Crankshaft - 2.5L Diesel & Petrol is the forged steel crankshaft for the Land Rover 2.5L 4-cylinder engine family, converting the reciprocating motion of the pistons into rotational output.

The crankshaft runs in five main bearings in the cylinder block and drives the oil pump, timing gears, and (via the flywheel) the clutch and gearbox. It is machined to accept standard-size main and big-end bearing shells. This crankshaft is common across the 2.5L naturally aspirated diesel, 2.5L petrol, 2.5L turbo diesel, and 200Tdi variants, making it a suitable replacement during a full engine rebuild on any of these applications.

Frequently asked questions

What is the ERR1181 crankshaft and what does it do?
The ERR1181 is the forged-steel crankshaft for the Land Rover 2.5L 4-cylinder engine. It runs in five main bearings and turns piston movement into rotation, driving the oil pump, timing gears, and flywheel. It's machined for standard-size main and big-end bearing shells.
Which 2.5L engines does this crankshaft fit?
This crankshaft is shared across the 2.5L naturally aspirated diesel, 2.5L petrol, 2.5L turbo diesel, and 200Tdi engines, so it suits a rebuild on any of them. It fits the Defender (1987-2006), Discovery 1 (1989-1998), and Range Rover Classic 200Tdi.
Do I need new bearings when fitting this crankshaft?
Fit fresh main and big-end bearing shells whenever you install this crankshaft, as it's machined for standard-size shells. A crankshaft change is part of a full engine rebuild, so the bearings, seals, and gaskets are typically renewed at the same time.
