    Diff Lock problems

    Perhaps the switch in the gear box responsible for the diff light is malfunctioning. I had this problem, diff locked perfectly but the light didnt turn on, change the switch and it was back to normal.

    TD5 starting issues

    I think you are right.. It does sound like it cranks slower than usual... I will attach cables to it tomorrow from an other car and check if it makes any difference.

    TD5 starting issues

    Yes when it fires it runs absolutely normal and smooth. The pump is not noisy but it has produced weird sounds like three times in the past 6 months , as if it is purging air. I will change the filter soon.

    TD5 starting issues

    My friends 300 TDI starts right up without glow plugs in this weather. I have not replaced them yet but I did check them about 7000 kms ago when I took the manifold off to clean all the gunk in intercooler and related piping. I took them all out and test individually all of them were...

    TD5 starting issues

    Thanks man. I changed the fuel filter about 17000 kms ago. We do have poor diesel quality tho. I can change that again to narrow down. What are you suggesting about the injectors and pump? Do they need to be changed/cleaned/calibrated etc? I can hear the pump in the tank working so I...

    TD5 - gutless at low revs

    Cleaning your inter cooler and intake manifold and then disconnecting your EGR so that intercooler and manifold dont get gunked up again should do it if all else it working fine.

    Right!! Would any one know how much do the half shafts cost? Mine is a 2001 TD5, 110 crew cab and it has a big square like rear diff, I would really appreciate if some one can give me part numbers for the half shafts. Cheers!

    Advice on buying a TD5

    Go for it!! I have a 2001 TD5 110, No issues what so ever. I think you should get a 2002-03 onwards year. As far as I know there were some manufacturing defects in 99 and 2000 years. For eg. oil in the ecu socket, oil pump bolt coming loose and one or two other issues.
