Oil Seals
OEM Part 1311285
Overview
If you own a Range Rover (2002–2009), Discovery 3 (2005–2009), Range Rover Sport (2005–2009 or 2014+), or Discovery 5 (2017+) fitted with a diesel powerplant, you know how critical engine integrity is. Worn valve stem seals are a silent killer—they let oil past the valve guides into the combustion chamber, causing blue smoke, rough idle, and catastrophic carbon buildup.
This 24-piece set of direct-fit diesel valve stem seals (OEM part 1311285) restores tight valve train clearance across all intake and exhaust ports. Whether your engine is 2.7L V6, 3.0L 24V, or 3.6L V8, these seals meet or exceed OE specifications for durability and oil retention.
Proper valve stem seals are non-negotiable for long-term diesel reliability. Replace them during major service intervals or whenever you're inside the head. The 6-month manufacturer warranty and our 30-day money-back guarantee mean you can buy with complete confidence.

Before ordering: Confirm your engine displacement and fuel type. This set is for diesel engines only. Petrol models require different seals. When in doubt, check your VIN or send us a photo of your engine bay—our team at +44 203 943 9919 can verify fitment instantly.
Installation Notes
Difficulty: Intermediate | Time: 4–6 hours (cylinder head removal required)
-
Remove cylinder head. Drain coolant, remove intake & exhaust manifolds, unbolt head from block, and lift clear.
-
Inspect valve guides. Check guides for wear or scoring. If damaged, have professionally reamed or replace before installing new seals.
-
Remove old seals. Use a seal removal tool or gentle pliers to extract the worn seals without damaging the guide bores.
-
Clean valve guide openings. Wipe all carbon and debris from the bore with a dry, lint-free cloth. Seals must sit in a clean recess.
-
Install new seals. Press each seal squarely onto the valve guide using a seal driver tool (matching the guide diameter). Do not hammer or over-force—seals should slide on smoothly and seat with hand pressure.
-
Verify seating. Confirm all 24 seals are fully seated and sit flush with the guide boss. Any proud or recessed seal can cause oil bypass.
-
Reassemble cylinder head. Torque head bolts to OE spec (typically 65–75 Nm in sequence), reinstall manifolds, refill coolant, and bleed air from the cooling system.
-
Test drive and monitor. Check for blue smoke at idle or under load for the first 50 miles. A small amount of white vapor is normal; persistent blue indicates a seal issue.
Critical: Always use a proper seal driver tool. Hammer installation risks seal damage and will result in immediate oil leaks or blow-by. If you lack a seal driver, rent or buy one (typically £15–30 GBP)—it's cheaper than a warranty claim.
