This is not another "Has anyone done this?" or "Wouldn't it be great if..." post

We are installing TD5 motors in Discovery II's. No check engine light. Retained all ABS and traction control functions. If you are state side and have always longed for that diesel in your rig, we can do it!

Inquire at King's Cross Automotive | Premier Land Rover and Jaguar Service Center

So will it meet California SMOG standards?

Awesome idea of course. What are costs like? Legality, inspection wise? Big question, do we get a 5-speed?

 

[Ft.Rover]

I have not done a 5-speed yet. But it is easily accomplished.

As for California emission standards I am not sure what is required there. Our install will leave the capability of the check engine light to function properly and allow fault codes to cause the warning light to come on. A catalytic converter is installed. I believe that it would pass inspection, however I can not say for certain if it would pass in California. It passes in Oregon and Washington.

Does that mean it's registered as a diesel too?

 

[Ft.Rover]

I'm not sure what they registered it as. I left that up to them.
