And I think the only difference between :-
MY10:
3.0 (245bhp) badged as "3.0 TDV6" (what is now called the SDV6 engine)
and
MY11:
3.0 (245bhp) is badged as "SDV6"
is the DPF on the latter
BUT... I have owed both and the SDV6 seems much 'smoother'Illegitimi Non Carborundum

Roy - your dealer is right.
As Ent said, the name change only happened "after MY10" or "from MY11 onwards" in other words.
MY10:
2.7 (190bhp) badged as "TDV6"
3.0 (245bhp) badged as "3.0 TDV6" (what is now called the SDV6 engine)
MY11:
2.7 (190bhp) was dropped
3.0 (211bhp) is badged as "TDV6"
3.0 (245bhp) is badged as "SDV6"
If yours was built in April 2010 then it is definitely a MY10 build which means that it has the same 245bhp engine as the MY11 SDV6 motors, but it is still badged as a TDV6.
Just out of interest (and to check my facts), is yours badged "TDV6" or "3.0 TDV6" ?
Cheers,
Paul
In the interestts of accuracy it would appear that in the current 2011 Model year the lower powered TDV6 is only available in the "Commercial" Version of the D4. Therefore the higher powered SDV6 is now Standard for all new D4's other than Commercial:

OK - this is probably true in the UK, but not everywhere

I am pretty sure you have the SDV6 engine.....
Problem is LR have farted about by starting to use the SDV6 badge (to early) on some cars when I think it was originally only meant as an engine designation for the higher powered models during transition.
It now appears to be the correct badging on latest models.
I think that confused the DVLA as much as everybody else.
I trust owners of the latest D4's are showing SDV6 on their V5's?

According to Wikipedia the SDV6 and TDV6 are the same engine (Ford AJD-V6/PSA DT20)with different outputs, can you not just remap the TDV6 to be the same or more power than the SDV6 with someone like Pete From BAS?

I've just bought an SDV6 XS which is a 2011 MY, it was built Oct 2010. It is badged an SDV6 but this thread made me go and look at the V5 slip that I took away and that says TDV6. Confused! I thought by 2011MY it would have been showing SDV6 in the log book?. Think I'll just double check with LR tomorrow as I hoped I was buying an SDV6!!

Possibly an older thread and it's a while since I have been on D3 but am I right in thinking the 'S' dv6 gets the 8 spd box like the 4.4 TDV8 range rover? The 'T' dv6 stays with the 6 spd box?
D4 HSE....Probably, but not quite decided yet.

No - my April 2011 SDV6 had the 6-speed auto.
↓ And a DPF.
