Could it be the waste gate? i have a NANOCOM connected and when the revs get to about 2500k (under load) the turbo pressure drops to zero. The engine was a straight swap, we didnt touch the injectors. Would the ECU need updating when a new engine is put in.

Hi all I've just put a new (well recon) engine in my Disco TD5 (2001) and it is as if it has a limiter fitted. I can accelerate fine up to 3000rpm or 60mph then there just is no guts left in it. Its baffleing me, all i can think of doing now is taking it to LR and getting the ECU checked out... Any ideas? Thanks Steve

My TD5 disco decided to "sump" and is now in a pretty poor state, so we are going to try a rebuild, question is, dos anyone know a good source of parts, pistions, rings, injectors etc. Can the injectors be reconditioned. thanks

Everyone seems to be out of stock of AT2's, i hink I will have to settle for some £75 cheapy road tyres!!!!

Hi All. Does anyone know where i can get any 255/55/18 All Terrain tyres... Thanks Steve

I have a similar problem, I only need to touch the accelarator and i get a sort of "farting" sound. Thats the best I can describe it. By tapping the accelarator you could play a tune.

I had exactly the same problem, and it was tottaly random. I got a spring replacement kit and took the air bags off.

I will check that, possibly done some damage while I have been off road, are manifolds expensive? Steve

Spencer i will PM it now to you. I got a NANOCOM and I think its and excellent peice of kit. Steve

I have a 51 plate Discovery TD5 which is making a whistling & wining sound. When I accelerate (even just touching the accelerator) there is a whistling sound coming from engine it also appears to be more noticable from inside the truck rather than outside. Along with the whistling there is a sound that i can best describe as an off road motorcylce running on 1 cylinder (if they have more than one). as the truck goes faster the noises are gradually drowned out by the "normal" sound of the engine, if I remember correctly the noises have gone by about 2500-3000 RPM. Any ideas? Thanks Steve

You are correct it is called a ground stud C0561-1, I think I got confused with another job which appears to be an Earth problem Would you know where C0362 is located, it just says it mentions LH side of Facia (Glove box i am presuming??) Thanks

The matchstick was missing off the tools required. As I live 50 miles from the nearest shop, it would have been a nightmare!!!! Othere than that excellent post!!

After losing the 3 Amigoes for about 6 months, they have finally returned and dont seem to want to leave anytime soon. Without going in to everything I did to get rid of them previously, it might be easier to say what i didnt do...... I was following an excellent tech sheet kindly sent from CIPX2, but as it was dark and raining i decided to omit one of the steps, which was "Check the earth tag". My question is does anyone know which is the earth tag for the ABS as there seems to be many of them!!! Thanks Steve

This is where i admit to not searching the forum before posting, I must get into the habit.

What does removing the EGR plate acomplish? Does it improve performance?
