Additional Notes

  • Both the 4.0 V8i and 4.6 V8i engines share an identical automatic transmission fluid capacity of 9.7 liters, measured as a dry fill figure.
  • A dry fill capacity represents the total fluid volume required when filling a completely empty transmission, such as after a full overhaul or replacement, rather than a routine drain-and-refill service, which typically recovers a smaller volume.
  • The Land Rover Discovery 2 L318 (USA) automatic transmission carries a normal-use service interval of 30,000 miles across both engine configurations.
  • The 4.0 V8i covers model years 1998-2003, while the 4.6 V8i covers 2002-2004, meaning both variants were in production simultaneously during 2002-2003 with identical transmission fluid specifications.
