Land Rover Part Number: NRC7741 - Engine Oil Cooler
NRC7741 is an Engine Oil Cooler. Fitted into the vehicle cooling circuit, it transfers heat from the circulating engine oil to the engine coolant to regulate oil temperature within the cooling system. The unit routes oil through internal passages while coolant flows around the oil circuit, helping to prevent excessive rises in oil viscosity and reducing the risk of oil degradation under sustained load, high ambient temperatures, extended driving or towing. For the Defender application listed, the cooler interfaces with the oil feed and return lines and the vehicle coolant plumbing; correct connection orientation and leak-free sealing are required. Use the compatibility data below to confirm fitment against your V.I.N.

Frequently Asked Questions
NRC7741 provides controlled heat exchange between the engine oil and the engine coolant by routing oil through internal passages while coolant flows around that oil circuit. This helps keep oil temperature within an acceptable range to maintain viscosity and reduce the risk of oil degradation during prolonged or heavy use. The unit connects to the oil feed and return lines and to the coolant plumbing and must be installed with the correct orientation and leak-free seals.
