Fully Reconditioned Toyota LandCruiser 1VD-FTV 4.5L V8 Diesel Long Block Engine. This engine suits Toyota LandCruiser models originally fitted with the 1VD-FTV 4.5L turbo diesel V8 engine, commonly found in 2007–2015 LandCruiser applications.
Common compatible vehicles include:
• Toyota LandCruiser 200 Series 2007
• Toyota LandCruiser 200 Series 2008
• Toyota LandCruiser 200 Series 2009
• Toyota LandCruiser 200 Series 2010
• Toyota LandCruiser 200 Series 2011
• Toyota LandCruiser 200 Series 2012
• Toyota LandCruiser 200 Series 2013
• Toyota LandCruiser 200 Series 2014
• Toyota LandCruiser 200 Series 2015
• Other Toyota LandCruiser models fitted with the 1VD-FTV engine
This engine is supplied as a fully reconditioned long block, including the reconditioned cylinder block, reconditioned cylinder heads, crankshaft, pistons, valve train, new timing gear, new timing chains, new gaskets, seals and other required internal replacement components during the rebuild process.
Please note this engine does not include the diesel injection pump. External accessories such as the alternator, manifolds, turbos, injectors, diesel pump, brackets, cooling components and other bolt-on parts will need to be transferred from the original engine unless otherwise stated.
The Toyota 1VD-FTV is a strong and popular V8 diesel engine, but high-kilometre engines can suffer from wear, oil consumption, turbo-related issues, cooling system problems, timing component wear and general age-related failure. A fully reconditioned head and block gives customers a cleaner, stronger replacement option without relying on an unknown second-hand engine.
If you are unsure about compatibility, please send your VIN or engine number and we can confirm fitment before purchase.
Please note: We stock these, but not in Australia. Delivery is 2 months.

Know what you're buying
New vs reconditioned crate engines
Plenty of engines sold into New Zealand are old, patched motors with new seals, called "remanufactured". Here's the honest difference with a brand new crate engine.
What we sell
Brand new crate engine
Built from new components only, to OEM+ specification, with the known factory weak points engineered out.
- Forged steel crankshaft, upgraded pistons, improved oil galleries
- Zero kilometres — no unknown history, no wear
- Hot tested with QR video proof on every engine
- Heat tabs fitted for transparent warranty coverage
- 1-year warranty standard, 2–3 year Platinum available
- No exchange required — keep your old engine
The old way
Reconditioned / used
A worn core with new seals and gaskets — the internals, and the history, are whatever they are.
- Unknown kilometres, service history and prior abuse
- Original worn internals retained under new gaskets
- Rarely tested before sale — you're the test
- Core charges and exchange units required
- Typical warranty: 3 months, if any
- Early failures inherit the old engine's problems
Before you fit it
Plan the job around the whole vehicle
A new engine only lasts if the reason the old one failed is fixed. Your mechanic should check these before fitting.
Find the original cause
Overheating, cooling faults, blocked intakes or fuel issues that killed the old engine will kill the new one too. Diagnose and fix them first.
Check the parts you reuse
Radiator, hoses, injectors, turbo, intercooler and sensors carried over from the old engine should be inspected, cleaned or replaced.
Follow the fitting requirements
Fitted by a qualified mechanic with a tax invoice, correct fluids and a proper first start-up. This keeps your warranty active.

Before you buy
Engine replacement FAQs
Not sure this is the right engine? Send us your VIN or engine code and we'll confirm fitment before you pay.
Is this engine brand new?
Yes. Built from new components only — not reconditioned, not second-hand, zero kilometres.
What's included with the engine?
This is a long block. Accessories such as the turbo, injectors, pumps, sensors and manifolds are transferred from your existing engine unless listed otherwise. Check the description or ask us if unsure.
Will I pay GST or customs fees on delivery?
Yes. Prices are in NZD excluding GST. When the engine arrives, NZ Customs collects 15% GST plus an import entry transaction fee and biosecurity levy (around NZ$172 combined) before it is released. Engines are duty-free. You pay those charges directly to Customs, not to us.
How long does delivery to New Zealand take?
The estimated delivery window is shown next to the Add to cart button. We'll send tracking as soon as your engine is dispatched.
How does the warranty work?
1-year warranty covering manufacturing and assembly faults, with 2 and 3-year Platinum cover available. Installation by a qualified mechanic with a tax invoice is required to activate cover.
Do I need to send my old engine back?
No. No core charge and no exchange — keep or sell your old engine.
