its chain, i work on them every day they want to smoke you!!!

I experianced it a cuople of times the heads are prone for cracking in the exhaust ports, getting rid of the cooling stuf then indicating on the heat guage I am running hot, I dont know of any official mods done to stop this cracking but it did stop, Ithink the germans just made the castings thicker.

a bit of prolong wonder grease and you can cross the world a few times!!!

The first thing is the slave fitted correctly with the bleed niple above the supply line, and the master adjustment doesnt sound right it should be in the middle to three quaters range............and lenth DOES NOT MATTER YOU MUST LISTEN TO YOUR GIRLFRIEND

Hi I had the same fault on a tdi just two weeks ago and the fuel stop solinoide wire had a bad conection and I just cut it off and put a new terninal on and problem solved.

As long as it goes away in 30 or less seconds then it is ok, the reason for no 5 cylinder not having a glo plug is because of to fuel pressure regulator sitting at no 5 cylinder. Just for my own interist what does cold mean Phil in celcius please because where I live cold is 18deg celcius.

The alarm on defender and disco 1 is the same thing but you need some serious wiring and you need a testbook to reprogram from disco to defender and some market changes.

I WILL GET RID OF THE ZUES GEARS AS SOON AS POSSABLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Catch my drift, and check the fuel pump boost pype as mentioned,

The stop solinoid is a issue when the vehicle gets old dont just check it cut off the terminal and put a new one on,the glow plug check is good do it and the light dimming I found on lots of ocasions is the earth/negative wire from the battery to the chassis to the transferbox gets old renew including the battery terminal and dont forget the earth wire at the starter motor to the chassis renew it.

Hey russianfrog you dont know these farmers in SA they have limmited space where you can(at own risk of corse)drive faster than 140km/h and they want to. The other reason is that if they know the limeter is not there then they are happy and if I can make money why not

Hi you all thanks for replying i also enquired at blackbox solutions because i have a rovacom diagnostic mashine and i thought maby i could just remap the ecu but if i have to get a type of kit then that is what we have to do thanks.

check if the transferbox or gearbox was not removed for some reason and some people dont secure the main engine harnas/bunch of electrical wires running from the red plug of the ecu and then it lays on the hand brake/emergansy brake drum and chafes through and starts to short out causing hvoc

Hi I am new to the forum and would like put it out there I have my own workshop in South Africa and I spesialise on Landys and I am very pasionate about these vehicles I do have a question about the new Defender with the commonrail engine and it is are the ones in your market also speed limited to round about 140km/h and if so has any one been sucsesful in removing the limiter and do you guys know what it entitled to remove this speed limiter.
