Hi
We have a landrover Disco TD5, 53 Plate, I was driving it at about 50 mph when it started making a strange noise and then the Black smoke started, I pulled it off the road and switched it off, but the engine continued to rev for a while and then it stopped.
We got it to a garage and he says there is no compression, but he hasn't had a chance to have proper look at it now, but it looks like it is going to need a new engine, it had only done 68k at the time, which is not much for a diesel engine.
Any ideas on what has happened, also if anyone know how much and where to purchase a replacement engine.
