Overview
If you drive a Range Rover Sport, Discovery Sport, Discovery, Range Rover Velar, or Range Rover Evoque with a petrol engine, you know performance and reliability matter. Valve stem seals are critical — they regulate oil flow to the valve guides, preventing oil burn and maintaining compression. When they wear, you'll notice blue smoke on cold starts, increased oil consumption, and a rough idle.
This OE-specification valve stem seal kit contains 16 seals (a complete set for most petrol engines) and matches Land Rover part number LR116489. Whether your 1.5L I3, 2.0L, or 3.0L I6 engine is factory or rebuilt, these seals restore proper valve guide lubrication and combustion chamber sealing.
Manufactured to strict OE standards and tested for durability under operating temperatures, they're an essential refresh for any engine rebuild or high-mileage maintenance. Fits 2014–2019+ petrol models across the Range Rover and Discovery lineup.

Installation Notes
Professional Engine Work Required
Valve stem seal replacement requires cylinder head removal and valve guide access. This is not a bolt-on job and should only be performed by a qualified technician or during a full engine rebuild.
-
Remove cylinder head — Follow manufacturer torque sequence and procedures
-
Remove valves and springs — Use a valve spring compressor tool
-
Extract old seals — Push or pry from valve guide tops carefully
-
Clean valve guides — Ensure guides are free of carbon and debris
-
Install new seals — Press OE seals onto guides using a dedicated seal installer tool (prevents damage)
-
Reinstall valves and springs — Confirm proper seating and spring tension
-
Reassemble and test — Torque head bolts to spec; run compression and leak-down tests
⚠️ Warning: Always work on a clean bench. Do not force seals onto guides — they should slide smoothly when using the correct installer. Cross-threading or forcing can damage the guide and ruin the seal.
