Cylinder Head Gasket for the 2.5L 200TDi and 300TDi diesel engines, supplied in the 1.3mm compressed-thickness grade (identified by a single hole).

The gasket seals the joint between the cylinder head and block, containing combustion pressure and isolating the coolant and oil galleries that cross the deck face. Head gaskets for these engines are graded by thickness and selected to match piston protrusion above the block deck; this is the single-hole 1.3mm grade.

Frequently asked questions

What is the ERR5261 head gasket and what does it do?
The ERR5261 is the cylinder head gasket for the 2.5L 200TDi and 300TDi diesel engines, supplied in the 1.3mm grade identified by a single hole. It seals the joint between the head and block, containing combustion pressure and separating the coolant and oil galleries across the deck face.
What does the 1.3mm single-hole grade mean, and how do I pick the right one?
The 1.3mm single-hole marking is the gasket's compressed-thickness grade. On the 200TDi and 300TDi, head gaskets are graded by thickness and chosen to match piston protrusion above the block deck. Measure piston protrusion, or match the hole count of your original gasket, before ordering.
Which vehicles does the ERR5261 fit?
The ERR5261 fits the 2.5L 200TDi and 300TDi Defender (1987-2006), Discovery 1 (200TDi from VIN LA081991, 300TDi from VIN MA081992), and Range Rover Classic (1992-1994). Confirm your engine is a TDi and check the correct thickness grade for your build.
What are the signs of head gasket failure on a TDi?
A failed head gasket on the 2.5L 200TDi or 300TDi typically shows as coolant loss, white exhaust smoke, oil and coolant mixing, or pressurisation of the cooling system, often after overheating. Always renew the gasket to the correct thickness grade when the head is removed.
