Before you go for a pump, try changing the fuel pump relay. I had a similar issue and it turned out to be the relay. Swap number 2 with 3 or 4 with 2.

Might be worth while replacing fuel pump relay too. I had similar issues with mine and the relay was main culprit.

I have had a similar noise, doing pretty much the same. Been there for a few months, but i've had bigger problems trying to get it working.

Apologies for bumping this up again... Update: After weeks of trying so many things and problem solving, finally got to the bottom of it. With the help of the brains of a work colleague and his ways/methods of diagnostics, we found out that we had an electrical issue. Two relays were faulty...

Cheers mate! I have emptied the tank, the fuel i pulled was absolutely disgusting...as if there was fungus in the tank. Got new filter on filled with diesel conditioner, just went and got a 20ltr can filled with V-power diesel from Shell. So hopefully tomorrow that will go into tank. Cleaned...

Wee update.... I have now changed the injector harness. Although the engine feels a lot smoother when driving, the initial problem of losing power is still there! The two lights that come on when i lose all power for a few seconds are: the engine management light and the water in fuel...

Ok i've not had a chance to check the loom. But if there is oil in the plug, where do i get another loom from? Dealers? Ebay? Scrappies? I have quite a few faults developing over the last week or so, and they all seem to common issues, wipers only working on constant and fast speed, both rear...

Thanks for quick reply guys! Using phone to read comments, will have proper look once I hget home. Also apologies for picture quality, was a wee rush job lol. Sam.

Hi folks, Having some issues with the TD5. During a journey it simply loses all power for a few seconds. Connected the scanner and below is what comes up from engine management. I'm not fussed about the EGR valve, as that's been blanked off. I was getting this problem before i blanked it...

Have they fixed the problem yet? If not, take the car to an independent garage and ask them to replace the motor...and you supply the motor, that way all your paying for is the labour.

Cheers peeps... Bought a 2000 TD5 ES for the missus about a month ago. Being doing few changes here n there for it, starting with the new shape lights, bumper and grill. Was painfull but got there in the end lol. Then had issues with the ACE system, again extremely painfull but getting there...

Sorry mate, i'm not wanting to get into an arguement with ya....you bring a car to me for an MOT without a screen, i'll just laugh at you. This link is to a site a lot of MOT testers use.

As the title suggest lol. I've just got myself a Discovery TD5...so thought i'd join up here. Great forum for great info!

@OP, where are you based? Can Autoglass not refund you the excess??? Windscreen is an MOT requirement as well as the washers and wipers.
