Evening all,
Just joined the site and thought I'd ask some fellow owners as I currently have no access to a phone nor a local mechanic until next week. The past two weeks my Defender has been misfiring (infrequently on the very odd occasion and today on the way home has clearly indicated something isn't right. My first thought is a fuel injector giving up on me but my main reason for posting is if there is anything I can do myself over the weekend that is worth checking (MAP sensor etc). before I see the local mechanic, I have a new battery to put in, EGR blank and exhaust (had delivered weeks ago and given lockdown was looking forward to having something to do and then looks like other problems are going to need dealing with (F**k sake)…..A list of things to check starting with the simplest leading up to the more technical is what I could do with if you've had the same thing before and is it advisable to stop driving it to work now. Best wishes during lockdown
