Hi there,

last week my LR td5 110 (x plate) just stopped working.
Sudden engine stop (restsrted a few times but after a few yards stopped again, got me just a mile down the road).
Was towed by the AA down to the local garage (non LR dealership) and after d...g around a week he told me yesterday the ECU is broken as a local car electrician has tested the ECU and come to the conclusion signals go in but none out.
Getting a new one and reprogramming it seems to be very expensive (600 + £).
Does anyone know someone being able to recondition the unit ?

Before you fork out for a new ecu try pushing your relays (located under the drivers seat) in firmly. They like to rattle loose and so therefore give the appearance of giving voltage to the ecu and fuel pump but actually there are not enough amps to. The symptoms are exactly like those you are describing. If there were no signals from your ecu you wouldn't have been able to restart it and get a mile down the road. If that doesn't work THEN buy your ECU.;)
