Yes it can cos once you started it and removed the jump leads the battery voltage can drop below 10V which mixes up the ECU, injectors and sensor readings, the more the voltage drops the worst the engine will run untill it stops not working how...

Hi, contact THIS GUY

No it won't, the fuel cooler gets flow direcly from the bottom of the radiator, the return from the matrix goes into a T piece at the end of the cooler where it meets the outlet flow of the cooler when the thermostat in that piece is open cos...

I double checked the coolant flow diagram and i am convinced now that you can simply stop the flow toward the matrix from the top hose with a simple mechanical valve without affecting the engine's cooling nor the fuel cooler's function, cut the...

Hi, if the TPS live readings are as they should in the ECM inputs(track 1= 0.5-0.8V at idle/4.5- 4.2V at full throttle and track 2 = supply - track 1 all the time) while TPS inputs are wrong in the ABS i doubt that changing the fuel map will help...

Only the pedal braking will work this way but without power bleeding the modulator once it was empty of fluid will affect the correct function of all the active braking modes(ABS, TC, EBD, HDC) cos air will be trapped between the OV's circuits...

Yes, you can for test just the ride heights might be a bit different but if you connect it and the compressor will not run like with the original you know that's it. If nothing changes you should swap the fusebox... what ever you swap disconnect...

Hi, which fuse exactly? No, at this point the first suspect is the fusebox or in the worst case the SLABS ECU unless it's a wiring issue somewhere and that coud be a nightmare.

Usually such body parts are obsolete these days, though if you find one in stock it will be quite expensive, google out the p/n based on THIS

If the gauge went above normal means it was too hot already cos it leaves the middle at 120*C and the electric fan kicks in at 110 by default, so if it ran full time means there was more than 110*C and that will kill the engine on a long run...

No probs at all, others did it as well

Yes, you can't acees the matrix other way

That's why i said to undo both pipes and join them together, not hard to do, all you need is a short piece of pipe to insert between them and use the existing clips

The matrix has permannent coolant flow and the heating/cooling is managed by the servomotors which are opening/closing the flaps, when cooling is set the flaps for the heater core are supposed to be closed and all the air should go through the...

We pre-fill some fuel filters with it neat, we've put 2-3 large bottles in with a quarter of a tank and I'm pretty sure it does very little at all but it's great that it's worked for you!

the man mentioned it: I used it myself too once( THIS ) and felt some slight improvement but not more than with Liqui Moly or Wynn's.

That's a classic sign of low gas level, get it regassed at a specialist

Sierrafery is on the money, as long as your immobiliser works, it ain’t getting stolen without a stupid amount of research, work and testing. You can’t even talk to the BCU with the immobiliser enabled, it may be old but it works as it should and...

Even the real owners have problems getting in and starting sometimes :p. I would say its pretty safe as standard. J

Which is safer than any of the newer CAN-bus technilogy these days which are easyer to be acessed by ”specialists” with proper scanners who dont even know how these old security systems were conceived. There is almost zero possibility for an...

Then read the code with nanocom or hawkeye(i dont know other tools to be 100% reliable with the Td5 engine management) but as long as the EML comes on it can be only the crank sensor or TPS unless the ECU is at fault.

Not uncommon for those housings to be cracked see this https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/oil-filter-housing-cracking.392305/

New used BCU arrived today from USA. Car is now up and running! Thank you sierrafery for helping! Best regards

Hi, those codes seem to come from some generic scantool, anyway if it's 10P engine and automatic box the main problem is with the crank sensor or it's wiring/plug hence the EML warning and CAN fault code and the MAF fault is irrelevant unless you...

I've started to run through the diagnostic guide. Solenoid valves resistance, all close to spec: Front/Rear inlets 7.2Ω Front/Rear outlets 3.9Ω Wheel sensors resistance: Front left 987Ω Front right 988Ω Rear left 987Ω Rear right 988Ω (same...

I dont know what's the real problem but as long as they react to the fob it's nothing electrical that's certain

If you hear an activity in the latch while you give any command with the fob or dash switch the problem is definitely not electrical and you might have bought two "tired" actuators which gave up the gost at the same time, it can happen with used...

yes seems so, quite strange... then measure resistances and compare cos even if the solenoid works it might have a resistance out of the diagnostic protocol's range, the whole diagnostic guide is attached

Yes, then if no click double check by splicing into the next solenoid's wire to make sure the click is audible(i tried on D2 and i heard it) so if the RHF doesnt click and the other does you know but if no sound on any solenoids compare...
