    Landrover discovery 2 wont start

    - Ignition on - Tighten all the earth points behind the ECU - Check voltage between battery negative post and fuse 1 (in the engine compartment fuse box) should be 12v. If not, you probably have a problem with the main relay - Try resetting the inertia switch if you haven't already, however I...

    Injector seals

    Just disconnect all the glow plugs and check the resistance from the glow plug connector to the engine, resistance should be very low like less than 3 ohms. Do this for all the glow plugs

    Disco 2 TD5 is dead since almost 2 months..

    May not be the issue, but it's not too unheard of for the gauze filter in the fuel pressure regulator to be blocked. Have you definitely got fuel returning to the tank? Also, I see you said you have checked the outputs with diagnostics, does the ECU say that its immobilised? The BCU may be...

    Discovery TD5 ECU Relocation

    Did this today for anyone who is interested, however, I struggled to get the loom to stretch where I wanted it, which was behind the driver mounted to the roof, just wouldn't reach, so I'll have the weld some studs into the roof above the drivers at some point. If you look on the bulkhead next...

    Throttle Position Sensor

    I've set it to 2 track and it does seem to operate nicer, seems to have less lag pulling up to junctions and doesn't stall as much off road where throttle response is key. Thanks for the responses though. Now I just have to bleed to clutch line to sort out that pesky engine flaring. Changed...

    Throttle Position Sensor

    Ahah. This would make sense. I did see they only fitted them to later models for accuracy. My pedal seems to react 0-10v on track 3. When the pedal is 0% Track 3 reads 0v, when the pedal is 100% it reads 10v, hence why I'm wondering, because my ecu has been set to a 3 track sensor. I'm...

    Throttle Position Sensor

    Hi Guys, I have a quick question regarding this bit. Does anyone know how to tell the difference between the 2 track and 3 track sensors? Also, when you read back the throttle position with Nanocom or another diagnostic tool, does Accel Track 3 read up to 10.000v? According to the rave...

    Disco 2 diff?

    Lift the front wheel up and spin the wheel backwards and forwards. Then drop that one and lift the back wheel up and do the same. You want to get the diff turning to find out if that's the clunking. Whilst you do this, put the transfer box in neutral and then put it back into high box and...

    Td5 ECU RELOCATION

    Can always add the twisted pair in though. :P

    Disco 2 diff?

    Does it clunk while driving along or is it just on pull away, chabging gear and turning?

    Basic TD5 Diagnostics Tool

    I'm still implementing different bits. But it can get all of the following: RPM Idle Speed Error Road Speed Battery Accelerator Position (all 3 track voltages and supply voltages) Coolant Temperature Air Inlet Temperature Mass Air Flow Ambient Air Pressure Manifold Pressure Cylinder balances...

    TD5 Wastegate Modulator Control

    Hi Guys, I have a question for the guru's in this department. I understand that at high load, the ECU will ask for a maximum pressure of 1.2bar. The question is this, I understand that it takes time for systems to react etc, but has anyone else noticed that when you put full throttle down...

    Disco 2 TD5 fuel issues / starting issues fix

    This non return valve you mention in point 1 confuses me a bit as most of the landys I've worked on, don't have them anyway :confused:

    TD5 lack of power under load.

    I said to disconnect the MAF from the filter box. In other words, bypass thee filter box to see if the intake pipework is blocked!

    TD5 lack of power under load.

    That would be suction noise not air loss. Check the hose connection on the maf sensor. Also have you actually checked the air box and the filter? You may have something blocking the inlet. You could drive it a little without the maf attached to the air box to see if this improve it. Just...

    TD5 lack of power under load.

    Have you checked the intercooler? Thry often balloon from overpressure and leak like mad. Also, I don't think this is the issue, but its easy to check. Have you checked the turbo spindle too?

    TD5 lack of power under load.

    How did you check the MAP sensor? Also, have you checked the injector codes are correct? Just noticed that this is an auto too, I'm not too great with auto's having never owned one, but as I understand, the auto-box can cause various running issues too

    TD5 lack of power under load.

    Starting issue can be caused by alot of things, including injector seals
