Td5 Idle uneven when hot

Discodevon · Jan 6, 2014

Hi td5 lovers I have a slight issue, maybe not so slight but my discovery td5 15p when hot the idle needle drops up and down ever so slightly.

I was hoping someone could send me in the right direction as to sorting the problem

I bought this landy to work on myself as I need and want to learn diy mechanics.

many thanks

Have you checked for oil ingress in the red plug of the Ecu?

Hi Ratty

Yes we have checked ecu plug and its bone dry.

We haven't changed the harness because of that could it still be failty?

Before you start panicking that it's anything major it might be worth just checking the injector balances on a diagnostic pooter and also visually checking for air leaks on the air intake and vacuum pipes.
