    3 pipe pulsair / detox engine

    Well I have found some more info out about this through heavy research...so thought I would report back in case anyone else is in the same boat. There does/did exist a blanking plug, part number ETC6474, which is either listed as NLA or around £7 each inc vat which I'm not too keen on...

    Fuel pipe type for offroad/trials

    Apologies if wrong place for this.. Currently sorting out a RRC/Series hybrid for trialing/offroad use, it's got a hgv fuel tank mounted in the pickup bed and a facet electric fuel pump and regulator mounted under where the middle seat would go. After sorting some pipework issues out the V8 is...

    3 pipe pulsair / detox engine

    I'm trying to blank off/remove this ridiculous pulsair / detox system on the V8 in my trialer. Famous Four do a blanking kit but it explicitly says its not for engines with 3 pulsair pipes per head, and unfortunately that's what mine has :(...

    Td4 turbo problem?

    Well I've found the problem, and I don't know whether to laugh or cry... I decided it must be something simple, and we t round unplugging various sensors in turn and driving it for a bit. During this I managed to damage the plug for the fuel rail pressure sensor, so it looks like I'm in the...

    Td4 turbo problem?

    Well this morning I replaced the low pressure fuel pump and took it for a run, no different... I then replaced the final intercooler hose and took it for a run, no different again... Thanks for this, I tried it but they all made it throw a wobbly. Throwing some injector cleaner through probably...

    Td4 turbo problem?

    I can't seem to find the ECU's acceptable range for the MAP sensor, but this page indicates a new sensor will read between 25 and 250kPa so I would imagine 120kPa is nowhere near excessive. The only thing I can think of is that something is happening to make it shoot up massively when it gets...

    Td4 turbo problem?

    Right, I've been out and had a play, and I think we're getting closer to the problem... I downloaded some better diagnostic software and plugged the laptop in and monitored the live data. What I have found is that this sudden dip in power happens when the MAP sensor registers anything above...

    Td4 turbo problem?

    Its a 2005 model, unfortunately I gave the Hawkeye I borrowed back two days before this problem started. The only thing I have diagnostic wise is VCDS which has a generic OBD2 scan function, it doesn't show any codes, but it doesn't show much info at all really. I have replaced all but one of...

    Td4 turbo problem?

    Well as expected I replaced the vacuum reservoir, connected it all up, and it's gone back to a huge loss of power at 1750rpm and being basically undriveable. As soon as I disconnect the vacuum to the turbo actuator it doesn't lose power until 2500rpm again. I also tried unplugging the MAP...

    Td4 turbo problem?

    The EGR has been blanked off in the air intake with a bypass piece which has a stub for the vacuum pipe to it, but the EGR control solenoid is still connected, I believe it can throw up a fault code if it isnt? Either way all the vacuum pipes are brand new now. I will see if the new vacuum...

    Td4 turbo problem?

    Hi, this is a bit of a long one... About 2 weeks ago I had a problem on my 2005 Td4 where there was a massive dip in power for about 3 seconds when going uphill then it came back in again, I thought nothing of it, but then it happened again, and progressively kept happening more and more until...

    London LEZ - Guide to getting an exemption

    Hi, I recently moved house and while changing my address decided to have a go at getting this corrected. I have a Defender 110 SW TDI, 5 seats and windows in the back, with the correct letter in the VIN to identify it as a station wagon. It was originally listed as a Light 4x4 Utility so not...

    BL***y door strikers...Arghhh

    Sorry to resurrect an old topic... I've got a set of 4 of these doors to put on my 110 csw with the handle mid way, and I have 3 strikers out of 4, one has got lost in transit. Although they are fiercely expensive as I only need one it's probably worth paying the money. Do you happen to still...

    Unconverting a 'special defender'

    Do you happen to have any more pics of that ex-AA 110 csw? Mine was one once, but has been severely messed with, and I'm trying to find out more about what it looked like originally! I don't fancy putting it back to roller shutter sides (I work in electricity, all our defenders have them), I'm...
