Overview
The Range Rover Evoque (2012–2020) and Land Rover Discovery Sport (2015–2020) rely on ZF's 9-speed automatic transmission for smooth, responsive power delivery. At the heart of this system sits the differential bearing oil seal—a precision component that prevents fluid leakage, maintains pressure integrity, and protects bearing assemblies from contamination.
This replacement seal meets or exceeds OEM specifications for fitment and performance. Manufactured from high-grade metal materials, it resists heat cycling and thermal stress that occurs during normal transmission operation. Whether you're addressing a fluid leak, replacing worn seals during service, or building a refreshed transmission assembly, this part delivers the durability and precision Land Rover owners demand.
Direct replacement for part number LR049886. No modifications required. Backed by our 30-day money-back guarantee and 12-month manufacturer warranty.

Installation
Difficulty Level: Intermediate
Typical duration: 1.5–2 hours. Requires basic mechanical tools and transmission fluid knowledge. Professional installation recommended if unfamiliar with differential work.
-
Remove transmission. Safely lift vehicle on ramps or jack stands. Drain transmission fluid into clean pan. Disconnect transmission cooler lines and electronic connectors.
-
Access differential housing. Remove transmission pan and filter. Locate differential bearing housing at rear of transmission case.
-
Remove old seal. Using a seal puller or small pry tool, carefully extract worn seal. Clean sealing surface with lint-free cloth. Inspect housing for damage or scoring.
-
Install new seal. Apply thin layer of fresh transmission fluid to seal lip. Press new seal into housing using proper seal driver tool to avoid mis-seating. Ensure seal sits flush with housing edge.
-
Reassemble. Install transmission pan gasket (replace with new gasket). Torque pan bolts to specification. Reconnect cooler lines and electronic connectors. Reinstall transmission into vehicle.
-
Fill & check fluid. Add fresh ATF to spec level (check with engine running at normal operating temperature). Run through all gears. Check for leaks at differential housing.
-
Final inspection. Allow transmission to cool. Recheck fluid level. Monitor for any seepage over next 50 miles of normal driving.
⚠️ Important: Use only Land Rover Genuine ATF (JLRCA or equivalent) or approved synthetic alternative. Over-tightening transmission pan bolts or using improper installation tools risks seal damage and transmission failure. If unfamiliar with transmission work, have a qualified Land Rover specialist perform this service.
