Black-Feather Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 Intermittent loss of power P38 Diesel 1995 Hi all, Any ideas or help would be very much appreciated, on my much 1995 P38 Diesel. I have a intermittent loss of power, as like running out of fuel, suddenly your driving nicely a long and lose all power at the throttle peddle? Cars still ticks over, and if I wait a while some times it just comes back and all it well until the next time it goes, I have just change the throttle actuator on the throttle peddle at the cost of £250? As I thought it might be that, by after fitting it I had only driven about 15 miles and back came the fault, so I guess there goes £250 replacing a part that was ok? I wonder could it be the ECU. And if it is, could I just replace it for a second hand one? Or could it be the faulty pump? Not sure what make it is on mine but the throttle actuator was Bosch just wonder if any has the same thing happen to them or knows any else that has Many thanks Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
disco_al Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 First step i would suggest would be to find a local landrover independant specialist with nanocom/testbook and get it plugged in to find the fault code - before spending huge amounts of cash on replacing parts at random.
