When the phrase “English gentleman” is uttered, the first concepts and names that come to mind are “English suit”, “Manchester United”, “Queen of England”, “English tea at five o clock”, “English ale” and Land Rover.

Regarding the latter, this brand was founded in 1948, and in 2018 it already celebrates its 70th anniversary.

This company began its journey with the utilitarian Center Street SUV, which did not pamper consumers with interior trim or frills in terms of comfort. However, this did not reduce its popularity, and it was this model that became the starting point for the company.

Today, evaluating the lineup and finishing Land salons Rover, some people don't even know what the model was at the very start.

Modern Land Rover is unconditional comfort, impeccable design, excellent driving performance and, of course, status.

For the owner of Land Rover car like a well-tailored classic English suit. Everything is true to size, comfortable and never goes out of style. But the suit requires care and quite careful and individual care. Land Rover cars must be treated the same way, with an individual approach and quality service. And maintenance materials are like materials for a suit; how long the suit will last depends on the quality of the fabric. The rigor in the design of the car is projected into the rigor in the choice of materials for maintenance. Materials must meet the strict requirements of the manufacturer. British designers are well aware of product quality German manufacturers. High-quality German fuels and lubricants allow us to achieve maximum reliability of Land Rover vehicle units.

Depending on the Land models Rover and year of manufacture must be selected to suit the most suitable option motor oil.

In the LIQUI MOLY arsenal, Land Rover owners are offered wide choose products, regardless of the level of equipment of the car and the year of its manufacture.

Until recently Land company Rover used FORD to standardize its tolerances.

FORD motor oil specifications:

Ford: WSS-M2C 913-D (Jaguar / Land Rover: STJLR.03.5003)

Introduced in 2012, oils of this approval are recommended for all diesel engines Ford engines excluding models manufactured before 2009. Products meeting this approval are especially recommended in applications where M2C913-B or M2C913-C oils were previously used. Extended oil change intervals and use in conjunction with biodiesel or high-sulfur fuel are acceptable. Oil Liqui Moly GmbH that meets these requirements: HC synthetic motor oil.

Ford WSS-M2C948-B (Jaguar / Land Rover: STJLR.03.5004)

Based on ACEA class C2, this approval requires 5W20 oil with reduced soot formation (Low SAPS). Contains in-house testing for fuel economy and piston deposit control. Oils that meet the approval must provide additional fuel savings of 0.9% compared to regular oils 5W-20.

Liqui oil Moly GmbH that meets these requirements: HC synthetic motor oil.

Ford WSS-M2C934-A

Oil with extended drain interval for diesel vehicles particulate filter(DPF). Liqui Moly GmbH oil that meets these requirements: HC synthetic motor oil

For example, you can consider Discovery 4 3.0 TDV6 DPF.2013-2016

For the engine: the product allows you to use the full potential of the engine and at the same time take care of the environment.

All of the above products are of high quality and provide maximum reliability operation.

A true gentleman, he is always sure that he can drive his car to fox hunting and to a business meeting. And he will never be late due to a car breakdown.

Customers often ask what kind of oil they should use? Naturally, everything Land owners Rover knows to use Castrol brand oil.

If we talk about the brand, then you must understand one thing, each manufacturer of a particular model has one or another joint event to promote its product, and on mutually beneficial terms they promote this or that brand, for example oil.

As for Castrol, they and Land Rover carry out a lot of joint activities in the development of their two businesses, and therefore Land Rover recommends pouring Castrol oil and certain brands.

But the original source is not what is positioned by Land Rover's marketing, but the original source is technical documentation and specifications, and that is why, if you look into certain Land Rover technical support documentation, then there is no Castrol brand there, there is a certain specification of engine oil. And this specification is the original source.

Land Rover directly uses ford specification. At each manufacturer's plant, when it manufactures a particular engine, it establishes what properties and what requirements the engine oil should have and issues its corresponding specification. The specification is “Mercedes”, there is “BMW”, there is “Toyota”, there is also “Ford”. So, all the engines that are produced for the Land Rover company, in particular we are talking about the 2.2 TD diesel engine on the Freelander 2, it is produced by the PSA concern (Peugeot-Citroen), and the Ford specification is installed there, but the same engine (2, 2 TD) are also installed on some Mersedes models, but Mersedes does not always state that Castrol oil needs to be filled. Mercedes has its own branded oil or you can fill it in, for example, mobil oil. Therefore, the primary source is the specification of the manufacturer of this engine.

The oil specification looks like a set of symbols. Do not confuse the specification with the classification of oils. Classification is somewhat different, there is different standards classifications: European, American, there are also some united groups of oil companies.

So here is the manufacturer's specification for oil, in particular for Freelander 2 with a 2.2 TD diesel engine without a particulate filter, and for Russian market models are supplied only without a particulate filter; cars with a particulate filter are supplied only to Europe, where the following Ford specification is used 5W/30 – WSS – M2C913B or C.

Now that you know this specification, You can choose any brand of oils. In order to make sure that this manufacturer conscientious, high-quality and responsible oils, you can look on the label to see if this Ford specification is among all the listed specifications; if so, then this oil You can use.

But we, employees of the LR-WEST service, do not joke with these things. If Land Rover recommends Castrol with a viscosity of 5W/30, then we do not offer clients any other brands, because if some kind of malfunction occurs with the engine, the client may suspect that this is due to some other oil.

So regarding motor oil: You can choose any brand for yourself as long as this Ford specification is indicated, because there are manufacturers of motor oils that are much cheaper than Castrol, but they meet all these specifications.

I would like to draw your attention to some more issues regarding motor oils. There are several myths about motor oils.

Myth No. 1. The oil in the engine and gearbox should not darken, but should remain light throughout its entire service life.
This is wrong. All modern oils have a range of all possible additives that are designed to suppress foam, resist wear, etc. Also, these additives have one very important function: engine flushing. And it is precisely because of these properties that the oil in the engine darkens, because over time the oil absorbs accumulated dirt, washing it away from the walls of the engine. THIS ESPECIALLY CONCERNES DIESEL ENGINES! Very often I had to deal with dissatisfied customers - who returned with a complaint that they had not changed his oil - then I had to conduct an experiment with the customers - he stood next to another car - they changed the oil in front of him - started the engine, and then looked at the freshly replaced oil on the dipstick - which It turned out to be exactly the same in the dark as the old one!!! This is a feature of diesel engines! In particular, on the diesel 2.2 TD on Freelander 2

Other myths...

Myth No. 2. Motor oils practically do not differ from each other, so you can pour the cheapest
Motor oils vary greatly in their properties. It is very important to select oil according to the engine manufacturer's specifications. Be sure to pay attention to parameters such as base, viscosity and additives.

Myth No. 3. The oil needs to be changed every 5000 km, otherwise it will not work properly
This statement is old-fashioned. All current motor oils meet the requirements modern engines and they can be used throughout the entire service interval.

Myth No. 4. It is imperative to fill in engine oil only of the brand specified by the vehicle manufacturer
This has been written about in detail above. You can fill in oil of any brand and brand, the main thing is that it meets the specifications specified in the technical documentation.

Myth No. 5. To improve the properties of the oil, you can add an additive to it
Do not do this under any circumstances. This statement is from the 70s, when motor oils were not very high quality. This may have helped in the past.

All modern oils have a very precise formula for certain engines and certain operating conditions. If you unauthorizedly add any additives to the oil, you will upset this balance (this formula) and can ruin the engine.
Myth No. 6. Modern motor oils do not wear out Changing the oil in the engine or gearbox is regulated by the manufacturer for a reason. Anything, even the most modern oil , over time loses its properties and does not provide necessary protection rubbing mechanisms. This is due to the impact on it

high temperatures , which are present in our engine, and over time the oil gradually becomes contaminated with all possible mechanical impurities. Myth No. 7.
Quality oil
