Frequently asked questions

What does the ERR6954 connecting rod bolt do?

The ERR6954 connecting rod bolt clamps the big-end bearing cap to the connecting rod around the crankshaft journal on the Td5 engine. Working as a matched set, these bolts hold the rod assembly together under combustion and inertia loads. Land Rover number ERR6954L.

How many connecting rod bolts are needed for a rebuild?

Connecting rod bolts are used two per connecting rod, so a full set depends on your engine, typically ten bolts across the five-cylinder Td5. They're normally replaced as a complete set during a bottom-end rebuild rather than singly. Order the quantity to match all rods being worked on.

Can connecting rod bolts be reused?

Connecting rod bolts are typically treated as single-use and should be replaced whenever the big-end caps are disturbed. These bolts are torqued to a stretch specification, so reusing them risks losing clamp load and a big-end failure. Fit new bolts and torque them to the workshop manual specification.

Does this bolt fit any Freelander 1 diesel?

On the Freelander 1 this bolt fits the 2.0L Rover L-series diesel only, not the later BMW M47 TD4 engine. It also covers the 2.5L Td5 in the Defender and Discovery 2. Check which diesel engine your vehicle has before ordering, as the L-series and TD4 bottom ends differ.
