I need proof of year of manufacture of the Discovery 200Tdi engine, or it needs to be fitted with a cat....(non waxoyled because it burns rather well ) so I ring Land rover.. No they can't cross referance the engine number or even tell me when it was made without a chassis number...... No they can't give me a letter to say the 200Tdi was manufactured between 1989 and 1993 Rings Gaydon...no they can't help Looks for my Haynes manual......wife chucked it, when she cleaned the back of my/the one she's using Disco Trawled the web.......found nothing so can anyone look in there haynes/workshop/anywhere that might have something with either Discovery engine numbers, dates of manufacture of the 200 Tdi, so I can try and proove when it was made...... and then scan it and either post it up here... or email to les.brocklehurst@[remove this bit]eesi.co.uk I know its a big ask.....but I've tried everything I can think of..... Now on to find a new gaiter for the gearstick/transfer lever......terminal covers for the alterator terminals...and everything else that I need to get sorted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 Manufacture of 200Tdi's would have been from late 1988 for the Discovery pre production vehicles & then full production for sales, seems strange that LR can't find the information, only Japanes market 200Tdi Discovery's had cats fitted, no UK/European markets vehicles didn't. Discovery was introduced to the UK in October 1989 in 3 door form with 200Tdi & V8 engines. from EPC info I've found Discovery 200TdI engine numbers start 12L00001 onwards doesn't give dates of manufacture though maybe a phone call or e.mail to James Taylor of LRE would get the required info.hth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
