    what to look for in early TD5

    wasnt being funny mate, i just thought you were ridiculing me for mentioning something that MIGHT affect a TD5. I didnt realise that its very rare to happen, i had been speaking to a mate that has a TD5 (i drive a 300Tdi) and he mentioned that he had been reading about it thats all :) sorry if...

    Mass Air Flow Problem after fitting EGR Plate

    Dont know much about TD5's but has he disconnected all the wiring and hoses from the EGR valve? Has he taken the whole EGR gubbins off, or just put the blanking plate on and replaced the EGR? Afaik if its blocked off its important to disconnect the leads/hoses id have thought more so on a TD5...

    i had exact same problem, didnt try sediment bowl, thats on me list of to-do's lol, mine was being caused by the EGR being so coked up it was sticking open coupled with a collapsing turbo inlet hose.

    It Feels Like fuel starvation

    i had a very similar problem, mine was EGR valve sticking open combined with a collapsing turbo hose. Binned the whole EGR setup and bought shiny pipes and silicone hosing from darton fabrications. Just got back from 2 weeks in cornwall did 1500 miles and disco didnt miss a beat (apart from...

    Intercooler hoses

    shop Just bought a set for my 300. U get silicon pipes to replace the rubber standard ones and some nice shiny replacement metal pipes. I know there for the 300 but email them and they should do u some 200 ones, they are prolly the same anyway.

    need more power 300TDi

    200TDi's run slightly lower boosts than 300 TDI's (0.7bar if i recall) you can wind the wastegate arm in a slight bit on them there are guides out there for this as it involves some work its not as simple as it sounds. Most of the searching i did for increasing boost on 300TDI's resulted in...

    300 tdi flat spot

    yer when i did mine, the inlet was gunged up severely, when i get chance im going to strip it all down and give it a proper clean, i hate to think how far that black gunk can go! Another thing i found was the actual EGR valve hardly moved from its open position, another indicator of why i had...

    300 tdi flat spot

    Yet another quality post by frogfart. Seriously, Unless you have anything sensible to post (instead of flaming probably the number 1 thing to do to your disco if its fitted with EGR) why not hold back and let people who no what there doing offer advice to someone thats having problems. Oh i...

    What to look for when buying a Disco?

    Inner wings, boot floor and sills all have a tendancy to rust away if not looked after, also check the body mounts on the chassis to make sure there not shot. Gearboxes can be a bit of a novelty, 1st to 2nd is normally where they show problems although tons of people say this is easily lived...

    Sunroof fittings?

    Like u major, i too have a v8 with twin manual sunroofs, which i am slowly breaking, it seems my initial response to this post clearly hit a nerve with frogfart. @ frogfart i cant even be bothered to type a witty retort out for yu, id hate for yu to throw another temper tantrum. I started my...
