Land Rover Defender Parts (07-16 Puma)

Few vehicles leave a mark the way the Defender did. When the last one rolled off the Solihull line on 29 January 2016, it wasn't just the end of a production run; it was the end of an era. The Puma generation, built from 2007 to 2016, is what most owners are running today. Ford's Duratorq TDCi under the bonnet, a six-speed gearbox and a chassis that'll outlast almost anything you put it through. We stock the Land Rover Defender parts to keep yours going.

Land Rover Defender parts for the 2007-2016 Puma engine

The Puma came in two engine variants. From spring 2007 it ran a 2.4-litre TDCi; from 2012, a 2.2-litre unit replaced it to meet Euro V emissions standards. Power stayed the same at 122 bhp across both. The architecture is shared too, and so are the wear patterns.

EGR valves and coolers are a known weak point on both engines. The MT82 gearbox output shaft spline is another: it's a documented issue that can appear regardless of mileage, caused by the splined coupling being assembled dry at the factory. Cooling and filtration deserve attention at every service. These aren't surprises if you know the platform; they're the components you plan around. Our range of Land Rover Defender parts covers all of it: bodywork and chassis, brakes, suspension, steering, transmission, engine components, electrical systems, lighting and interior trim. Service kits and accessories sit alongside everything else, for the owner who'd rather be prepared than reactive.

Frequently Asked Questions

What engine is in a 2007 to 2016 Land Rover Defender?

The 2007 to 2016 Defender is fitted with Ford's Duratorq TDCi, commonly known as the Puma engine. There are two versions: a 2.4-litre unit built from spring 2007 to 2012, and a 2.2-litre variant from 2012 to 2016. Both produce 122 bhp and are paired with a six-speed MT82 gearbox.

What are the most common faults on a Puma Defender?

The most common faults are EGR valve and EGR cooler failures, MT82 gearbox output shaft spline wear (a factory assembly issue that can appear at any mileage), and timing chain tensioner wear. Early 2.4-litre engines had a known oil pick-up pipe issue; most will have been rectified by now. Consistent servicing addresses the majority of these.

Are Land Rover Defender 90 parts compatible with the Defender 110?

Most are compatible. The Defender 90 and 110 share the same engine, gearbox and drivetrain components across the Puma generation. Some body panels and rear-end trim differ between the two body styles, but for mechanical and service parts the range covers both.

How do I buy Defender parts in Europe?

Moss Rimmer stocks genuine, OEM and aftermarket Defender parts for the 2007 to 2016 Puma, with despatch to European addresses. You can order online or speak to the team directly if you need help identifying the right part for your vehicle.

How long will a Puma Defender engine last?

A well-serviced Puma engine is capable of covering high mileages, though longevity depends heavily on maintenance history. Regular oil changes, quality filtration and prompt attention to EGR and cooling system wear are the main factors. Neglect those areas and problems compound; stay on top of them and the Puma is a dependable unit.
