I've just realised the problem pre-dates the hose being damaged. I'll change it anyway just so I know it's OK.

Hi thanks for the replies, The MAF was not a Bosch one I believe it was Allmakes 4X4 the garage charged me about £90+VAT for it. It came with the housing as well. Not just the sensor. The tuning box is not a Ronbox it's a Diesel Express one. I have had it turned off since the sensor problem...

Hi all, I have spent the last few weeks reading every post, article, tech bulletin I can about this subject and I still have some unanswered questions. I'm hoping you can help. I'll try to keep the back-story brief but informative/useful: Bought car about 3 months ago and it was very...

I did my little modifications one at a time so I could measure the difference each one made to the way it ran and the EGR was by far the most dramatic improvement especially at the low end. Mine was pretty clogged. I think there was hardly any air getting through at low revs. I'd recommend...

Have you removed/cleaned the EGR valve, replaced the crankcase filter and checked all your hoses? Mine had terrible low end torque when I got it (almost stalling all pull-off) but after doing these things it pulls very well now (without the tuning box) Still a few extra horses is nice too!

Hi All, I'm considering swapping the seats in my commercial TD4 for something a bit more comfortable and leathery! You can generally pick up half-decent leather front seats on Ebay for £100-200 a pair so I thought I'd just keep an eye out for a nice looking pair and grab them. Question...

I have one. I only used it for a week or so. It made a pretty good difference to the low end torque and pulled harder from 2000-3000rpm but I'm having problems with sensors at the moment so I have removed it for now.

I called a place today.. They have been closed for 9 years! (Thanks internet) But I think we can find somewhere to get the hippos dirty in that area. Mudmonsters has been mentioned as well as some other sites but all pay and play. I'm OK with that too. Or we just get a bloody ordinance survey...

If you fancy it we could look for some Kent lanes to do. I don't fancy trying on my own in case I get stuck!

East (hackney) so I guess Hertfordshire, Kent or Essex will be will be my best choice for getting muddy.

No I didn't see the vids I'll go back and check them out. I think a 2" lift is probably next on my list (and some spacers to help with wheelarch clearance and speed bumps) I'll have to look up some places to try offroading near London...

I was checking yours out earlier today. Your thread about you car is great. How does yours perform offroad? I'm really itching to try mine out with a bit of greenlaning or something.

Excuse my ignorance but I don't understand what you mean. Could you explain? --------edit---------- Don't worry I googled it. From the driving I've done today I can report that it's a lot better on the road than it was previously so I'm not concerned about the weight of the new tyres. I assume...

Yeah I think so too. It looks a lot more masculine. Most importantly though it drives so much better. I will warn people though it had had a fairly significant effect on the braking. Bigger discs and callipers would be nice :/

Certainly a lot better than the 205/50/17's that the previous owner had on it! It looked and drove terribly!

I'll take some later and post them this evening. Here a couple of other angles I have on my phone right now.

I've just fitted 245/65/17's to my td4 FL1. I had to persuade the inside of the front arches to make room (but only 1-2mm) Slight rubbing at the rear on one side under hard cornering but it's just ticking the plastic arch lining so I will cut that away a little. Overall I'm really happy...

Thanks guys, I called my local LR specialist and they told me it was the leak off pipes. They've ordered me a new set £24.50. I'll pick them up tomorrow. Thanks for the links! Useful info about the clips! I'm told that they are £13 each!!!!

Morning all, I got up early this morning to change the crank case breather valve on my td4 and I've managed to break one of the plastic T shaped connections on the fuel rail so I have diesel spraying out! Does anybody know the part number for this? Will a local lr garage have it? Should I...
