    Missing plug? Discovery 2 TD5

    Maybe it is for the special cradles LR use when changing gearboxes out, i.e. they use it to bolt the cradle to for the gearbox jack. Can you feel or see an "end " to it? I've not heard of wading plugs on TD5s but that doesn't mean much!

    TD5 stalls on hill starts low power

    Check the MAP/IAT sensor. Mine did that. With help from on here I checked the data while it was running which proved that even though clean, it was fubar.

    Help! D4 SDV6 clacking noise

    Hi, I'm in France, south east Tarn, but there are a lot of us over here who would be willing to help/advise. Whereabouts are you? Depending where you are there may be independents who would be more willing to help you.

    Still no clue on the car? Thort at first it just might be a 356a but the bump in the bonnet knocks that on the head. Italian thing? And thinking about it the glove box is dead wrong for the Porker too. Bound to be summat Frog or Eytie.

    I had a quick search, not by part number, just a generic search for "injectors for TD5 engine", and like you didn't find a good pic of the bit we both want to see. Hopefully someone else who has taken them out will know. But if it was running fine before??.....
