I think we are singing off the same hymn sheet in that I am unhappy with a full throttle start as the oil has not enough time to get around all of the engine. I stated above that I have read somewhere that the throttle should be pumped once before foot off and crank. You suggest two pumps and I...

I have always had a small delay, more so on cold days; which is where my theory about having two maps - one for starting and one for running. However Fery has debunked that idea. The delay was at most about 10 seconds now, or before I tried this full throttle start, 10 seconds is about the...

You were describing my start up procedure before the ECU failure. I am concerned that I may have to start under full or very high throttle as my oil light takes a few seconds to extinguish. I wonder it my problem is oil pressure related. By the way I have an automatic gear box which attracts the...

I actually managed to produce the files! I hope these two, no idea what happened to the third, are of use!

I have tried three starts. The first I 'pumped' the throttle continuously until the eighth pump when the engine burst into life; OK so far. Then I started the engine again after a pause. I pushed the throttle full down and cranked the engine; I could not get my foot off quick enough as it burst...

Just spent £500 on this 'replacement' and I do not want to spend another £500 (580 euro)! However I am thinking of contacting the vendor and see it he has another ECU. Duck pink Elephant flying past...

I was advised by the chap who looked after the Engine ECU, at JLR, that throttle peddle pressing was not required upon starting up and up to the insertion of this replacement engine ECU I have never needed to press the throttle upon starting. Experience in the past, post fitting replacement ECU...

Pressing the throttle had zero effect upon the delay except perhaps prolonging it. Prior to when this whole issue broke out there was no requirement to press the throttle until power was required to move off and before the engine ECU change this was a maximum of 10 seconds not the 120 seconds...

I think I have found out how to put on the site.These three are in fact Excel files. I hope that you can read them!

Finally managed to create requested files, however the site has refused the files as they do not have the accepted file extension! Therefore I will post the three files below. Clumsy I know but I do not have the ability to change the file extensions on my Mac... The below tables do not line up...

Nanocom and Rave would align if you reverse the lines. To explain Rave has W, X, Y and Z reading from top to bottom. If you reverse these such that W now becomes Z, X becomes Y, Y becomes X and Z becomes W then the truth table lines up. But I am happy that the error is Nanocom and not my former...

Russel 1, It would appear that your idea has merit! I tried to start in Neutral and it would not crank. I have always suspected the xyz switch so I replaced this with one I had. Also I interrogated 'Rave' and found the truth table for the Disco2. The 'Rave' truth table and the vehicle table...

Russel 1, It hasn't been said but at the moment I am open to any possible idea. I would stand on one leg and crank with my left hand if it would start properly...

I have attempted to capture several starts. However apart from the delay reducing I am having trouble accessing the files. I will ask my computer savvy niece to assist on Monday. Until then thanks for your assistance and watch this space.

Just back from weekly shop. Initial start up 12 sec, start at supermarket 30 mins later 34 sec. There is something very wrong with this vehicle! Will try your suggestion soonest.

PopPops, I know how to switch them on and even use some programs but after that I just press enough buttons until I fumble over the answer; or more often not! I do have an in built proclivity to always find the way to screw them up... So basic is good!

Ben, I have wondered if the throttle was misbehaving but as you can depress the throttle in the delay from crank to throttle authority with absolutely no effect on the engine, and some times longer than 120 sec if you press the throttle before the delay expires. However I need to interrogate the...

About to walk into town - no parking problems - and find the smallest SD card that I can. Then having read the blurb from the Nanocom site I will attempt to format it on my v old laptop that still runs a MS OP. I do have some MS items on my Mac - outlook - and somewhere is Excel which apparently...

Thanks for your input. Clearly this is one of those problems that needs to be worried to death or until we trip over that one fault that is tripping everything else. Not sure what the CSV file is or how to upload it, or indeed how to save it. I have tried a SD card into the Nanocom but it keeps...

We did three starts, I suppose I should have done more and if I was at work on the test track I would have but on her majesties roads! Start 1/ 44 sec Air flow unknown. (Trouble with Nanocom - it needed to reboot for each start sequence...). Cold start Start 2/ 19 sec Air flow 57 from crank and...
