Frequently asked questions

What is the Td5 cylinder head and what does it do?
The Td5 cylinder head seals the top of the 2.5L five-cylinder turbo diesel engine block, forming the combustion chambers and housing the intake and exhaust valves. This is the later-type head, supplied complete with valves fitted, ready to take the camshaft, rocker gear and injectors.
How do I know if I need the later-type Td5 cylinder head?
The later-type Td5 head fits the Defender from VIN 2A622424 (1998-2006) and the Discovery 2 from VIN 1A736340 (1998-2004). Earlier engines use a different head, so check your VIN against these breakpoints before ordering.
Why do Td5 cylinder heads fail?
Td5 cylinder heads commonly crack between the valve seats or around the injector bores, often after overheating, and can suffer head gasket failure. Symptoms typically include coolant loss, white exhaust smoke and combustion pressure in the cooling system. A cracked head usually can't be reused.
Does this head come with valves, and is it a DIY fit?
Yes, this later-type Td5 head is supplied as a complete assembly with valves, seats and guides fitted. Fitting is a major job, typically for an experienced mechanic, and it's normal to renew the head bolts and gasket set rather than reuse the originals.
