    Unable to Open Rear Passenger Door

    I had a similar problem, but different solution. My door would open only if I had the key in and turned to the open position. otherwise it would not open even all the other doors were open. I replaced the actuator, but that didint fix it. it turned out to be little round spring in the lock...

    Hey Mudron, How is the chip development going? Any progress? Cheers,

    ECU chip for the 300 TDi EDC controlled Discoverys

    Yeah, that was in the Bolivia Special :) It worked for Clarkson in RR Clasic

    ECU chip for the 300 TDi EDC controlled Discoverys

    Yeah, I also prefer the remap, the box works fine, but i was never easy with fooling the ECU, plus it really seems that it increased the smoke. Until I found this forum (and You) I could find anyone that would do it. I live in Asia, and that sometimes makes things more complicated. So please...

    Is 300 TDI EDC a expedition worthy setup?

    Yap, that means I will have a lot of work, basically any box that's under the dash needs to be sealed. As I said in another posts, that calls for a lot of surgical gloves and vaseline (and don't get any ideas). You put the vaseline on the seals of the box and the connectors then insert into...

    ECU chip for the 300 TDi EDC controlled Discoverys

    Let us know how is that going on the chip. I have the Tunit box, got it under a considerable discount. I don't know what it does to the performance, but I think it over-fuels the engine. Once I turn the screw to maximum position the car starts to smoke like a beast. Otherwise I am very happy...

    ECU chip for the 300 TDi EDC controlled Discoverys

    Thanks man, I will try to move it higher somewhere, because now it sits very low in the footwell. I think a surgical glove and vaseline could do the magic on waterproofing the box and the connector :) If I was to move it higher, I would have to extend the entire loom of cables and that would...

    Is 300 TDI EDC a expedition worthy setup?

    Well, as you can see in the video clip I attached, if on an expedition, its hard not to get wet at some point. So I do understand that the ECU will not survive if submerged, I need to seal it somehow or move it higher. What about the rest, the pump and relays?

    Is 300 TDI EDC a expedition worthy setup?

    I own Disco 1 300TDI EDC Auto. Do you think an EDC is expedition worthy setup? I am preparing for a week long expedition into the jungle of Sumatra with local boys here in Indonesia and I am wondering if I should go to mechanical pump, or get a spare ECU. I like my EDC, but I am not sure...

    ECU chip for the 300 TDi EDC controlled Discoverys

    Just as a side question (and I will post this in a separate thread), do you think EDC is expedition viable? I am preparing for a week long expedition into the jungle of Sumatra with local boys here in Indonesia and I am wondering if I should go to mechanical pump, or get a spare ECU. I like my...

    ECU chip for the 300 TDi EDC controlled Discoverys

    Awesome effort Mudron, FYI, I have Tunit chip in my TDI 300 EDC Auto. I can't say that the millage improved, but there is definitely a lot more power and torque. I really like that chip, though its expensive. Now as I am preparing for an expedition I am contemplating either a spare ECU or...

    Check Engine light after New Timing Belt??

    It could in fact be a coincidence, but it would be very timely, as it just started after timing belt change. But maybe there are some new engine characteristic t exposed the ware in the potentiometer. I will check that.

    Check Engine light after New Timing Belt??

    Not much knock, just a bit, after the weekend I already got used to it. What about the Check Engine light? its kind of weird that it only goes on in tight RPM range. Could it be fuel supply issue? there is no loss of power or anything, car acts normally. Cheers much mate,

    Check Engine light after New Timing Belt??

    Would you suggest to correct it or little advanced timing is OK? I read here that some guys experimented with that. Advance tdi timing... wow - Defender Source

    Check Engine light after New Timing Belt??

    Hi guys, I wonder what you are going to say about this one, because I have not clue what to think. The Story: The first time I changed the timing belt (6 months ago) and I didn't notice any change in car's performance, but someone pointed out to me that it was smoking too much. So I...
