I just remember looking it up when I realised all the square plated cars had ZA prefixes..

Congratulations on the new car.
I've been wondering, is the oil dilution issue now sorted in these?

The oil dilution is a SD4 issue.....
The 2.0L engine it isn't a good choice for the D5.....
The TD6 engine is the same (refined) of MY2016- Discovery 4 (V6 Diesel)Discovery 5 tdv6 HSE Corris Gray Outback Engineering Limited Edition IID Pro MV License

That's not correct ...oil dilution was on the Discovery Sport 2.0 ...not the D5
The 240 2.0 is a great engine in the D5 21 year LR veteran > D2 GS 2003 > D3 S 2006 > D3 HSE 2009 > D4 HSE 2013 > D4 HSE 2015 > D5 HSE 2018 > DS HSE R-Dynamic P300e 2021

The reason I ask is because there are plenty of complaints of early service due to oil dilution on the Disco 5 forum.
It may well be the most viewed topic on the forum from what I can see.
There are other threads too on this topic.

Early service calls for oil dilution on D5 was mainly on the 17 & 18my TDv6, oil dilution is not measured but inferred by calculation, when revising the algorithm for SDV6 , it was decided that the calculation was wrong, my TDV6 had early services every 5000 miles, however, after the calculation was redone and flashed to my car it then went to the 16000 mile services as expected.
