Frequently asked questions

What does the RTC4477 oil pump repair kit do?
The RTC4477 oil pump repair kit reconditions the engine oil pump and its pressure relief valve on the 3.5 litre V8 petrol engine. It restores oil delivery and regulated pressure to the lubrication circuit without replacing the complete pump assembly.
Which vehicles and engines does this kit cover?
This kit covers the 3.5 litre V8 petrol engine in the Land Rover Defender from 1987, Discovery 1 with the twin carburettor V8, and Range Rover Classic from 1986 to 1991 in both EFI and twin carburettor form. Confirm your engine is the 3.5 litre V8 before ordering.
Where is the oil pump located on the Rover V8?
The oil pump on the Rover V8 sits in the front cover of the engine, driven from the front of the crankshaft. Reaching it typically means removing the front cover, so the job is usually combined with timing chain or front seal work while the engine front is stripped.
What are the signs a V8 oil pump needs attention?
Low or fluctuating oil pressure, particularly a warning light at hot idle, is the usual sign. On the Rover V8 a worn pump or a sticking pressure relief valve typically causes pressure to drop as the oil thins with heat. Rule out a failed sender and worn bearings first.
