2001 Land Rover Range Rover (VIN:6)

Factory specifications, fluid capacities, torque values, EPA fuel economy and the federal safety record for the 2001 Range Rover (VIN:6).

The 2001 Land Rover Range Rover (VIN:6) carries a 6.1-quart engine oil capacity specified for 20W-40, 20W-50, or 15W-40 API viscosity grades, giving its service routine a clear, high-volume profile. Reliability data for this model year is comparatively light: owner reports total just seven complaints, the most common area being seat belts, and only one recall is on record. That low complaint count and single recall position the 2001 Range Rover among the calmer entries in the model's reliability history, making it a year worth noting for its relative lack of reported trouble.

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 Note the factory thermostat is now discontinued — plan on a superseded or quality aftermarket equivalent, which the part pages below list where known.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 2001 Land Rover Range Rover (VIN:6) top in one area — the seat belts, 1 of 7 reports (14%), well ahead of the next concern. None of this vehicle's 1 recall campaigns target the seat belts, so those reports read as owner-reported wear-and-tear rather than an acknowledged defect. 1 of the reports describe a crash and 0 a fire — a small share of the total, but worth weighing against the seat belts 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.
