Td5 heads can crack between the water jacket and exhaust ports resulting in pressuring the cooling system.

Did the freelander doors fall off afterwards

Have you undone the oil pipes under the turbo. There’s a there’s also pipe clamp on the block holding one of the turbo pipes

Airflow going up and down is to be expected but when pushing on it should get up around 600. That’s why I thought values were low

Some td5 are only 2 track

Unplug the Maf sensor and take it for a spirited drive.

Throttle pedal values look ok to me.

Was you driving it when logging as air flow values are low.

As you said it’s fine when warm, are you getting a reading from the coolant temp sensor, as it’s probably used in the fuelling strategy

The new defenders don’t have a dipstick it’s electronic so it would be good to know what he was looking at

The reason I asked is a friend of mine had a similar warning on his vehicle, but after diagnostics it turned out to be the adblue sensor at fault. I’m wondering if the mechanic who came out to clean dpf actually did any diagnostics or went straight to pumping crap into the car.

Who diagnosed a blocked dpf in the first instance?

Probably means your code reader isn’t compatible with D4 suspension ecu

You need the g4 gap if it’s a later D5.

Lift rods work ok but limit how much extended off road height is available as you have already used 50mm of the available travel. Same result can be achieved using a gap tool to increase the suspension either permanently or as and when it’s needed. Or there are blocks that fit onto strut that...

Works fine for me. No problem over last few weeks.

Looks like a warn 8274.

Glencoyne sell the best ones in my opinion. Avoid the bearmach ones , I fitted them and had vibrations throughout the car, swapped immediately for Glencoyne and problem resolved , been fitted years now and after plenty of hard off roading still appears to be in excellent condition.

I’ve got the electronic locking rear differential fitted on mine. It seems to work a lot of the time even in on road situations, also sometimes it doesn’t fully lock as the computer sees fit, in rock crawl and mud and ruts it fully locks.
