DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION Full flow filter
Approximately 10% of the total oil flow enters the centrifuge pot through a side port in the pot casting which is
mated to an outlet port at the lower side of the oil cooler housing. A rubber’O’ring sits in a recess around the oil
cooler port which seals the faces between the centrifuge pot and oil cooler port, and it must be replaced every
time the centrifuge assembly is removed. Oil leaves the centrifuge pot through a drain tube which is attached to
the base of the pot by means of two fixing screws. The lower end of the drain tube returns oil to the sump and is
fixed to the sump by means of two screws. Gaskets are included at the port interfaces between the oil drain tube
and the centrifuge pot and the oil drain tube and sump return port; these gaskets must be replaced every time the
oil drain tube is removed.
The centrifuge cover is fixed to the pot by two screws and is sealed by an’O’ring.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION CRANKSHAFT, SUMP AND OIL PUMP
The crankshaft, sump and oil pump components are described below:
Sump
The sump is a wet-type, of aluminium construction and is sealed to the engine block by means of a rubber gasket
and twenty fixing bolts. The four bolts at the gearbox end of the sump are longer than the other sixteen bolts.
The sump gasket incorporates compression limiters (integrated metal sleeves) at the bolt holes, which are
included to prevent distortion of the gasket when the sump to cylinder block bolts are being tightened.
An oil drain plug is fitted at the bottom of the oil sump reservoir. An oil return drain pipe is also attached to the oil
sump which returns oil from the centrifugal filter.
Stiffener Plate
The stiffener plate assembly provides lower engine block rigidity and utilises dowels to align it to the bottom of the
cylinder block. A rotary oil pump is integral with the stiffener plate and an oil pick-up and strainer assembly is fitted
to the underside of the stiffener plate. The stiffener and oil pump assembly is secured to the cylinder block by 22
bolts.

A cast and machined aluminium alloy fuel connector block assembly is located at the rear RH side of the cylinder
head, attached by three flanged bolts. A metal gasket is used to seal the faces between the fuel connector block
and the cylinder head, which must be replaced every time the fuel connector block is removed.
CAUTION: The cylinder head incorporates drillings for the fuel injection system, any
contamination which enters these drillings could cause engine running problems or injector
failure. It is therefore, essential that absolute cleanliness is maintained when carrying out work on
the cylinder head.
CAUTION: The valve heads, tips of the injectors and glow plugs protrude below the face of the
cylinder head and will be damaged if the cylinder head is stored face down.
Camshaft carrier
The cast aluminium alloy camshaft carrier is bolted to the cylinder head by thirteen screws. The camshaft carrier
and cylinder head assembly is attached to the cylinder block by twelve cylinder head retaining bolts which pass
through the camshaft carrier and the cylinder head to secure the assembly to the cylinder block.
The carrier is machined together with the cylinder head to form a matched pair for carrying the camshaft.
Non-return valve
A non-return valve is located at the front, bottom LH side of the cylinder head. The non-return valve prevents oil
from draining from the lash adjusters and is an integral component within the cylinder head and is
non-serviceable.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION CAMSHAFT COVER COMPONENTS
The camshaft cover cover components are described below:
Camshaft cover
The camshaft cover is cast from aluminium alloy and is fixed to the camshaft carrier / cylinder head assembly by
thirteen bolts. The cover has spacers and sealing washers inserted into each of the thirteen bolt holes.
A breather hose is connected to a port at the top of the camshaft cover by means of a hose clip which vents
crankcase gases back to the air intake via a breather valve in the air intake tract, located forward of the
turbocharger in the flexible air intake duct.
A rubber seal is fitted between the camshaft cover and camshaft carrier.
An oil filler aperture is included in the top of the camshaft cover, which is sealed with a plastic cap with integral
rubber seal.
CAMSHAFT TIMING CHAIN COMPONENTS
The timing chain cover and timing chain components are described below:
Timing chain cover
The timing chain cover is cast and machined aluminium alloy and is attached to the cylinder head by a bolt at the
RH top of the cover and by a stud and nut at the LH top of the cover. Eight screws are used to attach the timing
chain cover to the front of the engine block. The timing cover is located to the cylinder block front face by two
dowels.
A viscous fan is attached to an idler pulley at the front of the engine block. The fan bearing is located on a shaft
and held in place by a circlip and a bearing flange, the inner race of the fan bearing is an interference fit on the
shaft. The fan idler pulley is attached to the bearing hub by three bolts and the fan itself is secured to the pulley
and bearing shaft by a left-hand threaded nut.
The front of the crankshaft passes through a hole in the lower part of the timing cover. An oil seal is pressed into a
recess in the front of the timing cover to seal the interface between the front of the crankshaft and the timing
cover.
A stub pipe is fitted to the front RH side of the timing cover which is used to attach the oil drain pipe from the
vacuum pump by means of a hose and spring clip.
Timing chains
The timing chain between the camshaft and crankshaft sprockets is a duplex type, each chain having 56 links.
The timing chain is contained between a fixed plastic guide and an hydraulically adjustable plastic tensioner arm
which are attached to the front of the engine block.
To cope with the higher injection loads of the EU3 engine, the timing drive between the camshaft and crankshaft
has been upgraded. This requires thicker chain links to be used, therefore the individual pre EU3 and EU3
components are not interchangeable.
To distinguish between the two timing chains the links are different colours. A pre EU3 chain has blue links. An
EU3 chain has bronze links.
The oil pump timing chain is a single type and traverses the oil pump sprocket and the rear crankshaft sprocket.
The timing chains are oil lubricated, with oil being provided by a chain lubrication jet and from oil flow returning
back to the sump from the cylinder head. An oil hole is included at the front left hand side of the cylinder head
which supplies oil from the cylinder head oil galleries.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMS
Engine design has evolved in order to minimise the emission of harmful by-products. Emission control systems
fitted to Land Rover vehicles are designed to maintain the emission levels within the legal limits pertaining for the
specified market.
Despite the utilisation of specialised emission control equipment, it is still necessary to ensure that the engine is
correctly maintained and is in good mechanical order, so that it operates at its optimum condition.
In addition to emissions improvements through engine design and the application of electronic engine
management systems, special emission control systems are used to limit the pollutant levels developed under
certain conditions. Two main types of additional emission control system are utilised with the Td5 engine to reduce
levels of harmful emissions released into the atmosphere. These are as follows:
Crankcase emission control - Also known as blow-by gas emissions from the engine crankcase.
Exhaust gas recirculation - To reduce NO
2emissions.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION EGR SYSTEMS
There are two types of exhaust gas recirculation system used with the Td5 engine dependent on legislation and
market requirements, these are type 1 and type 2.
Type 1 EGR system is fitted to all Td5’s built up to the introduction of 2002 MY, except for Japanese specification
vehicles.
Type 2 EGR system is fitted to all Japanese specification vehicles and was introduced into European markets for
2002 MY to meet EU3 emission requirements. An additional feature introduced at 2002 MY is the EGR cooler,
which is bolted to the front of the cylinder head.
EGR System - Type 1
This EGR system features a modulator which is electrically controlled to modulate a vacuum source to the EGR
valve. The controlled vacuum opens the valve by the amount required to ensure the optimal proportion of exhaust
gas is allowed through to the inlet manifold to be combined with the fresh air intake. Control feedback is achieved
by monitoring the mass of fresh air flowing through the MAF sensor.
EGR modulator operation is controlled by a signal from the ECM, which determines the required amount of EGR
needed in response to inputs relating to air flow and engine operating and ambient conditions. The ECM is
low-side driven, sinking current returned from the vacuum modulator for switching operating condition.
The exhaust gases are routed from the exhaust manifold through a shaped metal pipe which connects to the
underside of the EGR valve. The pipe is held securely in position to the front of the cylinder head using a clamp
bracket. The EGR pipe is attached to a mating port at the front end of the exhaust manifold using 2 Allen screws,
and at the EGR valve assembly by a metal band clamp. The 2 Allen screws should be replaced every time the
EGR pipe is removed.
CAUTION: Extreme caution should be exercised when removing and refitting the EGR pipe to
avoid damage.
When a vacuum is applied to the EGR suction port, it causes a spindle with sealing disc (EGR valve) to be raised,
thus opening the port at the EGR pipe to allow the recirculated exhaust gas to pass through into the inlet manifold.
The valve is spring loaded so that when the vacuum is removed from the suction port the valve returns to its rest
position to tightly close the exhaust gas port.
By controlling the quantity of recirculated exhaust gas available in the inlet manifold, the optimum mix for the
prevailing engine operating conditions can be maintained. This ensures the intake gas to the combustion
chambers will have burning rate properties which will reduce NO
Xemissions to an acceptable level. Normally, full
recirculation is only applicable when NO
Xemissions are most prevalent.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION EGR System - Type 2
This system features twin modulators mounted one above the other on a metal plate located on the inner wing at
the RH side of the engine. The modulators are electrically controlled by the engine management system and are
used to modulate a vacuum source to the EGR valve and a supplementary Inlet Throttle (ILT) valve; the two
valves are controlled to operate in tandem. The ILT valve vacuum pot is mounted adjacent to the EGR valve
housing and has a linkage which connects to a butterfly valve mounted in front of the EGR valve at the air intake
manifold.
The modulator operations are electrically controlled by signals from the engine management system which
determines the required volume of exhaust gas needed in response to inputs relating to air flow, engine operating
conditions and ambient parameters such as temperature and altitude. The engine management ECM switches on
the circuit by completing the path to ground, operating the vacuum modulators.
Pre EU3 models:The exhaust gases are routed from the exhaust manifold through a shaped metal pipe which
connects to the underside of the EGR valve. The pipe is held securely in position to the front of the engine cylinder
head using a metal clamp bracket. The EGR pipe is attached to a mating port at the front end of the exhaust
manifold using two Allen screws and at the EGR valve assembly by a metal band clamp. The two Allen screws
fixing the EGR pipe to the exhaust manifold should be replaced every time the EGR pipe is removed.
CAUTION: Extreme care should be exercised when removing and refitting the EGR pipe to avoid
damage.
EU3 models:The exhaust gases are routed from the exhaust manifold through the EGR cooler to the underside
of the EGR valve. The EGR cooler is bolted to the front of the engine cylinder head. An EGR pipe connects the
EGR cooler to the exhaust manifold and is secured by two Allen screws. The two Allen screws fixing the EGR pipe
to the exhaust manifold should be replaced every time the EGR pipe is removed. A second pipe connects the
EGR cooler to the EGR valve; this pipe is secured to the EGR valve by a clip, and to the cooler by two Allen
screws.
CAUTION: Extreme care should be exercised when removing and refitting the EGR pipe to avoid
damage. When refitting the EGR cooler, always tighten the pipe connections BEFORE tightening
the bolts securing the cooler to the cylinder head.
When a vacuum is applied to the EGR suction port, it causes a spindle with sealing disc (EGR valve) to be raised,
opening the port at the EGR pipe to allow the recirculated exhaust gas to pass through into the inlet manifold. The
valve is spring loaded so that when the vacuum is removed from the suction port, the valve returns to its rest
position to tightly close the exhaust gas port.
A vacuum is simultaneously applied to the inlet throttle (ILT) valve suction port which causes the butterfly valve in
the inlet manifold to close by means of a spindle and lever mechanism. Closing the butterfly valve limits the supply
of fresh intercooled air entering the inlet manifold and causes a depression within the inlet manifold to create a
greater suction at the open port to the EGR delivery pipe. In this condition a greater mass of recirculated exhaust
gas is drawn into the inlet manifold for use in the combustion process. When the vacuum is released from the ILT
valve suction port a spring returns the butterfly valve to its fully open position.
By controlling the quantities of recirculated exhaust gas and fresh intake air available in the inlet manifold, the
optimum mix for the prevailing engine operating conditions can be maintained which ensures the intake gas to the
combustion chambers will have burning rate properties which will reduce the NO
2emissions to an acceptable
level. Normally, full recirculation is only applicable when the NO
2emissions are most prevalent.
