only on start up but smells rich all the time running
i put in what was recommended 10w40 !!!
It is niether it is more of a light grey smoke, and also the smell is not normal, very rich, i have worked with deisel motors for over twenty years but never been a mechanic. i know it isnt normal. so was just open for any possible causes. it seems to have got worse since changing oil approx 1 month ago.:doh:
Hello and thanks for advice, I didnt do an engine flush as wasnt recommended like you say. Also i haven't lost a drop of water from the radiator system since ownng landy.. which is good.. i know to well about head's going etc, as i once owned one of them foriegn toyota things and had the unfortunate pleasure of having to have a new cylinder head.
never again... Landy now through an through..i am going to get a friend of mine to take a look at it now i think, cause i know nothing about the workings of diesel engines.. once again many thanks.Welcome To LandyZone, the Land Rover Forums!
