Hi All
I have a 2005 freelander td4
i was driving up the motorway the other day and everything was fine, i got to a roundabout after coming off the junction and car started running all lumpy(misfire)?
Had my mate around(auto electrician) to put his diagnostic machine on the car and id didn't pick up any faults, he seemed to think it was an injector fault so checked that the voltage going to the injectors were all ok(they were)
we then unplugged the injector plugs one at a time like you would with a spark plug to see if there was any obvious difference, Number 1 injector made a very slight difference the others made the missfire worse.
i have since tried some injector cleaner and had a leak test on the injectors, results from that were that number 1 was leaking slightly more than the other 3 but all 4 could do with a service @£80 each but he said as i have no starting problems in the hot or cold or the car doesnt smoke it sounded more like an EGR fault? tonight i have cleaned out the EGR valve(it was mankey) but that has still made no difference
Any other ideas?
Sorry for long post but wanted to give as much info as possible
Thanks in advance
