Frequently asked questions

What is the LJQ500020 timing cover gasket used for?
The LJQ500020 timing cover gasket seals the joint between the timing cover and the engine on the 4.4 AJ petrol V8. It keeps oil in and contaminants out at the front of the engine. Fits the Discovery 3, Range Rover L322 and Range Rover Sport L320.
Which engine and models does this gasket fit?
This gasket fits the 4.4 AJ petrol V8 in the Discovery 3 (2005-2009), Range Rover L322 and Range Rover Sport L320, plus the 4.2 supercharged V8 on the L322 and L320 Sport. Confirm your engine is one of these AJ V8 petrols before ordering.
Why does a timing cover gasket fail on these V8 engines?
Timing cover gaskets typically fail as the material hardens and shrinks with age and heat cycling, causing oil weeps at the front of the AJ V8. It's usually renewed whenever the timing cover is removed for chain or front-cover work, since reusing an old gasket risks a repeat leak.
