    She runs out of power!

    Greetings! I just joined and it seems I might have found the right place for help. I just got a 2001 Freelander TD4. She has some work to be done, like the rear passenger door windows dont work. Those are things I can fix myself. The powersteering pump also seems to be failing, but that is...

    Wisping noise

    Hi We have a 05 TD4 Freelander and all of a sudden the engine is making a wisping noise when accelerating - i gather this is turbo related - does it indicate impending failure or just blocked/broke pipes? I've noticed when accelerating the power drops off a little if the accelerator is...

    2002 Discovery Auto Turbo problem.

    My Discovery has served me well 202500 miles on the same engine etc. Recently developed a 'screaming' sound which I'm told by my Spanish garage is a turbo problem. Cost to replace is over £1000 which is more than the car's worth. Still runs well and screaming sound disappears after 5-10 minutes...

    200/300 Tdi turbo replacement

    I need to replace the turbo on my 200tdi Defender. Is here any replacement that will be a straight fit int? What options do I have, maybe by buying a replacement from a scrap yard? Also, I have the same problem with a 300 tdi so same questions apply. Thanks and regards to all!

    Running out of steam

    Just returned from touring with the caravan (1.6T all up) and the Disco (S2 2003 Auto) appears to have developed a power problem somewhere along the way. It's happy to zip along the straight and level at 60mph with a bit in reserve for overtaking but has nothing left to cope with gradients...

    FREELANDER 1 AUTO TD4 no power on uphill climbs

    This is my first post and I have had some fun trying to sort out my auto TD4 performance issues. I have just replaced the MAF sensor with a Meat&Doria part to replace the original Bosch sensor (F 00C 2G2 029). Car is running a lot better than before when it would hesitate on take off and...

    Hi to all, Vehicle is Defender 200Tdi - engines I think in good condition, uses no oil or water, starts well, no smoke etc. I recently discovered that the rubber pipe connecting the turbo to the metal tube going to the intercooler was split. I taped it up pending arrival of new pipe. On...

    Turbo Problems in Africa - HELP!

    So, I'm currently coming to the end of an overland trip from London to Cape Town in a 110 300tdi. It must be said we've had our fair share of problems along the way - not helped by some rather dubious Ethiopian mechanics. Anyway, turbo started making squeeling when under load in Ethiopia...

    I've seen many people mention the the fitment of a garrett t28 turbo to their 200tdi, but here at so many different turbo a/r 's, turbine and compressor sizes. so which one/s are the best for low speed, cruising and flat out operations?

    Diagnosing a whining noise

    A couple months ago, I had my 200tdi turbo rebuilt. I had a turbo specialist do the actual rebuild, but I used a new shop I hadn't used before to remove and refit the turbo. The shop didn't think it necessary to test drive the car after fitting the turbo, and after picking up the vehicle, I...
