Glad your misfire has almost gone, probably the temp is higher because the water has to negotiate two obstacles.

Well I have cured my mates misfire at 2000rpm with a new thermostat, engine was not reaching normal operating temperature. I'll leave you tech wizards to work this one out. PS EGR enabled and original unit, 108,000 miles

Also cam / crank sensors fail when warm and return to normal when cooled down

Replaced my brake pads last week, sick of the lockheed pads making grinding noises, better braking performance and now quiet.

One of the biggest killers of egr valves in diesels is constant low mileage trips where the engine temperature never really warms up so they Coke up. Believe me I work on a fleet of vehicles that are constant stop start and it went to the stage when we told drivers to take it on the motorway and...

Whatever it is the lack of heat is causing it. Those who have this problem try leaving the engine run until the engine temperature is normal and try holding the throttle over 2000 rpm and below 3000 rpm and let us know the results. My thinking was that some have blanked the egr with results...

finally had time to plug in my mates freelander, live dater was spot on, everything was performing well but held the throttle at 2000rpm and misfire and clouds of white/grey smoke, while the thing was ticking over I ran a few more tests, egr actuator on and off a few times and retested map maf...

I have general grabbers gt, not designed for mud wallowing but like you only needed on gravel tracks, they cost me trade £50.54 each

Another thing that sprung to mind is the throttle position sensors and the clutch switch but not too sure if Land rover use the clutch switch for engine fuelling management if you don't have cruise control, if they don't why is it fitted to mine ? Mission on lol

They do, if the ECU is picking up a wrong signal from the ambient temp sensor then the engine will over fuel anyway on cold start and if the ECU does not get the correct signal when its warm it still could be over fueling slightly, I really don't think it's an injector dribbling as my mate who...

simplest way is take it to an mot station with shaker plates

BMW say the rail pressure switch has a life of 10 years, mine was electrically in good order but mechanically it was buggered. .

I have read a lot of stuff on TD4 engine fuel management and how it all comes together, but still this engine smoke when cold and a blip, misfire or shudder at 2000rpm still baffles me how lots of you are still getting this after changing just about everything and then it hit me, the TD4 will...

Glad you got sorted, strange how others have still got their fault when they have had the egr mod fitted, it could be they need to change their mafs as well ? It could be a duff maf to start that allowed the egr to stick or get clogged, or the other way around, what ever it is who knows

Slam it in reverse go as fast as you can then brake sharply and pray
