Hi great forum
Got a discovery 2 2.5 td5 and at around 2750rpm it starts kangarooing, swap tested the map sensor the maf sensor mate plugged it into a snap on scanner and it came up with a manifold preasure fault any got any ideas ??? The previous owner changed the injector loom.
Thanks in advance Keith

what was the fault code exactly?
 
did u check the (AAP) ambient air temp and pressure sensor then?....it's the one on the top of the filter housing......u better replace it cos(according to RAVE) :
The ECM uses the signal from the AAP sensor for the following functions:
1. To maintain manifold boost pressure.
2. To reduce exhaust smoke emissions while driving at high altitude.
3. Control of the EGR system.
The sensor also supplies a voltage between 0v and 5v proportional to ambient temperature. The ECM uses this signal
for the following functions:
- Exhaust gas over temperature protection.
- Turbocharger overspeed protection.

Hi is there a test to confirm that the AAPP sensor is faulty ??
 
Sorted
bottom pipe on the accuator control module to turbo pipe missing.
Connected a pipe between the 2 connectors away we go thanks for the advice.

Excellent,so it was overboosting because the actuator wasnt able to open the wastegate.I have seen those little pipes get blown off on hard driven cars - its probably worth using some lockwire to secure them in place.
