I have a TD5 90 with a gremlin I am struggling to get fixed where I live.


had the oil in the red plug issue , changed the injector loom and cleaned the red plug. That has not solved the issue. It starts 1st time and runs but not as smooth as before. It will drive for a short while but then the engine cuts out and an engine management light appears on the dash. It restarts no problem and the em light goes out but will only drive a short distance before it does it again.

Any ideas, have put it into local garage but they couldnt get a signal from the obd port , perhaps using the wrong reader.

Thanks in advance.
 
I thought that, but it has no problem starting after it cuts out. With CPS it has difficulty starting i believe.

Don't think the MAF will put the engine light on.
You need a code reader which will read a TD5 as they are not OBD2 compatible.
 
My son has a Foxwell which seems to be ok, diagnosed my MAF sensor and his ABS faults no problem.
Nanacom is far superior apparently.
 
NT530 with Land Rover software loaded onto it. You can also use it as a code reader on other OBD2 compliant cars.
