A full disco 300tdi which will be broken as its rotten.

Personally i would say they are one and the same, you get the same or come to the same conclusion, clearly No 4 injector needs to be changed then go from there, do another leak back test or get it on the code reader and check the injectors that...

Essentially it’s getting the preload on the lifters correct. If it’s wrong it impact compression & engine won’t be at its best.

That’s what I found which concerned me. Just thinking re the amounts coming into the bottles, perhaps parameters are different between the 2 tests

Fair enough Cheers👍👍

You could search the forum or google it. It’s been described many times by peeps changing cams, lifters or doing head skim.

And what is the difference ?

Worth talking to @Bemble ?

Sorry @Arctic2 - forgive my ignorance- so does it matter whether a “leak off” or “leak back” test was done? Just concerned as to whether this affects the interpretation of the results. Clearly either way injector 4 is (the most) dodgy given the...

Here’s what I did to mine in case this helps you I hope. Sticky butyl with the hexagon pattern. 2.5mm. Off eBay from a vehicle company. Can’t remember the price but it was acceptable. I put it on the footwells, gearbox tunnel, under and in the...

1=25ml Only just outside acceptable 2=12.5ml inside acceptable. 3=20ml acceptable 4=35ml outside acceptable so this is the suspect. If the test was done properly over a 2min period anything within the 20ml is acceptable Maybe take Freddie17 up...

Ah. I've discovered that "leak off" and "leak back" tests are different things... I did ask for a leak back test but clearly this was lost in translation because they've performed a "leak off' test according to the invoice. I guess this would...

Thanks to all who replied. Ali, I thought for the relatively small amount extra for the full regulator over the repair kit it was worth it. Obviously, in my case I'd have to go motor hunting now. Every day’s a learning day…👍🏻

Thanks for this. I will ask what the duration of the test was. The notes provided said "Cylinder 4 excessive leak, cylinder 1 & 2 low return of fuel. Advice would be to remove all injectors for testing". So he's saying the low amount in No 2 is...

Never been able to find an actual figure with the seal and brake disc on, everyone I read is different. I even asked Britannica Restorations what figure he suggested for it and he said dunno as he's only ever done it on a vice without the disc...

Both radiators air con and coolant got replaced under my ownership so there brand new. Shimming the rockers is something I am trying to wrap my head around , I don't understand how you check the hydraulic lifter clearance or how big of a shim...

Not just Citroen's, people... https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c0m8872n9gxo As we own a version of a C3 we took this very seriously, but the Japanese company, Takata, that makes the faulty airbags has them fitted in loads of makes and models...

Nope. Typing anything on a phone is a reet pain in the rear end, now I am back on a lappy stuff like this is less likely and far easier to correct. ;)

Not from the water pump, it just drips out. I also had a leak from a plastic hose fitting that had me worried on one car.

?????

Does anyone know if ERR5025 Cylinder head is the same as the old one with Landrover stamp HRC2666?

I will keep an eye out! That will show up in the oil right? Maybe about time I do an oil change actually 🤔

Hopefully you have the coolant leak sorted but if still loosing a little, they also commonly loose coolant at the water pump so look out for leaks there.

Fibber, aint no S in 'the'.. Wot you intimidated rhymes wif kite. Own it.

Well I got that bit but couldn't see how it applied to my remark. Her Profile is there for all to see. My sense of humour must need a polish!;) 🤣

Started reassembling Slooby's former Rangie. Just cannot get the FIP adjustment right. Swapped for the FIP on my scrapper thinking maybe the Woodroffe key was worn but same sh1t. Get it bang on, rotate 360 and the b*st*rd has moved. I think maybe...

If mine was the original its 25 years old, so not done badly

Honestly, same goal over here, more for green-laning than "off roading" the freelander would not handle it, but if you're up to the task chuck in the same engine, you could probably get an early pre-2001 engine for cheaper, I've got a guide on...

Catty, scratch yer eyes out :vb-poke-with-stick:
