Additional Notes

  • Both the 4.0 V8i and 4.6 V8i configurations share an identical power steering fluid capacity of 2.9 liters, which represents a full system fill volume for the rack-and-pinion or recirculating-ball steering assembly including the reservoir and lines.
  • The Land Rover Discovery 2 4.0 V8i carries a specified check interval of every 20,000 km or 12 months, whichever comes first, under normal use conditions.
  • A check interval rather than a change interval is listed for the 4.0 V8i, meaning the specification calls for inspecting fluid level and condition at that mileage or time threshold rather than a full drain-and-refill service.
  • The 4.0 V8i covers model years 1998-2003, while the 4.6 V8i is associated with model years 2002-2004, producing a two-year overlap period during which both engine displacements were available in the Land Rover Discovery 2 L318 lineup for the USA market.
  • No check or change interval figure appears in the 4.6 V8i row, whereas the 4.0 V8i row includes the 20,000 km/12-month check interval under normal use conditions.
