What's wrong?

The turbo oil drain gasket on the 2023 Land Rover Range Rover seals the joint where oil leaves the turbocharger and returns to the engine. The turbocharger uses engine oil for lubrication and cooling, and the drain pipe carries that hot oil back after it passes through the turbo. The gasket's job is simple: keep oil inside that return path.

On the recalled Range Rover, that gasket was incorrectly installed or left out during engine assembly. Without a properly seated gasket, oil can escape at the turbo oil drain pipe instead of returning cleanly to the engine. The recall scope was traced through engine build records and plant records to the affected VIN.

There is no warning sign before failure. Once oil starts leaking, an owner can notice oil under the vehicle or an oil smell after driving, but the filing does not identify a reliable early symptom before the leak starts.

What happens at the repair
