I tried using fade and ballancevto do each speaker but they all fail under deceleration. In fact it seems to be engine revs. When stationary foot down I have sound foot off it stops until the revs settle to tick over then it’s back? So strange

99k No good this morning. Thick smoke, unburnt fuel smell, clattering engine and dies when revved. After a few restarts it was ok. So when’s to buy bread. Really didn’t want to go when I came out. Took about 15 goes but finally it just stared properly. I tried the water trap and found the diesel...

Yep loads of fuel. You could smell the unburnt deisel vapour! Seems ok now just back from a 60 mile trip but had to stop start 10 times in the first 5 miles.

Fired the td5 up today and it sounded like a bag of spanners with moss’s of black smoke then stalled. I had to take the kids to the airport and it died a few times. Goes very lord loses power then stalls, turn it on again and it’s fine for a bit. I checked the water trap. That was clear. Seems...

Now that makes sense I’ll try it as soon as I can

That’s the weird thing. It’s not aerial because it effects the cd too. The speakers are individually wired but it effects all 4 simataniously so must be at the connector block back. But I’ve tried waggling them when stationary with no affect. I though there may be a short somewhere sapping the...

This is really baking my noodle so ideas please. My stereo only works under acceleration and cruising. It crackles in and out on deceleration and goes silent when braking. It’s the same for radio and cd. The lights and display remain unchanged. All 4 speakers effected So far I’ve... Replaced...

Sorted! Goes like a train again. Thank you so much guys. It would have been a long journey home at 45mph! And I’ve learned a bit more about the old landy. Cheers

Defender. Bust found the middle yellow fuse blown under the drivers seat and the relay has a broken spring. I’ll try a repair with a freezer bay tie....

Silent! Is it in the tank?

Ok. Red connector now spotless and waste gate free. Still no go.... any other ideas? Please.

In Dordogne for another week. I’ll try to get some solvent cleaner.... everything here shut on Sundays. Will check the waste gate too. Cheers

Wasn’t too bad. Wiped it & wires with kitchen roll. Still no change though.

Ok. Thanks :)

It’s oily.....

Yes low speed is fine full throttle. Just tried Marconi reset. Disconnect battery.... and the Maf... no difference. Is it in limp mode?

Hi. We’re on holiday in France and today the landy started to play up. It feels like fuel starvation. Starts and drives fine but traits to judder at 50 in 5th and won’t get past 60 mph. No smoke... I changed all filters and oil 2 weeks ago. Any ideas? Had new injectors and harness 20k ago. Any...

I can’t find a drawing anywhere for this single nut set up. There is no spacer between my bearings? No wonder they burnt out! I need to check all 4 now. Can I buy a spacer separately?

Perfect! Thanks Brown

Hi all. I developed wayward steering on just before the 200 mile drive to my sons wedding this weekend and found the wheel bearing lock but loose. Is the crushed nut type whic had been reused a couple of times by the look of it. I did it up tight and off we went. Yesterday 400 miles later the...
