Range Rover Evoque: buying a used Ingenium 2.0 diesel

L538 vs L551, FWD vs AWD, and what to check before you buy a used 2.0 diesel for a Range Rover Evoque.

Range Rover Evoque L538 picked up the Ingenium 2.0 diesel from 2015 (earlier cars are Ford 2.2, code 224DT). L551 from 2019 is Ingenium-only. Both generations sit the engine transverse, in the compact-SUV layout family with E-Pace.

Other transverse 2.0 diesels can be candidates when a same-model donor is scarce. They are still not an automatic drop-in. Mounts, wiring, sump, crank sensor position and gearbox can differ by year. Confirm the stamped code, the unique engine number, and whether the Evoque was FWD or AWD.

L551 D150/D180 may be closer to other facelift compact SUVs than an early L538 is. Later Evoque diesels can be MHEV (often 204DTY / D165 / D200). Those are the wrong complete-engine package for an earlier non-hybrid 204DTD.

Read the fitment table and run the checker with model set to Evoque.

Workshop pick

Schaeffler INA

559 1793 20
The aftermarket line UK trade catalogues most often put against the 2.0 diesel. Related numbers 559 1793 21 and 553 0814 10 are not automatic substitutes. Open the box: you need both chains, all guides and both tensioners — some INA lines are a short kit.

Complete aftermarket kit

Febi Bilstein

194091
The boxed kit we would order for a used 2.0 diesel going back in, if genuine is not on the shelf. It crosses to LR132676 and LR139320. Check both chains (90 and 82 links), all guides and both tensioners before you pay.

Single-turbo 150/180 hp

Genuine JLR (latest revision)

LR140581
The turbo we would order for a single-turbo 2.0 diesel. Current Land Rover number; supersedes LR094424, LR083483 and LR073722. Confirm the stamp on the old housing and the VIN. Not a 204DTA twin-turbo.

Kits we would actually order for a 2.0 diesel: Schaeffler INA 559 1793 20 or Febi 194091 for the chain, and LR140581 for a single turbo. Confirm the box against your engine number. Affiliate disclosure — tracking IDs are still placeholders.
