I’m pretty sure the 3.0 diesel engine in the new defender is a different breed than the D4. Not heard of any cranks snapping in the defender, the majority of the issues in the ingenious engines were in the 2.0 litre that has been dropped by LR.

Could just be the go pedal ain’t being pressed hard enough 😂

Could the ecu not recognise the amount of boost if maybe a boost box had been fitted? I don’t know if one is fitted to the ops car but it was a popular mod on remapped td5.

Think in response 39 I told you to disconnect the maf

Some ****e drivers

Agree with the above, other than the security updates LR send out which LR assist come to your house to do if you ask, no problems to report. Even the insurance has come down after a years ownership, £866 last year with Admiral £687 this year through Swinton with a winch fitted. All good.

Td5 heads can crack between the water jacket and exhaust ports resulting in pressuring the cooling system.

Did the freelander doors fall off afterwards

Have you undone the oil pipes under the turbo. There’s a there’s also pipe clamp on the block holding one of the turbo pipes

Airflow going up and down is to be expected but when pushing on it should get up around 600. That’s why I thought values were low

Some td5 are only 2 track

Unplug the Maf sensor and take it for a spirited drive.

Throttle pedal values look ok to me.

Was you driving it when logging as air flow values are low.

As you said it’s fine when warm, are you getting a reading from the coolant temp sensor, as it’s probably used in the fuelling strategy

The new defenders don’t have a dipstick it’s electronic so it would be good to know what he was looking at

The reason I asked is a friend of mine had a similar warning on his vehicle, but after diagnostics it turned out to be the adblue sensor at fault. I’m wondering if the mechanic who came out to clean dpf actually did any diagnostics or went straight to pumping crap into the car.

Who diagnosed a blocked dpf in the first instance?

Probably means your code reader isn’t compatible with D4 suspension ecu
