Thank you!

Where can I get information on operating Hawkeye. I do not like the idea of teaching myself. I think I am only scratching the surface when using it.

I was stupid. Should have looked under ABS. Found and cleared faults.

Where will Hawkeye show faults that cause the 3 Amigos? I have been looking in EMS and found no faults.

I have slight movement on the steering shaft where it goes through the firewall, causing a sound occasionally. I have replaced parts where I had play, one steering link ball joint(tie rod end?) and parts that were not faulty(complete lower steering shaft - universal joints). There seem to be 3...

I changed the injector harness this weekend, but the readings are exactly the same. Seems to me I will get to the bottom of this with the last thing that I do. Will probably be when I replace my number plate light. I also managed to drop a washer. I did not see where it went but it could have...

We had 4 1998 Defender tdi's in the company. They had wonderful engines. On startup there would be a proper puff of black smoke and then nothing afterwards. My tdi did 356 000km before I sold it. Only clutch, turbo and injectors replaced at about 200 000km. Only changed oil and filters from 60...

Works for me!

What can one read into the fact that the readings are so wayward(peaking at -17 for a portion of a second) when idling and within more acceptable limits(+0 to +2, -0 to -3) when the engine is at about 2000rpm under normal load?

I will investigate.

I did not check the bump clearances. I expected that the person who did the engine up would have seen to that. The loom was apparently replaced about 26 000km ago. There is oil on the plug just under the harness plug. My next guess is that the harness is faulty.

Discovery 2 TD5 2002. This weekend I removed the injector cover and checked the codes on the injectors(green). I found that on one injector the last 2 letters were swapped around. Another confusing thing was that there were not 5 letters stored on the ECU but only 4(Hawkeye). This was the case...

2002 Disco TD5 Manual. I am still fiddling to sort out power issues, but I get 10.5km/l on average. I have done about 8 000km since buying it. Speedo now on 195 000.

I retapped mine to 8mm and I am very happy with result. Take care that no filings fall into housing.

Modulator- regulator, is that the same thing? I replaced the unit with the 3 pipes and electrical connection. My question is will the engine run without the correct codes for the injectors on the ECU or will it just be confused by overfueling some and underfueling others? I am loathe to take of...

Power loss seems to be a general complaint. My 2002 TD5 manual occasionally feels like the turbo is not spooling at all. This happens after switching the engine off for about 15 to 20 minutes. After 2km or so it is ok again. I have replaced the actuator. This engine was redone by the previous...

Some fool overtightened mine and stripped it. I had to retap to a 8mm.

I am not familiar with the model you are asking about(South Africa). My advice is that you will either love a Defender or hate it. I had a 1998 Defender 110 Tdi Hardtop, maintained it myself and put 356 000km on it. Sold it and had a Toyota 3l KZ-TE double cab. Missed the Defender in a big way...
