So the cat has been cooked I believe failed emissions and brakes are ****e. So need new brakes all round and new cats I assume to get emissions down.

So does it run now without cutting out?

Brake may want fettling and bleeding out properly

SnowmanV8 · May 13, 2013

Yeah slight popping so I'm guessing timing and new cats should do the trick. according to google 3.9 v8I disco 1's don't exist

You said that one bank wasn't firing due to dodgy leads, this will foul lambda sensor on cat vehicles- what readings did you get on co2

Oil at 71 degrees c, would check the ecu coolant sensor as the reading is hi on co2 and if sensor telling lies saying it is cold it will over fuel-will need a multimeter

Yeah, high CO means rich mixture whereas high HC means bad cat and/or misfire.

Check your injection tuning etc and see what's what, if you have passed HCs I don't think you have failed cats necessarily.

I'm assuming a screwdriver to the black plastic container on the back followed by a lit match will solve the Co issue? I can't even find any parts to start swapping over

SnowmanV8 · May 13, 2013

Cheers Fanny I'll pop out and get a multimeter have a butcher hook at the sensor. Now to pray

FlyingDutchman · May 13, 2013

Looking at the history, think Mr. Noisy's diagnose sounds the best option to start trouble shooting.

Never jump to conclusions, it is too costly.

Just hunting for a set of rear disc's and pads atm, They need changing so at least once I find them for sale I'll order them.

SnowmanV8 · May 13, 2013

Am I right in thinking 300tdi and the V8 discs are the same. Seem to have same part number.

Worth getting this?
