    TD4 sluggish

    'probably' does not justify a garage advising you to replace injectors at a cost of £900. I recently had a fuel injector problem which has been resolved... thread thread https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/td4-p0263-solved.321078/ page 3 provides link to buy leak test kit from ebay, as...

    No speed beyond 30 mph!

    Yep, I replaced my top intercooler hose not too long ago after finding a hole made by the screwhead underneath. I replaced the set of hoses with silicone ones from DPH Sport as they happened to have purple set on sale cheaper than other colours at the time. Well worth checking all the hoses for...

    Maybe I was lucky, the kit I received had correct measurement scale numbers on all bottles (1-10 from bottom to top)... good value indeed, lol :)

    guineafowl21... Thanks for your kind words; the issue was solved in large part by contributions from yourself and others. It was only proper that I concluded with result, good or bad.

    Freelander 1 TD4 - (P0263) - [SOLVED]

    Happy days...:) Had injector no.3 removed and replaced with the injector from no.1 that was originally replaced with recon injector. Car is running tip top again with steady idle 780rpm... no misfires, and when fault code cleared and re-scanned during idle no more injector fault codes detected...

    Freelander 1 TD4 - (P0263) - [SOLVED]

    guineafowl21... icarsoft diagnostic flagged inj no.1 as faulty when revs below 1500rpm and when replaced with recon inj exact same issue and diagnostic report. Possibility arose that recon could have also been faulty, but now that leak test has been done, no's 1,2,4 look to be within range of...

    Nodge68... I only got the inlet manifold and parts back on car yesterday, as old back injury surfaced last Thursday night after I had been working on the car (fractured my spine and dislocated a couple of joints some months ago). Will go to local garage tomorrow and ask them to do a...

    Freelander 1 TD4 - (P0263) - [SOLVED]

    Inlet manifold cleaned and all parts back on car.... still not running right. Injector leak test done and results are a bit baffling... icarsoft diagnostic scanner continues to report injector no.1 at fault, but makes no mention of injector no.3. Pictures of leak test attached (no.1 injector...

    Nodge68... I will take care with the Map sensor, and clean as per your recommendations. I will pay close attention to the condition of the rubber gaskets and clean them carefully. I will also check the grooves they sit in and thoroughly clean to make sure no crusty gunk stops a good seal, and...

    Freelander 1 TD4 - (P0263) - [SOLVED]

    Yeah, not shocked about air blowing from no.1 and expect it was leaking from others as 5 of the top 8 bolts were not even finger tight, Also with manifold off found a 4mm vacuum hose that has burnt thru (the one next to hose that goes to egr blank). Cleaning not going to plan, asked the wife to...

    Freelander 1 TD4 - (P0263) - [SOLVED]

    I assume the garage that fitted recon injector had the inlet manifold off to do the job. The first thing I noticed when taking the manifold off was that the bottom nuts were all overtight as I had to use 'gorilla' strength to undo them... but I was astonished at the top bolts as only 3 of them...

    GrumpyGel... Thanks for the heads up, I will be extra careful around the gunk... her indoors would not be best pleased if I bring any in the house. :)
