In this episode we give our new to us 2015 Range Rover L405 TDV8 a full fluid service. We change differential oil, automatic gearbox 8HP oil, engine oil and do other various service tasks like diesel filter, cabin filter and air filter change. We do not cover the transfer case in this video but it it the same as on the LR4 and LR3 and you find many other videos on our channel about it.
We also talk about the service intervall from Land Rover.
We are not liable for any harm you do to your car, your engine, your surroundings or yourself. Use the information given in this video at your own risk.
Thanks for watching,

ha ha the Oil for the engine!! this is why you suck out the engine oil. made me laugh
I know how you feel. It's nearly down to13C here in Melbourne Oz.
Just looking underneath this L405 and its aluminium construction gives a very rare feeling of optimism about modern engineering and production methods. The Queen is 9 years old and looks like its barely a few months old simply due to its long term sustainable componant materials which suggests its toatlly different to previous generations that rust away….. Is this a dateless life long companion?
And three Germans speaking perfect English shame on us brits
And then you have to recalibrate the gearbox for the new oil aaaaaaaaargh
How ridiculous that the design makes you completely replace an oil pan with an oil change
Just as stupid as a fill method that requires you to pump in fluid till it overflows
What are they thinking
Enjoy all you do together, educative with the right approach.
Concerning the Diesel filter, 24K miles, lets say 40K km. is in my opinion overkill if you always refill at the bigger gas stations in Europe.
Our diesel is so clean the filter can last 100K km without problems.
The maintenance schedule from the manufacturers is based on diesel in very remote, less developed countries .
Open the old Diesel filter and check it for debris.
Keep on going the good work !
My everyday car is a 1994 Range Rover Classic 300TDI Auto 275,000miles. It gets me from A to B in the same time as everyone else on the road.
i found this video very very interesting i like how you research to find good service recommendations and it makes me wanna tackle my own servicing on a range rover if i had one, i own a old Series IIa SWB landrover and i do all my own work and rebuilt the engine back in 2012 very easy to do compared to the more technical 2.7l diesel in the disco, my mothers toyota corolla is barely near 100,000km and im wanting to service the trans fluid even though the dealer said oh nah we dont service that its filled for life garbage and im like nah i dont think so… the same went with some Briggs & Stratton mower engines filled for life and it was not its just a gimmick so lazy Americans didint have to drain and refill the oil on them.
but i think your videos give landrover and other owners the confidence to do their own work if they know a few things about engines etc.
Another great Video from you both, look forward to the next one.
