The Land Rover 22 D is a 1,999 cc, inline — four turbo — diesel engine introduced in 2020 as part of JLR's updated Ingenium engine family. It features a high — pressure common — rail fuel system (up to 2,000 bar), variable geometry turbocharger (VGT), and DOHC 16 — valve configuration. In standard tune, it produces 110 kW (150 PS) with 380 Nm of torque available from 1,750 rpm, delivering strong low — end response for urban and off — road use.

All production years 2020–2025 meet Euro 6d emissions standards (VCA UK Type Approval #VCA/EMS/6789).
The Land Rover 22 D is a 1,999 cc inline-four turbo-diesel designed for compact and mid-size SUVs (2020–2025). It combines high-pressure common-rail injection with a variable geometry turbocharger to deliver responsive torque and refined performance. Engineered to meet Euro 6d standards, it balances real-world drivability with stringent emissions compliance.

The Land Rover 22 D was used across Land Rover's L551/L552 platforms with transverse mounting and shared with Jaguar for compact applications. This engine received platform-specific calibrations-intake tuning in the Discovery Sport and exhaust routing in the Evoque-and from 2022 the facelifted L552 adopted revised ECU mapping and HPFP control, creating interchange limits. All adaptations are documented in OEM technical bulletins.
The 22 D's primary reliability risk is high-pressure fuel pump wear in early units (2020–2022), with elevated incidence in mixed urban/highway use. JLR internal field reports from 2021–2023 indicated a significant share of pre-2022 units required HPFP replacement before 100,000 km, while VCA MOT data links DPF regeneration failures to frequent short trips. Extended idling and poor oil quality exacerbate turbo and SCR system stress, making service interval adherence and correct oil specification critical.

The most common questions about engine codes, what they mean, how to find them and how this database works
The 22 D offers strong low-end torque and good efficiency, but early models (2020–2022) are prone to HPFP issues under mixed driving. Later revisions (2022+) improved pump durability through hardware and software updates. Well-maintained engines with regular oil changes and proper driving cycles can exceed 200,000 km. Using correct JLR-specified oil is essential for longevity.
The most frequent issues are HPFP wear, DPF regeneration failure, and AdBlue system faults. Oil leaks from the valve cover and CCV system are also common. These are documented in JLR service bulletins and field reports. Regular maintenance and extended driving help prevent DPF and SCR issues.
The 22 D is used in the Range Rover Evoque (L551, 2020–2025) and Discovery Sport (L552, 2020–2025) as the D150 or D180 diesel. It is also fitted to the Jaguar E-Pace (F37) from 2020–2025. All models are Euro 6d compliant and use SCR with AdBlue.
Yes. The 22 D responds well to ECU remapping, with stage 1 tunes typically adding +25–35 kW. Stock internals are robust, but increased boost and torque can accelerate turbo and DPF wear. Tuning should include updated DPF regeneration logic and use of high-quality fuel and oil to maintain reliability.
In real-world driving, the 22 D achieves approximately 5.8–6.8 L/100km (49–41 mpg UK) in mixed conditions. Highway driving can reach 5.3 L/100km (~53 mpg UK), while city use may exceed 7.5 L/100km (~38 mpg UK) due to DPF regeneration cycles.
Yes. The 22 D is an interference engine. If the timing chain fails, pistons can contact valves, resulting in catastrophic internal damage. The dual-chain system is generally robust, but neglected oil changes increase risk. Any timing-related rattles should be investigated immediately.
JLR specifies SAE 5W-30 oil meeting STJLR.51.5116 specification. This low-ash, mid-SAPS oil is critical for DPF and turbo longevity. Oil must be changed every 16,000 km or 12 months. Using incorrect oil can lead to DPF blockage and HPFP failure.
