  • hi, after reading your post on pressure in airbox TD5 my land rover disco TD5 2001 started pressure in airbox along with knocking noise through air box and sudden loud tappet noise. does this sound the same as yours did ? if so did you find the cause of the problem? hope you find time to help me out.

    Hi Robert, to be honest it wasn't good news. In the end I ended up removing the head to find I had a bent inlet valve. I get talking to a guy at Land Rover and he told me it wasn't unheard of the they have had a number of them bend without contact with a piston etc. have you plugged it in? What codes do you get
    hi Drewsp38, you posted a thread offering a pdf of the manual for a p38, do you have one for the 2.5 diesel you could email me please as I have struggled to find a Haynes version. Thanks Martyn.

    Thanks for reply, no codes have come up, guess its the head off, will let you know how it goes, should know tuesday. Just hope like you it hasn't hit a piston or damaged bore. I'm on 101,000 miles.

    Also did yours boom down the air box? And if you don't mind what did you have done to put it right? Oh and did it all of a sudden get a really noisey tappet? Thank you for your time, Robert
