Hi Guys and Gals I think I solved the mistery. It was the MAP sensor that screwed up and feeded the bordcomputer with misleading information about the ambient as well as the actual Mainfold Airinlet Pressure. Land1998

Hi wosname What mileage do you have on the clock? If you are close to 100,000km or even above, most probably the vibrations are caused by worn out rubber blocks, seperating either the engine and/or the drive shaft/differential gear box from the chassis. So whenever your entire transmission...

I solved my idling speed problem by disconecting and reconecting the wire connection of the MAP (Mainfold Air Pressure) sensor while the engine was running. I have done it previously while the engine was off, with amble success. Cheers Landy1998

Hi Ascott Had a similar problem but with a Freelander Xdi (diesel). In my case I had to exchange the MAP (Mainfold Air Pressure) sensor.

Hi Will No worries mate :) Anyway thanks again for the helpfull tips. Pete

Hi Will The Problem doesn't look like beeing related to the fuel pump. What do you think of the possible influence of the MAP sensor. As I learned in an other Forum, a malfunction of the sensor could have a negative influence on the computer. Peter

Hi Will Thanks for the detailed information, I'll follow this path and check the proper functionning of the fuel pumps. Thanks for the hint and best regards

Thanks boys and girls for your great support... All your answers fit into the symptons of my case, however I am still missing the final clue. Especially in light of the fact, that the iddling speed behavious seems to be somehow related to the level of diesel in the tank. The higher the level...

Has anyone experienced similar problems and figured out it has something to do with the diesel supply?

Hi Charlotte Thanks again for the very competent reply. I had the car in service and checked via the computer analysing device, which showed that the output voltage of the potentiometer is constant but the calculated value is playing up and down. Another phenomenum I discovered is, whenever...

Hi Charlotte Thanks for the tip, I’ve already measured the resistance of the potentiometer and couldn't find anything unusual. Do you know, whether the accelerator percentage is calculated only on the base of the potentiometer readings or are there other values taken into consideration...

Since a couple of weeks I am facing problems with my iddling speed. It sometimes stays up at 1250rpm and only after releasing the break pedal, it falls down to 750 to 800rpm. Every know and then, the iddling speed goes up to a maximum of 3000rpm without any interfeerence. I also notice, that the...
