Yesterday I fitted a 2nd hand turbo and actuator and it seems to have sorted my boost issue...

Well I went 15 miles to get it and it did t faulter....on the way home stupid no boost mode again with periods of it deciding it wants to boost....I think actuator is next but only after I meet up with someone off the forum link you sent me who has offered to read it with his nanocom...so I am...

Well I purchased a fan shroud today and has made not one bit of difference to temp or my issue

Thank you

Found replacement shrouds on eBay for £15 upwards so looking at a new one of them going to change that temp sensor in fuel pressure regulator since I can get them for £6.79 from local parts store and you recommend I buy a replacement air con fan? Cheers

Thanks for the tips I will check that link...so is the temp sensor in the fuel pressure regulator that simple to sort ...I thought that required buying a whole unit...mint if not :) again thanks for the pointers you really are helping a lot

I can’t afford a diagnostic of my own and don’t know anyone with one ....my code reader doesn’t read my crappy td5....£6.79 coolant temp sensor cost me and mr muscle is great as a turbo/egr/waste gate cleaner....as for fan shroud I only noticed this morning on anothe td5s pics I had something...

Yes...it wasn’t it wasn’t siezed as they all are so I got a generic 12v fan soldered on landrover plug and attached with cable ties lol

Yes I do have air con....which sort of works lol....I have made a shroud from the side of my old fridge to test whether that gives me a few less degrees on the temp gauge and hopefully curing my issue....I’m still on the train of thought that the issue is heat related...I may well be wrong lol

Changed the temp sensor and still no joy ....seems I need to fork out for a diagnostic code reader....truly doing my head in now...I know when it comes down to it it’s only going to be something simple too...Sod’s law...also discovered part of my fan shroud is missing ....is it needed or can I...

I have just chucked in £7 temp sensor and mr muscled the exhaust side of the turbo let’s see if that’s helped

Thanks for that...the jeep temp sensor doesn’t fit the plug on my Land Rover which I kind of guessed...I hadn’t actually considered that there may actually be an issue causing it to get hot as you say but only saying half way on the gauge...I guess I need to find a nanocom

Hi all and thanks for the replies....yes I did clean the red plug at ecu too....my obd2 reader doesn’t read it so will have to ask see if anyone has one of them nanocom doo daas lol...if I unplug the temp sensor would that fix the issue same as if you disconnect a faulty maf....just to fault...

ive had my td5 a few months now and when I first got it power delivery etc was faultless but not long after I got it it developed a fault that I haven’t been able to trace....I’ve googled it and trawled through hundreds of pages and since joining yesterday I have tried to find the answer on this...

Thanks

Hi I am new to the forum and I drive a disco 2 td5 which I love to be fair...I had another 4x4 before the disco and it just was not a scratch on the disco for space capabilities etc ...I got it as a project and had to do some welding etc to get it through mot....went laning one day and destroyed...
