Range Rover Sport L461 engine replacement cost?

Reconditioned Range Rover Sport L461 engine pricing starts from £5,200 for the P400/P380 petrol, £6,500 for the D250 diesel, and £9,500 for the P530/P615 BMW-sourced V8, reflecting its greater complexity and the need for model-year-matched parts given the N63-to-S68 transition. PHEV (P460e/P550e) scope should always be confirmed at quote stage. All come with a 12-month unlimited-mileage warranty as standard.

Is the L461 P530/P615 V8 a genuine Land Rover engine?

No - the P530/P615 V8 fitted to the Range Rover Sport L461 is genuinely BMW-sourced, the same as on the L460 Range Rover, under a combustion and electrified powertrain partnership JLR agreed with BMW. Confirm your exact model year before ordering, since the underlying BMW engine changed from the N63 to the newer S68 partway through L461 production, and the two generations require different cooling and 48V mild-hybrid harness parts.

What is the difference between L461 and L494?

The L461 (2022-present) replaced the L494 (2013-2022) with a completely different platform and engine range - the two generations do not share engine families, so confirming which one you have is essential before ordering any replacement. The L494 ran TDV6/SDV6/SDV8 diesel and Si4/SD4 Ingenium four-cylinder units, while the L461 moved to the AJ300/AJ300D architecture shared with the L460 Range Rover.

Does the PHEV badge change matter for engine replacement (P440e vs P460e)?

The underlying 3.0L combustion engine is closely related across the PHEV badge changes, but the electric drive unit, battery and charging hardware differ by model year - the badge changed from P440e/P510e to P460e/P550e for the 2024 model year. Always confirm your exact build before ordering, since a reconditioned engine quote for one badge doesn't automatically cover the hybrid hardware differences of the other.

What warranty comes with a reconditioned Range Rover Sport L461 engine?

A 12-month, unlimited-mileage warranty applies as standard to every reconditioned or rebuilt Range Rover Sport L461 engine, regardless of badge - whether that's a D250 diesel or the flagship P530/P615 V8. As Engine Finders operates as a price comparison marketplace rather than a direct supplier, exact terms and any specific exclusions are set by your chosen vetted UK supplier and confirmed at the point you accept a quote.

How do I confirm my exact Range Rover Sport L461 engine code?

Your engine code is encoded in your VIN, which our team can help check against your registration details. For V8 models especially, confirm your exact build year, since the N63-to-S68 switch changed related cooling and harness parts even though the P530/P615 badge stayed the same. Don't rely on the trim badge alone for a model with this much mid-production variation.

Can I fit a used engine instead of reconditioned on my Range Rover Sport L461?

Used engines are available but carry more risk, particularly on the complex BMW-sourced V8 where correct N63 or S68 identification matters. Most L461 owners choose reconditioned or rebuilt units instead for the warranty and verified condition - reconditioned D250/D300 units start from £6,500, with the P530/P615 V8 from £9,500 given its added complexity.

How much is a reconditioned Range Rover Sport L461 engine?

Reconditioned Range Rover Sport L461 engine cost ranges from £5,200 for P400/P380 petrol up to £9,500 for the P530/P615 BMW-sourced V8, with D250 diesel typically around £6,500. Exact pricing depends on your confirmed badge, model year, and current parts availability. Get a specific quote matched to your exact build and confirmed engine code, and every option comes with our standard 12-month unlimited-mileage warranty regardless of which badge your Range Rover Sport L461 requires.
