Hi

Can anyone provide a rough cost of a decent independent replacing the 2 aux belts and all tensioner? I would use OEM as LR branded items seem typically expensive.

I would have the water pump and alternator also replaced as a precautionary measure.

Everything works but my squeel is lasting longer. The belt looks in great condition with no wear. 2012 4.4 TDV8 Vogue Santorini black ivory leather

Personally I’d recommend and did on mine genuine LR tensioner, pulleys and water pump. Dayco belt and Denso alternator.

Give GlenRands in Liphook a call - several folk on here use them, including me, and always find them good. They have always supplied/fitted good quality kit for me. TDV8 4.4 2012

I paid £1,175 inc VAT in April 2021 for all the belts, pullies, tensioners and the water pump to be changed, all using OEM (or closest available equivalent) parts at Keith Gott near Alton, Hants. That included 4.5 hours labour and changing the coolant. Here are the parts (note this is for a 4.2SC so probably different for a diesel):



I'd definitely include the water pump as it's worth doing whilst its all apart.

I just paid £1,100 for the same work to be done on my Disco 4

Some months ago mine's radiator was leaking from the seam under the top hose connection so as well as the radiator, I also replaced all the hoses in the V. Several of the plastic sections crumbled during removal indicating that they wouldn't have lasted much longer even though the engine cover hasn't been fitted since I purchased the vehicle at 19K kms.

DrF, as your also in the SE would you mind sharing who you used please?

I haven't seen reference to replacing the alternator, is it worth replacing in the absence of any issues whilst access is so easy? My car has done 96000 miles and is a very well looked after car. 2012 4.4 TDV8 Vogue Santorini black ivory leather

Most of the cost for this job is in the time it takes to remove the fan assembly to gain access so there is a very good argument for replacing everything that can fail. Belts, pulleys, tensioner, alternator, AC compressor, oil pump seals, water pump.
I regret not insisting they changed the Alternator last time I had the AC compressor, belt and tensioner done and am now contemplating getting it done for peace of mind. 2012 TDV8 Vogue (L322)
