Good evening! Today I removed all the injectors and checked copper washers and the results are not very clear. There is no indication of leak of any kind on the washers, but there is some kind of brown marks on the injectors and the hole where injectors sit (you can see it on the picture, but...

I have a brand new sensor somewhere, i will install it and see what happens, although it a little wierd, because the reading didn't change when i disconnected the old one. Another thing I forgot to mention is that i sometimes get error related to the accelerator pedal (driver demand something...

I connected the car to the computer again to check a few things, here is some of the things i found: -injector balance/correction is still 0 when cold and idling, and jumps to around 20 when at around 1500 when cold and in neutral, but is isn't very surprising, since it works on 4 cylinders then...

Great idea, thank you! I will also try priming the fuel system before starting the car, i don't expect much, but it's worth a try Yeah, we are really passionate about boring cars, here in Poland it's really difficult to spot any interesting car, mostly old German cars or Skodas : D

I was thinking about that, but I can buy an engine here in Poland for around 600 pounds, so in the end I wouldn't save that much money by shipping it from the UK. The problem is that no one in my city or even nearby wants to work on Land Rovers. Here is the situation now, in short: -Car starts...

Timing chain, camshaft, rockers and everything else under the rocker cover looks great, but to say that car runs badly would be a compliment. I will start looking for new(used) injectors or new engine, since new engine is 4 times cheaper than rebuilding the old one.

Thank you, i will look into that. Tomorrow I will remove the rocker cover and look there again, maybe this time i will find something, but i have to admit that i'm slowly losing hope for this engine.

I drove the car today and the situation repeated - black and white smoke (from unburnt fuel) and runs weird when accelerated while not in gear, but when the car warms up, everything seems to be normal (although still smokes a little bit when driving). Could it be that the car needs some time to...

Hello! I have finally fitted the decat pipe, it took much more time and nerves than i expected, because i couldn't remove the beam that is connected to the frame below the front propshaft and I ended up drilling through the bolts, messy process. Just after fitting, the car was emiting ungodly...

Thank you, as soon as i get my paycheck I will order a decat pipe, i think its time for a new one anyway, because the flexible coupling near the turbocharger doesn't look so good, and they are quite cheap. Maybe I will even hear that sweet, deep noise accompanied by turbo whistle. And if that...

Thank you, I will check how the cat looks (if it's possible on TD5 [now I see it definitely is not possible]) as soon as I get some free time! After blanking the egr, the car runs even better, it has more power at lower rpm and even smokes less, but the problem still isn't gone. I was wondering...

I finally have an update: I connected the car to the computer, there are no faults, live data from all the sensors seems fine and correction on each injector when idling is 0 (jumps a little when accelerating, the max value was +11 for a brief moment on the 1 cylinder, but i think its still...

I checked the egr valve and it looked fine to me, but I think I will order the blanking kit anyway, the carbon dirt on the MAP sensor scared me : D I will also try to borrow a DS150e Delphi from my friend and check the live data

I put the old MAP sensor back on today, i replaced it (for the OEM one) 2 months before the car started smoking, but it turned out it wasn't the problem i had then, so the old one should be good. I will take it for a test drive soon. When I removed the sensor i noticed quite a lot carbon deposit...

Hello everyone! I hope you are doing well in these crazy times! Over half a year has passed since I started this thread, but the problem remains the same, my Disco still smokes like crazy between 1200-2000 rpm and the fuel consuption is not ideal (which makes sense, some of the fuel is...
