As you can imaginized, situation and symptoms change, I just make a 1200 motorway trip, initially with smoke on idle speed. But after a full the diesel tank no smoke, now there is some smoke and little bit log start (I assume luck of diesel), after that everything normal. I´m pretty sure there...

1. Yes 750 rpm is idle speed. 2. Smoky engine is on cold and hot engine. 3. The injector ruggeness on the hawkeye is in parameter from 0 to +/-8. My hypothesis is the o-ring, the only concern is, are the symptos right, anyway it is a cheap spare part. Thanks to all Please don´t forget to...

Ok, a resume about the symtoms and disagnostic: 1. There is a lot of white smoke, specially at 750 rpm, speed 0 kms/hr. 2. There is no starting problem. 3. When the LR is at speed slow or fast, there is no extra smoke, not even w/ or w/o turbo. 4. A friend talme that the smoke smell like...

Mmm, sound like the injector sealing, I´ll get some seal and o-ring change them out and tell you back, thanks

Could be an option. Yesturday I spent 5 hr at the mechanist, he asses it is some problem with the injectors, there is some leaking (some cracking at the start a and white smoke at low rev´s). Next step will be to check the adjustment of each of them. HAWKEYE, doesen´t show any specific...

Plus no starting problem, only at 750 rpm

Thanks a lot, I have the feeling that both problems are related, I have more symptoms: 1. There is no lack of power. 2. There is gray smoke at idle (750 RPM). 3. The gas/diesel consumption increase. I send the LR to the mechanich because it mekes 400000 kms and he adjust the injector, my...

Dear all I just got my 2000 D2 Td5 (400000 kms) back from the mechanic. He explain me that the injectors where wrong adjusted and I change the fuel filter base. Now I have the following sintoms: 1. The fuel pump doesn´t stop working and making noise, I assume there is an “open” somewhere...

I allready did that, and doesn´t work

Dear all I got my rear door unable to open, the interior and exterior handles seems to work fine, the central locking too. For mi it is the locking mechanism to the car body it is no doing its jobs. Everything will be better if I have the door open, which it´s not the case. Do anyone knows how...

Ok, thanks. the next qustion might be another topic, but I´d like to know how could I improve the 3.5 or 3.9 engine. better engine is less gas
