  1. thanks for the replys guys

    thanks Tanuki

    ur reply sound about right but wastegate all free

    i can drive about 2 miles all ok, then starts too judder like it cutting the boost in and out, and then its just flat like its in a derate mod/limp

    its also been doing well over 500 miles to a tank on hard work/speeding etc but flat out at 80mph (due too nomore go )

    could be the map sensor been faulty stopping the boost and the engine aaarrrr ?

    !! unless the waste gate sticking when warmed up !!!!

  2. i have a td5 disco with a few problems most fixed buy by the good people help on hear !!

    now i have a new problem with no codes and no fault light

    the engine starts fine and runs sweet revs well but after about a mile or 2 its starts too loose power

    it seems like the turbo is cutting in and out until theres no boost left

    ive swaped the air flow meter and fitted a new injection loom this was bad !!! also cleaned the sensor on the inlet manifold but still no beter

    also remove the fuel pump but this was clean

    any ifor would be helpful even if its some thing i've missed or mite of done when i've been playing

    cheers

  6. i use a trans/hyd oil in my trans box and axles

    i also use rtv silcone on both side of the felt washer as they are carp and ive done lots of these seals you can tell if its the felt washer by if there is oil around the nut inside the flange its the felt washer... if its dripping under the flange its the seal (hope am not telling you how too suck eggs but )

    but make sure you install the main seal the correct measurement in or it can be damaged by the flange

    hope this helps...........
