Spoke to Tom this morning. Really nice guy but too far away to help, sadly. Thanks for the tip, and thanks, Tom!

Did the beer thing last night! Rattle coming from the turbo is immense so doubt it is the hose. Fortunately insurance is paying for my hotel for three nights.

Christian Roche is booked until end of month. Bugger! Looks as though I will be doing the work myself. Why did I bring the Disco and not wife's Leon?!

This guy is only an hour from me. I will get in touch with him if I can't get anyone locally to sort it. Great spot, many thanks!!!

Socket set in car. Just spoke to Paddocks who can get me a part tomorrow or Wed. Also have the Haynes in the car.... Car is only 15 mins walk away. Only worry would be shearing a bolt or equivalent.... Thanks for the PM with number, need to get some news on hire cars before I start making...

Thanks, Dave. I had just had the same thought re Paddocks! I am handy enough with the spanner set but my family fly in to northern Spain this morning, hence my hurry to be on the move. Problem is that the Assistance company are handling this now so I am at their call. I am tempted to get...

Hi all, Merrily chugging through France yesterday when I noticed a loud rattling coming from the engine and power seemed a little down, fuel consumption also up. Stopped at side, revved the engine and suddenly got a massive cloud of white smoke. Temp was normal, no lights on dash. Engine...

Booked in Friday for injector seals. Bullet bitten......

Think that is the way I will have to go. No leaks anywhere else and pump seems OK otherwise. Would injector seals have caused the engine to cut out? Gas in fuel line causing a blockage?

Right- had a bit of time this morning and took the fuel pump out. Layer of grey deposit over most of it and much of the plastic gauze filter was blocked. Not a heavy layer of gunge but still not clear. Will refit this afternoon and see what gives. Might look into a new fuel filter while I am...

Thanks for all tips. Will look at injector seals and air bleed first as they are cheaper fixes!

Nope. Alive blanking kit installed.

Thanks for all thoughts. I am left with two conclusions, either injector seals or fuel pump, or both? I will try and limp to local LR specialist and get it plugged in. Also some interesting threads re diesel bug and black crud all over filter base?

No leaks that I can see from pressure reg. would crank sensor show up on diagnostics? JE Engineering did not pick anything up just over two weeks ago....

Yes, it's pretty noisy most of the time. Can also be heard when engine is running. Couldn't hear it today when car died but was working again later. Intermitent fault?

Smell of diesel in oil is injector seals, apparently. No sign of that. Blown turbo would more likely be low power not total loss. Fuel filter was new on purchase three months ago.

Right- I have had a really good trawl through a number of threads on TD% problems but would appreciate some advice! TD5 has been hard to start for a few weeks. Priming away, pump noisy, starts after 3rd or 4th effort if been left for a while. Today it started in that manner, drove 30 miles...

Scratch that! Rang Nexxia to order and was told that I don't need the kit as the amp is speaker not line level, and it is standard ISo input. Found an old head unit in shed, plugged in and all fine. Last time I take any notice of audio bod in local halfrauds....... Told me it would not work...

I know there has been a lot of discussion on this but I came across this link in my search for a solution: Range Rover HC ISO to RCA Line in Adaptor online at Nexxia UK I have the Alpine head unit and amp in my TD5 XS and want to swap the head (CD player also knackered) but want to keep the...
