Frequently asked questions

What does the gearbox oil catcher (TKC5779L) do?
The oil catcher is an internal lubrication component of the 5-speed manual gearbox. It collects lubricant thrown off the rotating gears and channels it into the oilways feeding the mainshaft and bearings, keeping the internal shafts lubricated while the gearbox runs.
Which Land Rovers use this gearbox oil catcher?
It fits the 5-speed manual gearbox used in the Defender (1987-2006), Discovery 1, and Range Rover Classic. Because it's a transmission-internal part, confirm your gearbox type before ordering.
When is the gearbox oil catcher usually replaced?
The oil catcher is usually replaced during a 5-speed gearbox rebuild or overhaul, since reaching it means splitting the box. It's worth renewing while the gearbox is apart to keep the internal oil feed working correctly.
