Land Rover Part Number: LR002565 - Piston - Less Connecting Rod
LR002565 is a piston (less connecting rod) for the 3.2L DOHC MPI petrol I6. Fitted to the crankshaft/pistons and bearings assembly, the piston crown accepts combustion loading while the skirt stabilises movement within the cylinder and the ring grooves take the piston rings that manage combustion sealing and oil control. Combustion forces are transmitted through the piston pin to the connecting rod and on to the crankshaft to produce engine torque. Over time surface wear, ring wear or scoring can reduce compression and increase oil consumption; replacement pistons restore correct clearance and sealing geometry for this application. Use the compatibility data below to confirm fitment against your V.I.N.

Frequently Asked Questions
LR002565 is a piston (less connecting rod) for the 3.2L DOHC MPI petrol I6. It accepts combustion loading at the crown, locates piston rings in the ring grooves to control gas sealing and oil distribution, and transmits linear motion via the piston pin to the connecting rod and crankshaft. Worn or scored pistons and rings reduce compression and increase oil consumption, so replacement restores correct clearances and sealing geometry.
