Service Intervals
5.0L engine owners are asking for trouble if you wait to change your oil every 15,000 miles or 1 year, whichever comes first. I wouldn't go past 7,500 miles since oil is cheaper than replacing the chain tensioner guides. And make sure that you use only the required spec STJLR 51.5122 0W-20 oil to get proper oil pressure at cold startup. For details, see this thread:

The ZF transmissions specialist near me is emphatic that the transmission fluid and filter in our cars should be changed every 50-60K miles (80-100K km). The water pump will likely need to be changed at a similar interval.

On the 5.0, it's in the tank attached to the mounting flange. It's a non serviceable part and can only be replaced by replacing the mounting flange.
