Thanks gents... up on the ramps again tomorrow then :)

Hi there, welcome to the forum...... I think it would be best to get a local LPG specialist to look at it. Mine had a LPG temp sensor down so was leaning off the gas causing misfires/lumpy running etc I've since had an upstream O2 sensor fail which again caused overfueling (rich) running. When...

Success!!! I put in a new genuine Bosch sensor and bingo, all sorted! I dropped the battery off for a few hours to lose the adaptive settings then took for a run on pure petrol and its running like a dream :) So, to sum up, I'm not sure what killed the original one? Not sure whether the first...

You've got four codes ther kidda... press the right arrow key to scroll through them.... the only time I've had that error is when I drove it with the sensor unplugged last weekend....

can't help in any way except to say check that pot 6 plug/lead then get it to someone who knows what they are doing and get some live data, its not all abotu the stored codes... hope you get it sorted, keep us posted...

my disco 2.... fluid changed by previous owner looks like standard red dextros II ...and most of it is on my drive !!! should i buy a couple of litres of the genuine stuff and flush and replace before it kills the steering box or am I too late??? :(

oh b****x .... if i get home ealy enough tomorrow i'll be swapping out my new bosch sensor and fingers crossed all sorted! keep us posted pal...

Mine is losing approx 1/2 litre every 1000 miles or so... worth checking the header tank and the cap...

Welcome along...looks very tidy :)

Just checked the MAF and its sitting at 21-23Kg at 850rpm idle at full temp. Seems in spec...

How do you afford to run it then!!! LOL

90,000... running Zavoli LPG as well, not sure whether that kills them early? I keep hearing/reading 100k miles but not everyone is having them fail?

I'm going to keep adding to this with bits I've done and things I've found as there's not a mass of info on the V8's so... Got my meter out and checked the pins in the harness, these were taken with just the ignition on engine not running, readings were: Pin 1 = Earth (from ECU) Pin 2 = 0.45v...

Thanks R222RWD and what is weird is the first time the light came on I was driving down to Aberdovey from Tywyn!!! And funnily enough it did go out for a few days but came back :( I've got a new Bosch sensor to drop in, was going to do it today but the rain asn't really stopped ... Glad yours...

alot firmer than before but not in a bad way! seems to have solved my 'tramlining' and vague steering and returns to standard ride height on first rebound rather than the three/four bounces previously! replaced with OEM contitechs at 180 quid... 30 mins per side and all sorted...no idea why...

thanks eightinavee (like the handle!) there are just a few of us suckers left :( I'll try and get a reading from the maf.... I've been reading the US sites and have read about maf/intake leaks but wanted to rule out what the diags are telling me first :(... always liked Bath and its Roman...

Managed to release the harness end of the connection from the mounting plate on the rear of the engine which was full of oil. Cleaned it all out with brake cleaner and contact cleaner but still nothing. Did a search and found someone else that had changed the sensor without cleaning the plug and...

new rear air springs ....:cool:

Thread Hijack alert! Sorry Andy! Paul, I'm local to you and could do with some live data reading on an O2 sensor I've swapped but still dead :( I've only got iCarsoft which shows its dead with no voltage so was about to pop a post on asking for anyone localish that wouldn't mind helping out?

I know you have to cut the tubenut/olive off the pipe if fitting Dunlops due to them being push fit but do you have to do this woth the Contitechs or are they the same screw in fitting?
