STC50519 | Discovery 2 ACE Fluid – Ravenol SSF 4L
Ravenol SSF 4L is our preferred hydraulic fluid for Discovery 2 Active Cornering Enhancement systems and the fully synthetic power steering fluid we use in Defenders and Discoverys without ACE. Its excellent cold-flow performance, hydraulic stability and protection against wear, corrosion and foaming make it a quality-led upgrade over a basic power steering fluid.
- Our preferred fluid for Discovery 2 ACE systems requiring STC50519
- Used by Twinwoods as a fully synthetic Defender and Discovery power steering fluid upgrade
- Excellent cold-flow performance with a -55°C pour point
- Supplied in a 4L container for ACE repairs, fluid replacement and workshop use
The larger 4L pack is particularly well suited to ACE system work, where considerably more fluid may be required than for a normal power steering top-up.

Ravenol SSF 4L is a full-synthetic green central hydraulic fluid for Discovery 2 Active Cornering Enhancement systems requiring STC50519. The ACE pump, valve block and hydraulic actuators rely on the correct fluid, and Ravenol SSF combines excellent low-temperature circulation with resistance to wear, corrosion and foaming. The same fluid is also used by Twinwoods as a fully synthetic power steering fluid upgrade in Defender and Discovery models without ACE.
Why We Recommend Ravenol SSF
Ravenol SSF is our preferred Discovery 2 ACE fluid, but we do not restrict it to ACE systems. We also use it as a normal power steering fluid in Defenders and Discoverys where a fully synthetic hydraulic fluid is wanted. Its -55°C pour point provides excellent cold-flow performance, while the formulation remains stable across a wide operating-temperature range.
The 4L container suits ACE system repairs, fluid replacement and regular workshop use. It also provides a practical quantity for workshops or owners maintaining several Land Rovers rather than buying power steering fluid one litre at a time.
