Hi Guys I hope someone here can help. 2004 Freelander TD4, 200K on the clock. I passed the Irish equivalent of the MOT and then a week later began to smoke like hell.
Did all the usual checks listened for the hiss from the hoses. Didn't fine one so replaced the lot.
Changed every single sensor and filter that I could. New filters all round, new fuel pump and filter (under the arch) reconditioned injectors. Cleaned out the plastic intake manifold, replaced the gaskets.New MAF sensor.New air temp sensor, fuel pressure sensor and replaced the wiring for same.
It runs OK thought somewhat lumpy. I've pulled the connectors off in order one at a time on the injectors to see which if any of them was not pulling its weight. But got nowhere. I like this jeep but at this stage if it doesn't start pulling it's weight it's off to the scrappy.
Had a guy come out and run a diagnostics but got nothing, just a note on fuel but nothing explicit.
Smoke is blue white which points to air fuel, when you put the foot down it goes black. No whine of the turbo and there's still a good deal of pull when you put it on load. So any thoughts would be much appreciated. I've gone through the links here. I must have the entire TD4 trouble links library bookmarked.
Any help appreciated. You guys have saved me a fortune over the years on fixes that would have cost me an arm and a leg. Keep up the good work no matter what the outcome on my little bundle of joy.
