People always wanna know what other people get. I've just got an extra 2 or 3mpg by just changing my driving style (more old man), up'd it from 25-26 to 28-29.

A lot of people search for MPG. It's always a bitch with the price of diesel. A challenge to get the old bus running sweet though..

Just the ultimate MPG poll... what do you get?

Service!!

hello could you tell us what the symptoms would be from poorly adjusted valve clearances?? thanks J.

anyone know where to look for info on which lanes are available to use within Ceredigion? thanks J.

thanks Steve110 i'll have to try and find some information on which ones i'm alowed to use.

Hello. The Nant y Moch area is right on my doorstep so i've no excuse for not driving it. Can anyone tell me if the BOAT 's detailed on the OS map are passable in with a standard disco 1 ?? thanks J.

Thanks for the replies. I don't have an air line so I guess i'm just gonna have to get the pliers on it. I haven't had another chance to look yet. Does the actuator rod push out or pull in ? (need to know which way i should be pulling it?) Also can anyone explain to me what the symptoms...

I believe it could be sticking open causing over fueling then smoke at around 2000rpm, especially when coming off throttle. or am i barking up the wrong tree?

hey all. How do you get the wastegate actuator rod to move on a 300tdi? i.e due to it's location I can't get it to move using just my fingers, so i'm not sure if it's seized or working fine. It would be nice to know as i'm having problems which could be caused by a sticking or stuck...

thanks for replies merry christmas i havn't had a chance to look at her yet, too much snow and xmas getting in the way. to answer Q's - it's done 134k, it's non edc

26mpg - booooooooooooooooooo:(

the hessitation is only slight, more of a choke and cough. it is there all the time, I can accelerate through it with ease, the most smoke is when the revs rise to 2k and then back off the throttle. also if i change from 4th to 3rd downhill , revs hanging at 2k - then accellerate, will...

thanks for replies. Recently flushed intercooler, no excessive oil/muck in it, no oil in intercooler hoses, hoses not delaminating but they are a bit soft - maybe need renewing. I did once try flooring it when it smoked/hessitated - I got a huge trail of white smoke behind, completely filled...

interesting.... i had a search for tdi wastegate probs and came across a useful trailerfitter vid on youtube. I just had a poke under the bonnet, but dark now so had to give up.. It looked like the fatter rubber pipe from turbo to wastegate was splitting. I didn't want to push it too hard...

Yes the smoke is sometimes blue. what do you think the problem could be then? this has been an ongoing problem since I bought the disco. I've done a whole list of stuff to her but nothing remedies the smoke:(. is a sticking wastegate unstickable?? thanks for reply.

Hello. I've got a '95 disco 300tdi with a smoking problem. Will smoke around 2000rpm with engine hot or cold, slight hessitation too. Otherwise the truck is running good. Is there a simple way to test the injectors while still on the vehicle? I read somewhere that if you loosen the fuel...

Thing in this months LRO mag workshop section about a def 300 that wont go over 60. they reckon fuel injection pump is the prob..
