Additional Notes

  • All three configurations listed for the Land Rover Discovery 4 L319 (EU) share an identical manual transmission fluid capacity of 1.6 liters, indicating a consistent gearbox unit across the 2.7 TDV6 and 5.0 V8 engine variants covered in these specifications.
  • A 1.6-liter fill quantity is a relatively modest capacity, typical of a compact manual transmission housing where fluid volume is constrained by the unit's physical dimensions rather than a large sump or reservoir design.
  • The service interval across all listed configurations is 240,000 km or 120 months, whichever comes first. At 120 months, the time-based limit equals a full decade of ownership before a fluid change is due under normal use conditions.
  • The 240,000 km distance threshold is an extended-life interval, reflecting a fluid specification capable of maintaining lubrication and gear protection over a high accumulated mileage without requiring earlier replacement under normal use.
  • All three rows carry a normal use condition designation, meaning the 240,000 km / 120-month interval applies specifically to standard operating environments rather than severe-duty cycles such as frequent towing, extreme temperatures, or off-road use.
  • The 2.7 TDV6 appears in two separate configurations: one without a diesel particulate filter and one with a DPF designation. Despite the difference in exhaust aftertreatment hardware, both share the same 1.6-liter capacity and identical service interval, indicating the DPF fitment has no bearing on manual transmission fluid specifications.
  • The 5.0 V8 variant carries the same 1.6-liter capacity and 240,000 km / 120-month interval as the diesel configurations, despite the substantially different engine displacement and power output, pointing to a shared transmission assembly across the petrol and diesel drivetrains in the L319 range.
