Could be a faulty master cylinder but the slaves are known for packing up as well, is it losing fluid? have a look and see if fluid is leaking out from the bellhousing.

Cooking oil needs to be heated before it enters the pumps as it will overload the pump if its cold, so yes you will **** it up by just pouring it in the tank.

Yes, dash needs to come out, no other way of doing it. It's not as bad as it sounds though.

Does seem strange that they are wired like that but lookin at it, I can see that the injectors have a power feed on the brown wire and they are switched by the 2 yellow wires which are earths, why they are wired in parallel is beyond me but there must have been a reason why they did it this way...

testbook is just a laptop, get the software and the communcation box and you're away. Expensive though. You'll also need the cd for whatever model you intend to use it on, I can supply these if anyone wants them. Look here

Pesonally I wouldn't bother with the 2007, get a Td5. The transit engine in the 2007 is a good torquey engine but the gearbox is ****, poor selection, prone to failing and not man enough for tough off roading (they go wrong on road!!!), I'm not keen on the interior either, looks better but no...

I think you're right (not just 01 but all), we've done loads of pumps over the past weeks, I think it might be the cold weather, the deisel goes a bit thicker in the cold and this puts extra load on the pump.

looks to me like none of them have been replaced. if the one in the take was new, the white part on the top would be clean and new as the pump comes complete with the sender and the top bit. The only other air flow meter from land rover that will fit the td4 is a sensor from a disco2 V8, the...

9 times out of 10 this fault is caused by low primary fuel pressure, either the fuel pump under the wheel arch is fooked or one or more of the injectors are leaking back. Low side fuel pressure should be about 350kpa, any lower and it wont start (dunno what that is in psi) also if the fuel...

No it won't and if the dealer in question followed the bulliten, they shouldn't have told him that. That wasn't my point though, my point was that nearly everyone doesn't believe us when we say it can cause serious damage, they just walk off calling us ****ers and say "well my old 300tdi was...

This is where you lot think us dealers are taking the **** and having one over on the customer. Sure, a small amount of petrol wont do it any harm if its diluted enough, but fill it up with petrol and drive it till it stops will **** it big time. I've seen an L322 range rover with a...

the cylinder numbers are on the coil packs, you'll need a mirror to see unless you've got them off

for your own safety run it on petrol till the christmas break is over.

white w/orange stripe. dash lights yellow w/black stripe (goes no where), electric aerial/amp switch power feed red w/black stripe, ignition power feed purple w/white stripe, permenant live black, earth Double check with a test light!!!!!! The others are speaker wires, trial and error...

Quite possibly an ecu fault, the norm for these though, is they will go into low but won't come back out. I would definately check the motor as they are prone to failing because they don't get used enough, its only a glorified defender wiper motor anyway! You can fit a second hand ecu as...

check the air con drain tubes, the're prone to blocking.

It could be a couple of things, either its overboosting or an air flow meter fault. If its an air flow meter fault then it won't reach maximum revs and the car will surge, sort of feels like its changing up and down gears all the time (only at full throttle) If its overboosting, it will...

No you shouldn't need to.

Going by your description, (I'll need to check though) The relay is the engine management relay and powers the ecu and other electrical stuff for the engine management. The injectors all have a live feed to them and the ecu switches the earth, no two injectors will be open at the same time. the...

What a load of bollocks! Who told you that? That wont make any difference to the mot, what will fail is having extra seats and no belts, not extra belts and no seats. They dont count the seats anyway as its not a minibus.
