Unplug the MAF and run it. If the MAF is faulty you will notice a difference straight away. It defaults to saved settings. Bit sluggish when cold but runs fine once warmed up. Be careful of the cheap chinesium copies if you buy a new one

I have a 1999 P38 2.5 BMW diesel and have fueling problems . I also have a NANOCOM but cannot see anywhere to check the MAF. I have faults logged that cannot be cleared namely GLOW PLUGS FAULT TYPE INVALID FAULT LOGGED CURRENT INTERMITTENT RPM=...

Well guys just put a new duckbill and non return valve in primed and still hard to start, after it's been running it will start strait away but if you leave it 10 minutes it starts but rough for a couple of seconds, have you got any other ideas...

Actually, that's correct. Most vehicles over read by up to 10%. It's a couple of things: 1) protection against speeding tickets, if the car was accurate or under reading, then the manufacturer could be on the hook. 2) the car gets serviced...

And given JLR dont make the phase 2 lights anymore they are hard to find. I need to remove the phase 2 headlamp unit and replace them with a more readily availible model and that is cheaper. Any ideas !?

Been having a bit of a problem with jackals round the house the wolves must have moved away as you don't get both in the same area one benefit got no more mountain hares about so thay have sorted them out ☺☺

So im back to square one. Datateks solution doesnt apply to a 2004 Disco headlamps.

Freelanders going oft road in november

Hello fellow landyzoners! Yesterday, hot summer afternoon, after some driving lessons including several engine stalls and restarts of my old fl1 td4, the starter refused to crank anymore. After towing home, in the chill of the next morning, it...

Blooming hate Jet Lag, was on Zwift at 05:15 o_O It's gonna be a long day in the Office. Anyhoooo, I hope you all slept well and enjoy your day of rest.

Police helicopter over the area during the night and body clock dictating I wake up before 5 on a Sunday. 🥺 Gonna be running on fumes.

Nite

I'm popping off for holibobs a week on Sunday so my ignoring is gonna reach the next level. That's the thing I'm most looking forward to whilst away

Thanks, I'll have a look in the morning for some suitable pipes/hoses to join them together

Just connect them together and see how it goes if no more leaks then you have sorted it and can leave like that or alter pipe work to reduce possible leak points.

Sound, glad I could help. They can be awkward to remove so they were prob cut to make it easier taking them off. Ta for getting back to me. 👍

Would that just be a case of removing the two hoses and connecting them together? Or just get one length of house and connect them both on their sources?

What have I done today... well discovered my cowboy rebuilt wheel cylinder is still leaking, so new cylinders it is! Then I started to change the springs as I have a whole new set to go on (just standard height/duty britpart, nothing special)...

The throttle body heater can be bypassed its not really needed in our climate, that way it will never cause a leak again.

Those type of clips can be tightened up with ceramic tile nippers if any needs to.

Brilliant stuff, should be the same process for the D1 so I’ll run through that and see if I have any luck.

That’s interesting. I will test pin 39 tomorrow for 12v with ignition on and report back. I bypassed the relay today to run the pump and attempted to start. Engine turned over but would not start. This could possibly point to a coil issue?

A couple of my seals just have plastic fir tree clips that have held well bit I've been meaning to replace them with the specific ones Emberton Imperial sell.

Congratulations on your series 3. I've never seen a snorkle that big 😃. Make a list and get cracking. The first job I'd do is Inspect the chassis and get some protection on it.

Yes it's possible, too bad that the nanocom you hired didnt have the alarm menu in it cos at this point it's very suspect if you say the alarm is sounding and you really need to check if the ECU receives the 10AS security code otherwise it's...

Well you have all been ashleep as far as I can tell this eve. So I'll be orf to put the hens to bed and then myself. Sleep tite frens!:):):)
