Absolutely no power, couldn’t get up hills in second, diagnostics were reading wrong I.e map sensor showing 119.9c temp and very little range of pressure. Maf sensor showing zero. Now all reading correctly and sounds awesome (straight through exhaust and no cat)

Just to update you all, new Maf and new Map (genuine maf and Bosch map sensor) and all is well with the world :)

Okay mate. I think it’s a 1999, I know it’s a 10p engine but not sure of much more sorry.

V reg and no egr it’s been deleted

So looking at the figures , both maf and map have gone down. The maf does look aftermarket to me aswell so someone may have changed it previously

Thankyou so much!! So the sensor that’s the first sensor in the air box (downstream of the Maf sensor) what does this do?? I’m going to pick my Maf up on Monday so I’ll enquire about a Map sensor also. I did clean this up and it improved things a little. Cheers again.

Hiya mate, my apologies I didn’t explain myself properly. Yes the large sensor in the intake pipe I’m referring to as the maf, yes the aat sensor is in the filter part of the air box. I’m going to take the heat shield off the turbo and check the wastegate arm itself by removing the actuator arm...

If I disconnect the map sensor (the one on the left of the engine as you look at it) it runs really slow. If I disconnect the maf it runs the same, not tried the one just above the air filter itself tho. The wastegate isn’t seized but when I run the “actuator test” in lynx it doesn’t move but I...

Disconnected it exactly the same result. Only improvement is cleaning the map however I’ve also found out the turbo wastegate actuator is faulty

Hi everyone, just got myself the britpart lynx diagnostics. Ran fault clearing then re read codes and I’m getting ambient air temp of 119.9c and 0 on the maf sensor with it plugged in. Checked the wiring and the fuses but all seem okay. Could the maf be faulty and still read 0?? Cheers in advance.

Nah I’m a total newbie here :)

Hi everyone, got a lovely td5 disco 2. If I leave her to stand for over 48 hours she takes a bit of turning over almost like there’s air in the system, then she injectors will kick in one by one, little bit of white smoke and she fires up, runs fine now she be cleaned the Map sensor. If I turn...

Hi everyone, newbie here, just upgraded from a freelander 1 to a discovery 2 td5. Have been doing a bit of off-roading in the freelander and first outing for the td5 coming up tommorow :) The Disco is a lovey motor really enjoying it. Hope to meet ya all at some point! Take it steady! Jamie
