Yes, the Range Rover Sport 5.0 AJ133 supercharged V8<\/strong> has been the flagship petrol engine across the L494-generation Range Rover Sport, fitted to Autobiography Dynamic and SVR models where outright performance matters most. As the most powerful Range Rover Sport engine<\/strong><\/u><\/strong><\/a> option available, it carries different considerations around running costs, reliability, and engine replacement<\/strong> pricing compared with the diesel range. At Reconditioned JLR Engine in Grays, UK, we supply and fit every Range Rover engine<\/strong><\/u><\/strong><\/a> variant fitted to the Sport, and this guide breaks down the AJ133 in detail, covering specifications, common faults, and costs, all backed by no upfront charges<\/strong> and no deposit required<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>Overview: The Range Rover Sport 5.0 AJ133 Supercharged V8<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Range Rover Sport 5.0 AJ133 supercharged V8<\/strong> has powered the range’s fastest and most capable models since the L494 generation launched in 2013, sitting above both the SDV6 and SDV8 diesel options in outright performance. Badged simply “5.0 V8 Supercharged” in Autobiography Dynamic trim and tuned further for the SVR, the engine uses a Roots-type supercharger for instant throttle response without turbo lag. It remained the range’s petrol flagship throughout the model’s production run, valued by owners who prioritise performance and driving character over outright fuel efficiency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>Engine Code and Output Tunes<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Range Rover Sport 5.0 supercharged V8 carries the engine code AJ133, part of Jaguar Land Rover’s long-serving supercharged petrol V8 family also used across other Range Rover models. In Autobiography Dynamic tune, the AJ133 produces around 503 to 518 bhp with 625 Nm of torque, while the SVR tune pushes output to around 567 to 575 bhp with 700 Nm. Both tunes share the same core block and supercharger design, with the SVR’s higher output achieved through remapped engine management, a revised exhaust, and stronger internal components to handle the extra load.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>Range Rover Sport 5.0 AJ133 Engine Specifications<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The AJ133 uses a Roots-type supercharger mounted directly atop the engine, paired with direct injection for efficient combustion under both light and heavy throttle. The block and cylinder heads are constructed from aluminium to help offset the significant weight added by the supercharger and associated cooling hardware. The engine pairs exclusively with an eight-speed automatic transmission and permanent all-wheel drive across every Range Rover Sport variant it was fitted to. A dedicated supercharger intercooler and uprated radiator manage heat under sustained hard driving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>Performance and Everyday Driving Characteristics<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The AJ133’s supercharged delivery makes it feel immediately responsive from idle, with the Autobiography Dynamic tune reaching 60mph in around 5.3 seconds and the SVR tune closer to 4.3 seconds. The distinctive supercharger whine under acceleration is a signature trait many owners specifically seek out. Fuel economy is understandably the weakest in the range compared with any of the diesel options, making the AJ133 better suited to owners prioritising performance and character over running costs, particularly given how directly its output scales with throttle input.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>Common AJ133 Engine Problems and Solutions<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The AJ133 supercharged V8 can develop timing chain guide wear over time, producing a rattle that should be investigated promptly to avoid further internal wear. Supercharger coupling wear is another known issue, typically presenting as a whining noise that changes under load. Early examples can also show slightly higher oil consumption than expected, usually manageable with more frequent level checks. Catching any of these issues early significantly reduces the risk of the fault escalating into a full engine rebuild<\/strong> with a considerably higher bill than early intervention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>Reconditioned Engines vs Used Engines for the AJ133<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Whichever tune of AJ133 your Range Rover Sport uses, understanding reconditioned engines vs used engines<\/strong> matters given how much load the supercharger and timing chain carry throughout the engine’s life. A used engine removed from a donor vehicle carries the same wear history as that vehicle, a real concern on a performance unit that may have been driven hard. A reconditioned engine<\/strong> is fully stripped, rebuilt with new bearings, seals, gaskets, and often a new timing chain or supercharger coupling. For most owners, the safer long-term choice is to buy<\/strong> a reconditioned unit rather than risk an unknown used engine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>Engine Replacement Costs for the AJ133<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Engine replacement costs in UK<\/strong> garages for the 5.0 AJ133 typically range from \u00a36,800 to \u00a39,900 for supply and fit, considerably higher than either diesel option given the supercharger’s parts complexity. Labour alone can add \u00a3900 to \u00a31,600 depending on model year and whether ancillary parts such as the supercharger coupling or timing chain also need attention during the same visit. SVR models sit at the top of this range due to their uprated internals and stronger exhaust components, so always confirm your exact output tune before requesting a quote.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
