2002 Land Rover Range Rover (VIN:4)

Factory specifications, fluid capacities, torque values, EPA fuel economy and the federal safety record for the 2002 Range Rover (VIN:4).

Body SUVTransmission Automatic 4-spd

The 2002 Range Rover (VIN:4) is an SUV paired with a four-speed automatic transmission and a maintenance regimen that specifies 6.1 quarts of 20W-40, 20W-50, or 15W-40 API oil, while EPA ratings register 11 city, 14 highway, and 12 combined mpg. Within the model’s broader reliability history, this model year registers as a relatively quiet chapter, logging zero recalls and just 14 total owner complaints. Still, because the power train accounts for the largest share of that modest grievance volume, researchers should concentrate their scrutiny on power train function when evaluating units.

Fitment & sizes

Replacement part sizes and factory part numbers — battery, bulbs, filters and belts.

From the factory this vehicle uses a BCI 30H · 900 CCA battery, OE oil filter ERR3340. Note the factory thermostat is now discontinued — plan on a superseded or quality aftermarket equivalent, which the part pages below list where known. Each part links to every other vehicle that shares it, so a part you already stock may fit more of your fleet than you'd expect.

Reliability & federal safety record

Owner-reported issues, recalls, investigations and service bulletins on record with NHTSA — an unfiltered look at what owners actually experience.

Owner complaints about the 2002 Land Rover Range Rover (VIN:4) dominate in one area — the power train, 8 of 14 reports (57%), well ahead of the next concern. NHTSA has issued no recalls for this vehicle, so these are owner-reported concerns only. 0 of the reports describe a crash and 0 a fire — a small share of the total, but worth weighing against the power train pattern above. These are tallies of what owners actually reported to the federal government, not an editorial score — and higher-selling models naturally rack up more reports.
