Thats a good idea thanks a lot. My pump has a pressure of 4bar, so I think it's ok.

Connecting earth via a jump lead does not help much. So, between these two frequencies of sound the difference of voltage is 0,1V. Not much.

Hi all, I've some starting issues when cold, a lot of things are changed. For now, I just want to know if you think there is air in the fuel system. My TD5 sounds at the FPR a bit noisy... What do you think? Thank you in advance. Best Mario

Thanks a lot. I will try it with a jump lead. Besides of that I've another question: My earth is going from battery to chassis then to the transfere case. Is this the only earth to connect the engine? I've measured contact resistance from that point to starter case about 0,9 Ohm. Is this value...

Thanks for your answer. Battery is less than a year old, has 100AH and is specified with a cold start current of 800A. I've charged it fully before I made these videos. Just to get sure, no one of you has this issue, correct?

Let me add one more impression:

Hi all, my TD5 is not starting properly when it's cold outside but before discussing this issue I want to know if I maybe have an electrical issue in my car. During glowing, my fuel pump sounds a bit slower and interior lighting is a bit darker. Sound example (please watch the video for at least...

But I know it :D

Ok....thanks a lot, I thought that the Unit Injector System was the loudest, I know that Common Rail is the quitest motor but from your answeres it depends more on the quality of the sound-proofing how loud it is inside the car. I have heard of mats that are permeable to air but also insulate...

I know...Disco/RRC similar and more comfortable....but it's not a Defender - don't know why I have this car but it is good to have one :rolleyes: So the TD4 is a bit quiter, I've heard from a TD4 2.2 driver that he can talk on a normal level on highway and radio is also on "normal" volume...

Hi, I own a TD5 110 and on long journeys (I'm driving the high way to get to the destination) the noise level drives me (sometimes) crazy :confused:. How is the noise level comparable between the different engines TDI, TD5, TD4 2.4 and TD4 2.2? Best Mario

I've fitted the used injectors last weekend after I had them cleaned and recoded (timings) them and the TD5 is starting immediatly. :D

Yes,I've to talk the dealer of the injectors because this was not the only problem https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/td5-bad-start.355885/

Update: I changed the injectors to used ones instead of the refurbished ones and the knock is gone...the used ones has roughly 160.000km on the clock..... Refurbished injectors: Used injectors Same condition, fuel temp ~70°, water ~coolant 90°

Hm...something is wrong with my overhauled injectors...I've got 5 other injectors just for curiosity and the seals fits. I'm thinking about to test them in my TD5 but they are used ones. One of them looks a bit odd: There is soot also on the injector body....what do you think. Clean it and...

Hi, I've cleaned the injectors gently with the back of a knife....the CU washers didn't fit, tested with different washer/injectores. I've measured that the genuine washers has an inner diameter of 7mm, like the tip of the nozzle but moving towards, the nozzle has an diameter of 7,2mm. I don't...

I'm a little hesitant, I don't want to ruin the nozzle, how can I clean the nozzle gently? BTW: The old CU seals ones can be removed and fitted easily...

Today I want to change the seals, the old ones looks like this : I've got new ones original Land Rover ERR6417 and they don't fit! The inner diameter is of the old ones are a bit bigger. The injectors are overhauled from Land Rover...not sure whats wrong now....

I think with the result above, CKP Sensor is not the issue. I've found the genuine injector seals on my desk - I thought I've used them, so I'm not sure which quality the current injector seals have. When I'm doing that, how do I clean the injector seat (cylinder head) and the part on the...

Looks like I've charged my battery yesterday on a drive and now I can measure with Nanocom during the start: This was a "bad" start, I had to hold the starter around 5 seconds...
