IMO you are just chasing your tail as long as you dont replace the injector seals to rule them out cos those are the prime suspects for the symptom you described..... as it was mentioned few times by more of us
I had some time this weekend so I stripped all the plastic conduit off the wiring so I could inspect it properly. Top end all seems fine to be honest. Ive left it exposed so I can get to it a bit easier at the moment.
Newbie question: Is it OK...
Update: (full write up for info only!)
Car just did it to me again. About 50kms from home. Was running fine. Then after about 40kms, a very slight loss of power at first and almost undetectable roughness at 100km/h. (My wife could only tell...
You can get them seperately.
Get the copper washers and the o rings, genuine.

And maybe the camshaft cover gasket

I'd replace it for a Freelander :vb-bouncy:
Mine's got the same TD5 engine... less 1 cylinder... and the common rail gubbins.
For sure its slow, smokes like a steam train and sounds like a tractor... but it ooses 'character' :cool:... or maybe...
Lucky I have decent ears. Heard you calling whilst in the Freelander section. ;)
I, like lots/most LR owners here, get my parts from the same places peeps in the UK do. My personal preferences are lrdirect.com and Rimmers. But your Paddocks...
UPDATE:
Local mechanic found following faults:
We didn't think either of these were likely related to my problem. But we could be wrong! Someone here might know differently?
Anyway, this is what they did:
AKA not very much!
BUT car has been...
Guys you have all been very helpful.
I have the car booked in to my guy Monday. Since this list is getting long and a bit like chasing ghosts, I'm going to get him to check for fault codes, and clear them. Maybe blow out fuel lines. Replace...
OK thanks for all this guys. Very helpful. I've reconnected everything up.
I've noticed that the start is now a bit lumpy and occasionally doesn't catch. Car usually starts on first crank. I was reading this other post...
Hi, the red connectors look fine as does the black connector on the cylinder head cover. On a side note if you want to stop the oily mess around the cylinder head cover area (mine was like that as per my pic, post no 3) you can replace or reseal...
Unwrap that chafed section and inspect the wires that's the only way to rule it out but if it was a wiring issue on the injector inputs there shoud have been many injector related fault codes stored, when there is missfire without any codes it's...
I mean if it was a problem with those washers, wouldn't I expect to have that issue all the time? Instead it shows up 2 years ago. disappears, and then reappears again randomly.
Thanks guys this is all very helpful. Car is now booked back in with the same mechanics who are the only ones around here with a scanner that can access the LR codes. In saying that though, there weren't any of any concern last time. And the...
Hi all. I'm a newbie to the Landrover scene. I have other vehicular obsessions but my appreciation/curiosity for Landrovers is relatively new. Having lived in the South Island of New Zealand I got into some 4WDing and really appreciated how those...
Hi there. I'm a LR newbie and I'm based in New Zealand. 2004 D2 Td5 Auto.
After running well yesterday on a 300 km round trip up to Auckland, car starts to run rough as if its lost a cylinder, and then 500m later it just stalls and I coast to a...
