Hodroyd Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Hello All, I am a newbie here and I need some advice please. I have a Freelander Mk1 Facelift 2005 2.0 Ltr Auto. It has been running fine until just recently. Now when driving along gently, no pressure all is fine, under acceleration I get loads of smoke, hesitant power, then a sudden increase in power coupled with either a hissing, or suction noise from just behind the dash area. I also now have an engine management light on in yellow. The vehicle has an auxilary heater but I don't think its anything do with that..!! I need to get it in to a garage, but wondered if anyone has had anything like this happen, if so what was the prognosis.? Thank you in anticipation..!!

FridgeFreezer Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Have a read back for common TD4 problems (also buying advice threads) - split turbo hoses are common, there's a few easy & relatively cheaply fixed things like that with TD4's.

Hodroyd Posted January 12, 2016 Author Share Posted January 12, 2016 Thankyou FridgeFreezer, I wondered if it could be something to do with the turbo, if it is just a hose, that's not bad, fingers crossed..!! The amount of smoke was a worry, cars behind dropped way back so they could breath and see, no tailgaters..!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hodroyd Posted January 13, 2016 Author Share Posted January 13, 2016 Update: 2 Turbo hoses replaced, full service, car is excellent again..!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
