Evening all,
New to the forum and so far absolutely loving my Td5 disco despite a wanted post will be put up soon for a chassis in preparation for the inevitable.
On a more unfortunate note, my sister has recently part exchanged her freelander for a td5 almost identical to mine and it’s giving all the traditional headaches. In order of appearance here is the fault and what we have tried so far;
Sometimes the car starts after not even 1 revolution of the engine but on other occasions it simply will not go. This has no correlation with temperature or anything like that and the fault is very irregular, so far we have done the following;
New Injector wiring loom
New Injector seals
New Crank position sensor
New Air bleed valve in fuel filter housing
Fuel pump swapped with the one from my disco
Full service
Ecu plugs cleaned
Egr is already deleted
We have found fault codes in the ecu for the maf being down, unplugging it makes no difference to this fault. Noisy crank signal and some faults we believe to be a common irrelevance for air con and a can fault.
Sorry to ask the most common question on earth but running out of ideas and local specialists are equally stumped, any help is much appreciated
