Land Rover Td5 Multi-Layer Metal & Composite Cylinder Head Gaskets

Ensure a reliable, high-performance, and leak-free seal for your Land Rover Td5 engine with our range of precision-engineered cylinder head gaskets. Available in the correct factory thickness grades, these gaskets are essential for matching your engine's precise machining tolerances, maintaining correct compression, and preventing head gasket failure under demanding driving conditions.

Whether you are carrying out routine engine maintenance, a full rebuild, or replacing a skimmed cylinder head on your Defender or Discovery 2, choosing the right thickness grade is critical.

Key Features

• Correct Factory Thickness Grades: Available in 1-hole, 2-hole, and 3-hole options to accommodate exact piston protrusion measurements after block or head skimming.
• Advanced Multi-Layer Construction: Manufactured to exacting OEM standards to withstand high turbo boost pressures, extreme temperatures, and heavy-duty off-road use.
• Reliable Thermal & Pressure Sealing: Engineered to handle the unique high-pressure unit injector environment of the Td5 powerplant.

Available Options & Part Numbers

Select the correct gasket grade based on your measured piston protrusion:

• 1-Hole: Thinnest grade, used for minimal piston protrusion or light block surfacing.
• 2-Hole: Standard mid-range factory replacement grade.
• 3-Hole: Thickest standard grade, used when pistons protrude further or after extensive block/head machining.

Vehicle Compatibility

• Land Rover Defender: Td5 models (1998–2006)
• Land Rover Discovery 2: Td5 models (1998–2004)

Important Workshop Tip: Always measure your piston protrusion accurately using a dial gauge across all cylinders before selecting your thickness grade. Additionally, Td5 cylinder head bolts are torque-to-yield (stretch) fasteners and must always be replaced with new bolts whenever the cylinder head is removed.
