The Range Rover 11 K2A is a 1,997 cc, inline‑four turbocharged petrol engine produced between 2017 and 2023. It features direct fuel injection, dual overhead camshafts (DOHC), and a twin‑scroll turbocharger. In standard form it delivers 221 kW (300 PS) and 400 Nm of torque, enabling strong mid‑range response and refined performance.
Fitted to models such as the L494 Range Rover Sport and L460 Range Rover, including the P300 and P360 trims, the 11 K2A was engineered for resp…
Production years 2017–2019 meet Euro 6d-TEMP standards; 2020–2023 models comply with Euro 6d .
The Range Rover 11 K2A is a 1,997 cc inline‑four turbocharged petrol engineered for premium SUV applications (2017–2023). It combines direct injection with a twin‑scroll turbocharger to deliver responsive torque and smooth high‑rpm power. Designed to meet Euro 6d-TEMP and Euro 6d emissions standards, it balances performance with regulatory compliance.

The Range Rover 11 K2A was used across Land Rover's L494 and L460 platforms with longitudinal mounting and shared with Jaguar for transverse applications in the F-Pace. This engine received platform-specific adaptations—reinforced engine mounts in the L460 and revised cooling routing in the L494—and from 2020 the facelifted L494 adopted updated timing components, creating interchange limits. Partnerships allowed Jaguar's 2.0 Ingenium P300 units to share core architecture. All adaptations are documented in OEM technical bulletins.
Engine Finders UK Ltd, which operates EngineCode.uk, can pass your enquiry to engine suppliers in the UK. The service is for vehicles in the United Kingdom, with UK delivery or fitting. This is a commercially connected service, and sending an enquiry does not confirm diagnosis or compatibility.
Diagnostic reminder: If a technician has recommended replacing the engine, you can send an enquiry to engine suppliers in the UK. Confirm the diagnosis first: an engine-code record does not diagnose a fault.
Field reports and technical service bulletins highlight component wear patterns under high-load operation. Adherence to manufacturer service intervals and approved fluid specifications is critical for long-term reliability.

The most common questions about engine codes, what they mean, how to find them and how this database works
The 11 K2A offers strong performance and refinement, but early models (2017–2019) had timing tensioner concerns. Post-2020 revisions improved durability. With proper maintenance—especially oil changes using 0W-20 STJLR.03.5034—well-cared-for examples can exceed 200,000 km reliably.
Top issues include timing chain tensioner wear, GPF clogging from short trips, high-pressure fuel pump failures, and turbo actuator faults. These are documented in Land Rover SIB LTB00454(22) and TIS service procedures. Oil and driving pattern significantly influence longevity.
The 11 K2A powers the Range Rover Sport (L494, 2017–2023) in P300/P360 trims and the new Range Rover (L460, 2022–2023) P360. It’s also used in the Jaguar F-Pace P300 (2018–2023). All meet Euro 6d emissions with GPF and twin-scroll turbocharging.
Aftermarket ECU tuning is common on the 11-K2A platform, but increasing boost or altering engine parameters accelerates component wear, impacts emissions compliance, and may void vehicle warranties. Any modifications should be evaluated carefully by a qualified specialist.
In a Range Rover Sport P300, expect ~9.8 L/100km (city) and ~7.2 L/100km (highway), or ~29 mpg UK combined. Real-world mixed driving typically yields 25–32 mpg UK. P360 models consume slightly more due to higher output and vehicle weight.
Yes. The 11 K2A is an interference engine. If the timing chain jumps or fails, piston-to-valve contact can cause catastrophic damage. Prompt attention to any chain rattle or timing-related fault codes is essential to prevent engine destruction.
Land Rover specifies 0W-20 synthetic oil meeting STJLR.03.5034 (or newer). This low-viscosity, low-SAPS oil protects the GPF and ensures proper tensioner lubrication. Change intervals should not exceed 16,000 km or 12 months.
