I’ve previously used Mann filters for engine air, cabin air and oil filters. I’ve also used Mahle filters for the same. If on a tight budget, filtron and wix are ok economy brands and really are part of Mann+Hummel, too.
As for oil, check your manual what kind of oil you need, mine is a petrol so what I’m using is not necessary what you should use. As for brands, I use Shell for no good reason but a lot of people use Mobil, Castrol (this is what LR recommends but it’s a commercial relationship...), Total, Ravenol, etc. kind of depends what’s available locally.

Oil is 5W30 fully synthetic
It's takes a bit under 6 litres.
DPF models take C2 or C3
Older (pre DPF models) can run on A or B

The original filter that came out of my D4 was a Mann filter.
They can be slightly more expensive than other filters but are definitely good quality.D4 2016 Landmark, Waitomo Grey.
D3 2005 HSE, Bonatti Grey, now sold but still comes back for servicing.
Defender 2002 Td5 Commercial, had a hard life but slowly being restored.
I only work so I can afford to repair my Land Rovers!
