Hello all.
First time here for me, so hello to all and thanks in advance for any help/suggestions.
My 2004 Freelander TD4 has recently started to blow black smoke when the revs are above 1800 or so. The kick down is sluggish at the same time, and power is greatly reduced. At the same time as the smoke appears, the interior fan blows harder, whether it is switched on even when it is off.
I've replaced two hoses leading into the intercooler, along with the sensor that sits between the two, (may help you to ID the part, knowing that the two hoses come complete with the sensor in the middle when you order the part here in Tasmania) part number PNH500190. I replacd these as there was some old gaffer tape on the hose which i thought meant had failed at some point, but i can't actually see any holes or slits in the old hose.
Anyway the car still smokes, power is still reduced and the interior fan still blows even when switched off. I've made sure today that the hoses were secured well.
Any other ideas i can try before surrendering to the main dealer and there prices?
Cheers
Matt
