It was a warped exhaust manifold after all. To many beans for too long! Have had my manifold re ground flat and no sreech. You beauty.

How do I check the solenoid? where is it? Thanks

Hi All, Disco 2, auto on 03 plate. I have replaced my intercooler hoses, turbo modulator, MAF sensor, 13 threads on my waste gate and lubed joints but the damn thing still kangaroos if you boot it as if an overboost situation is occuring. Also, on the motorway I get slight snatches at 3k-4k...

might be worth checking the union on the green pipe where it meets the pump on the top of the tank. This is the pipe that sends fuel to the engine. it often rubs through and leaks!! cheap and quick to fix but you do need a new pipe and gaffer tape it to protect for the future. Undo pipe at...

I am getting uj screech from the front joint on the Kardan or is my auto box up the swanney. Does not screech all the time but somtimes a little screech appears and goes.

I had the same bother on my 03 auto td5. if i floored it it would cut the fuel and i would kangaroo. I sprayed loads of the in one oil in the wastegate silver jobbie on the turbo with the skinny arm. I then nailed it, fully throttled a few times and it went! It seems to pay to give td5s a...

Yes box oil drained and changed, filter replaced etc. Do you think enough oil went back in? I seem to have more left than I thought I would. Thanks

Please help

Hi All, Just serviced my 03 td5 auto and if left parked or still for an hour when you drive there is sometimes a screech from the auto box? once its done it once it is fine for the rest of a journey - any ideas? The other one is a resonance through the vehicle at around 1800 rpm (buzz buzz)...

It starts fine, runs well unless you really ask for all the beans. If a hose was going/gone surely it would just get worse or reach a peak in lack of performance? I reckon the modulator (whatever that is) or the arm is sticking at the loints. Would this explain the loosening up the...

Hi All, My 03 td5 has an odd characteristic. On full throttle it can feel like the ignition is cutting in and out in big pulses? Much like turning the engine of and on. It does not do it all the time and seems to do it more after a layup of a week or more. If you keep letting it pulse and back...

I run 39 all round in my 300 and it makes a firm ride but great MPG. Drop them down for off road mud work though. High pressures are good in the snow as it gives a crisp response and help keep a new cutting edge in the snow. Ask a Scandinavian rally driver if you ned more snow info. My td5 seems...

FPR I reckon - I have been through three of the damn things! One exploded completely and drained the tank in seconds. bugger

Sorry, you need to look at Welcome to Tree Care Wales

Did you take a bowser to cash in on the cheap fuel? Trouble is if you got a td5 auto you would need that to get back so end up towing the bowser for nowt!

Green laning on the motorway is a tough one, must be a Northern Mway? Do you switch off for horses? Do you get ride-by Highwaymen? Seriously i am looking at getting some Insa's for my old 300 tdi. Thinking of Sahras as they are good mud tyres and seem to be ok on the road. Best bit is they...

Did that and its for a disco 1! the tire size calculator is good as it tells me if I put 65's instead of 55's on they will be two cm taller. Does this mean trimming of arches etc?

Can I fit a taller profile tyre to my disco 11? They are 255/55 18. I wish to put AT2s on but want more sidewall.

Do you mean the pipe seals on top of the in tank pump where the four pipes feed and return? My 03 was dusty but i put that down to 50k of driving over 5 years not seals...... however when one of the pumps was replaced these unions started to leak and new pipes sorted it. Still seems to me...

Is there an easy way to adjust? What parts need to be removed to gain access?
