Yes there is an ERG cooler bolted to the cylinder head. Mine is loosing coolant

I've had the problem of my TD4 loosing all of the coolant in the header tank recently, which I was told was a leak on the EGR cooler. I was advised to fit the EGR mod and block of the cooler to fix this. I have fitted the EGR blanking plate at the weekend, abut am a bit unsure as to where...

My mechanic has had a look at it this morning and said: there was a vacuum pipe popped of the turbo (possibly the black smoke), the seal on the inter-cooler and thermostat needed replacing. The thermostat leaked water when cold, but looked like once it had warmed up it sealed. Regards to the...

When I was driving it last week the turbo was kicking in though? And you could feel the pull on it.

Checked all the pipes, cant see anything, changed the crank case breather for one of the BMW upgraded ones, (that was messy), no coolant in the tank, so I topped it back up, with a litre, which just disappeared into the system, leaving me with an empty header tank. Checked under the car and...

I will, and thanks for all of your help David.

No, nothing like that, just an empty expansion tank. Which takes about 3/4 of a litre to fill up again/ Black smoke when you put your foot down, did an obdII check and it said fault with turbo solenoid. The engine light goes off and on as it pleases. I will check all the pipework at the...

I did see a small amount of sludge on the oil cap, but it wasnt there the other day when I checked the oil.

Help. My TD4 (54 plate) is loosing coolant, It keeps emptying the header tank. It has been blowing black smoke for a few weeks now, and the engine management light has come on. I topped up the coolant today, did about 30 miles in it, and the coolant tank was empty. Can anyone think of what...

I Have been Changing the brake pads on my Freelander 1 (Facelift), just taking the front wheel off nd the security key nut broke (The 2 pins inside crumbled) Im now stuck with one side done, and the other not. Does anybody know where I can get a spare one from? I'm in Winchester Hampshire...

All of my back lights seem to have gone out, I have checked the bulbs and the fuses, but cant see anything obvious. Which fuse does the rear lights? Any Ideas?

I'll try that as my mechanic cannot look at it till next week, I've been waiting a week and a half, but he's been changing his ramps. Im going to have another look at it over the weekend. Whats the best way to check the injectors?

A local mechanic said it could be air in the fuel line. Where would I look for that?

Thanks, Skinny Mike. Any other suggestions are appreciated. I could really do with getting this fixed over the weekend.

Posted the above in he wrong section, Since the first post I have done the following: Replaced the inline fuel filter Cleaned out the manifold (Which was really coked up) Cleaned the ERG Discovered 1 broken plug on the 1st glow plug. Added more injector cleaner. The car ran okay for...

I Have a 2004 Freelander HSE that has about 103,000 on the clock thats just started cutting out. Over the last month I have changed all the filters with the exception of the fuel one. Recently It has been juddering slightly when it is first started, and if you rev the engine you get a little...

I thought I had. Is there anyway to get it moved? I've just replaced the fuel pump today.

Anyone??

Got a chance to look at this over the weekend, Did the fuel filter on Friday, then de-gunked the EGR valve and the Manifold on Sunday. Whilst I had the manifold off I noticed that one of the plugs on the first glowplug looked like it had exploded (pic) This would probably be the cause of the...

Anyone know what this could be, as I woldnt mind looking at it tomorrow if the weather keeps up?
