How calibration works

We match you to a service centre
We route your enquiry to the nearest service centre set up for your make. They confirm the itemised quote and the appointment with you direct, in writing, before anything is booked.

Calibration and certificate
The centre runs the manufacturer-spec calibration and issues your certificate on completion. Any diagnostic scan the job needs is itemised on the quote, never folded in silently.
Land Rover calibration prices
Network rates, the same at every service centre, whichever Land Rover is on the ramp. Every price is per system, shown inc VAT with the net figure alongside. Your total is confirmed in writing before anything is booked.
Calibration — per system
After a part was replaced (includes coding to your vehicle)
- When your job needs a diagnostic scan, it's £54 inc VAT (£45 +VAT), always itemised as its own line. It shows which systems were live before work started.
- Two or more systems in one visit: the highest-priced system is full price, each additional system is 35% off at a centre. Scans aren't part of the discount. Front camera and front radar together come to £267.30 inc VAT (£222.75 +VAT).
- On mobile trade visits only: if the technician attends and the calibration can't be completed, a sensor fitted misaligned for example, a call-out fee of up to £72 inc VAT (£60 +VAT) applies.
- Mobile calibration is available for garages and bodyshops with workshop conditions. Ask us.
Land Rover ADAS warnings we cover
The two jobs Land Rover owners bring us most, each with a full walkthrough, plus the closest story from the Jaguar side of JLR.

ADAS calibration after windscreen replacement
New screen, or the old one out and back in for a reseal, on an Evoque, Discovery Sport or Range Rover, and the fitter says it needs recalibrating? The walkthrough covers why the camera needs re-aiming, the process and the price.
- SymptomsRead more
Forward collision warning fault
Forward Alert or Emergency Braking warning that won't clear, often after bumper work? The walkthrough covers the usual causes, the radar calibration that fixes it and what it costs.

Front grill camera replaced
Jaguar and Land Rover are both JLR marques, and both mount a surround-view camera in the grille on cars with the 360 view. This Jaguar walkthrough covers why a replacement unit needs coding before calibration, and the per-system price.

Frequently asked questions
Yes. The forward camera sits against the windscreen glass and drives Lane Keep Assist, Emergency Braking and Traffic Sign Recognition. A new screen changes the glass the camera reads through and shifts its aim, and the same goes for a reseal where the original glass comes out and goes back in. Until the camera is re-aimed to Land Rover's documented procedure, those systems are working from a view that's slightly off.
Most glass fitters don't carry the targets or the diagnostic platform, so the calibration step comes back to you. The windscreen calibration walkthrough covers the job in full. Front camera calibration after a windscreen replacement is £162 inc VAT (£135 +VAT) at a centre.
Usually, yes. On radar-equipped models like the Range Rover Sport, Forward Alert and Intelligent Emergency Braking read from the front radar behind the bumper, while camera-led models lean on the windscreen camera, and a bumper coming off and going back on is enough to move the radar's aim. When the readings sit outside tolerance the car switches those systems off and holds the message on the dash. It's guarding the systems, not reporting a second fault.
Worth checking before you book: if the knock that caused the repair also caught the radar or its bracket, the mounting has to be put right first or the calibration won't hold. Front radar calibration is £162 inc VAT (£135 +VAT) at a centre. Your quote is confirmed in writing before anything is booked.
A JLR dealer bills calibration at its full workshop labour rate however routine the job is. The procedure itself is fixed by Land Rover's documentation: a level floor, targets set out at measured distances, the diagnostic platform stepping through the sequence, on a Defender the same as on an Evoque. Dealer quotes for ADAS work run £300 to £900 in quotes customers have shown us.
Front camera calibration is £162 inc VAT (£135 +VAT), front radar is the same, with the full rate card on this page. Two or more systems in one visit: the highest-priced system is full price and each additional system is 35% off at a centre.
Yes, once two steps have run. A replacement blind spot radar arrives blank, so it first has to be coded to your specific car, then calibrated so its reading angle across the rear corner is correct. Until both are done, the car keeps the system offline and the message on the dash.
The same radar can also drop out of tolerance without being replaced: rear-end repairs and reversing knocks around the rear bumper are the usual cause. Blind spot radar calibration following a replacement, coding included, is £226.80 inc VAT (£189 +VAT) at a centre.
In most cases, yes. A replacement rear camera has to be coded to the car so it's recognised, then calibrated so the dynamic guidelines draw in the right place as you steer. Until both steps run, the display can sit without guidelines or show a view that doesn't line up.
If the parking sensors dropped out at the same time, that gets checked rather than assumed into the calibration: a diagnostic scan is £54 inc VAT (£45 +VAT), always itemised as its own line, and shows which systems are live and whether the sensors carry a separate fault. Rear camera calibration following a replacement, coding included, is £213.60 inc VAT (£178 +VAT) at a centre.
No. UK block exemption rules let an independent workshop carry out this work without affecting the manufacturer warranty, provided it follows Land Rover's documented procedure, and that's the standard our centres work to. What matters in a warranty conversation, or a resale one, is the paper trail.
Certificate to manufacturer tolerances, the same standard dealers issue. It shows the procedure followed and the pre- and post-job sensor readings, and it belongs in the service history with the rest of the car's record.
