    Have I just buggered my clutch after re-mapping my disco and driving it harder ???

    Have I just buggered my clutch after re-mapping my disco and driving it harder ???

    Car has done 96k and as far as I know the clutch is the original, the symtoms are that it is just starting to slip (noticed it in 4th) whilst towing the caravan. so if like was suggested that components are likely made to last 100k then mines about right, could just be coincidence that it has...

    Injector Loom TD5

    Dont you have to have the injector harness "coded" in to your ECU, each injector plug has the tolerance figures written on it and these have to be put into the ECU, At least thats what Mike from Dynachip did to mine when we re mapped it and changed harness at the same time, Also Removed EGR at...

    mpg td5 disco??

    just done all that ie de EGR, new airflow meter and re-mapp, was getting anywhere between 25 and 35 depending upon where and when, I will run it for a week or 2 and let you all know if the figures go up or down, probably down to start with as it is difficlut not to drive it a little harder ...

    The WOW factor

    thats more or less what i was led to believe after talking to several people in the trade and of course trawling the internet, i must add that it hasnt affected its drivability at all in any way for instance round town and tootling to the shops etc etc . I will run it for a few weeks normally...
