    Well done Vera for working out that the feed pipes to the bottles hold 10ml on fuel, therefore the bottle reading was 10ml too high.
    A word of advice Christian: My wife Valerie is also very clever when it comes to these observations.
    I have now learned to reply to her “I know that and I was just waiting for you to have noticed it too!”
    Unfortunately, I have used this excuse so many times now that Valerie doesn’t believe me any more.
    Unfortunately for me also, she is also correct on this observation!

    Love the videos, great to see and hear a German perspective on a Land Rover. ! First, the Discovery 3 poor start, in my humble experience, most of Disco 3 cold start issues are down to two things. 1, the fuel heater and 2, the heater plugs!! Mine a 2005 Disco 3 TDV6 with just over 200,000 miles has NEVER missed a beat, but it only has 3 working heater plugs or glow plugs🙁 I have found that using the heater plugs at least 3 times in really cold, we were down to -12 degrees this year, the Disco has never failed to start! When the car was still under warranty we were told that the heater plugs had failed. Strangely enough I could not book the vehicle in before the warranty expired so we would have to pay for the repair! Go figure! But here we are several years later and still running fine. Have Faith, our British engineering built the modern world. We might moan but we still carry on working and we won’t let you down! Plus with regards to the end of the video, the steering wheel fitted was not a L/R product, but an aftermarket one, as we say in English garages, with vehicles, the biggest problem is the nut that holds the steering wheel !!!

I recently cleaned the MAP sensor on mine ( they get clogged up with oil and carbon very quickley) and gained 3 MPG and slightly smoother tickover. I would suggest this is done every 6 months or 6000 miles.thinking about trying to import a catch can from Australia to help reduce the oil/carbon build up in the induction/egr system.

    Hi Christian, just a quick thought about poor starting and initial rough running. I haven't done much work on an LR3 but have done lots on Disco 1 & 2 diesels and their Defender equivalents. On all engine starts (hot or cold) the glow plug circuitry is activated, the glow plugs heat up the cylinders and the engine fires up; a lesser known aspect is that even after engine starts turning and ticking over, the glow plugs will continue to work for up to 30 seconds AFTER the engine has started, to help with initial tick-over. So MAYBE there is an issue with the glow plug circuitry/relay/glow plugs ?

    • @Vera_and_Christian
      @Vera_and_Christian  3 роки тому

    Hi Guys, very nice and funny video ( i loved the Aussy mode). I'm pretty sure that cylinder balancing could be tested via digital diagnostic tool (iidTool does it). Yours has been the "analogical diagnose" :-)) For rougher cold starts you could investigate glow plugs first (amps clamp should be fine to check glow plugs current drain just before a cold start), in warm conditions you can fool the intake temperature sensor using some resistors in order to force the car to "feel" a cold climate and set on the glow plugs (Robbie's guide to glow plug diagnostic explain that very well). Hope you solve the problem quickly! Now have to wait until next sunday to know more about it :-))) Cheers

    Greetings from Down Under, Christian and Vera! I don't know why I am enjoying your videos so much - I drive a 200 Series Land Cruiser. I guess maybe being a Land Rover DIscovery II owner for a decade, and working on my own vehicle (though not to the same level as you guys!) I am curious about what it would take to maintain a Disco 3 diesel. I have to admit, I am a little concerned about just how much work is required, compared to a Toyota, which is just routine oil and filter changes. Nonetheless your videos would help me if I were to buy a Discovery 3 as a weekend hobby vehicle. :)
    By the way, I think fixing a Defender is *significantly* easier to work on compared to a Discovery. There is a lot of old school stuff in it similar to a Discovery II.

You may see if there is a demand for pressure but the pump is not responding or responding with a long delay. This could be a problem with the pressure regulator valve or with the volume control valve. In addition to the P2290 I also saw P0087-00 and P0191-23. All pointed towards a pressure problem.

      I'm waiting for the fuel rail pressure sensor to see if it reads wrong in that rpm range and that's why the car fails...
      Thank you very much Christian!!

      was the engine ecu (PCM)
      I imagine that when the alternator died it broke some component of the ecu

    Good day, I'm having issues with a 2016 land rover discovery LR 4. It's rough idling and won't rev when pressing the gas pedal.
    The reason for this was some bad fuel was bought and there was some water in the fuel. The tank was dropped and drained and fresh fuel was put in, the fuel filter was changed and the injectors were cleaned and it's still behaving the same way. I'm not getting any codes in the computer and all injectors were put back in there exact removal location. It's dumping a lot of fuel and smoking white. I only can rev it up only if I remove the connectors for the mass air flow sensors .
    I have been at this issue for couple weeks now and still can't find the problem, can you help?

    Now would the dealer have come clean about the steering wheel if when they started work the discovered it was only a loose nut, or would they have continued to replace the rack. 🤔

    Hallo LR Time . mal ein Gedankenspiel, beim 3 L ist die Hochdruckpumpe getimemt. das macht nur Sinn wenn sie nicht permanent Hochdruck erzeugt, sondern als Peak nur zu den Einspritzzeiten. Wäre das Timing falsch, als der Peak zu früh o späht, wäre die Rücklaufmenge wahrscheinlich zu hoch und der Einspritzdruck zum Zeitpunkt der Injectorenöfnung zu gering. ob das beim 2.7 auch so ist , weiß ich nicht. macht weiter so, super Videos.

    Does anyone know do you need to code injectors after engine swap, ecu is not swapped. Original ECU of the car. After swapping the engine doesn’t work as smooth in mine as in the donor car.

    • @Vera_and_Christian

      I don´t know. I think the 2.7L is coded and the 3.0L or the other way around. Check on Diso3.co.uk if you find something there or on one of the Facebook groups. I neever had to swoap or change a injector. Christian

    Christian, I have a Toyota but recently bought a discovery 3 It has a diesel leak coming from somewhere on the right hand side of the engine. I am sort of blaming you for this due to watching all of your videos and now owning one. Is there a common fault or wear issue before I start my journey to you and Vera for Christmas repairs.

    • @Vera_and_Christian
      @Vera_and_Christian  Рік тому

      It is best to search for that leak, soon. Hopefully you already have found it by now. Did you buy that leak? We never had a diesel leak on any Discovery. But at least you know what you do over Christmas break. Hope you find your leak and can fix it. I always recomend Advanced Factors for searching for part numbers. And anyone in the UK can also buy there directly. I assume you don't have a Land Cruiser as a Toyota, but a smaller one. I hope you can fix it and enjoy your Disco. 👍🙋‍♀️

    Replace glow/heater plugs?

    • @VaderWhoop

      @@AndyK.1
      I only mention it because a relative was having difficult starting issues from cold, and only after the glow plugs were replaced did the issue resolve.
      She used BERU glow plugs £25-£30 for a set of 4.( not LR vehicle obviously )
      Your *"don't make much of a difference"* statement confuses me; if some of the current glow plugs are faulty, then how could replacing with a new set not make much difference?
      As I understand it, a diesel engine is first started from cold by pre-heating the cylinder combustion area to encourage/promote first initial combustion from the mechanical compression of fuel/air in the cylinder head, after which the heat from the previous combustion is retained allowing the next successive combustion upon compression to ocurr.
      I do not know of any other diesel engine that does not require glow plugs in order to start above 0*c; so they must be required and are important.
      I would be interested in hearing your reasoning why they *"don't make much of a difference above 0degC"*

    The low fuel pressure fault and hard to start on these engines is usually caused by a weak intank fuel pump. The intank pump is used to provide pressure to the HPFP and if the pressure or flow is not enough the HPFP cannot provide enough fuel or pressure to the high pressure rail. Replaced quite a few and its easy to diagnose. www.disco3.co.uk/forum/topic130062.html Robbies guide will tell you all you need to know. If you do replace the pump please only change it for a OEM full unit and not just a pump. I know it sounds daft however i have never known a aftermarket pump replacement work for more than a couple of months.

      @Vera_and_Christian  3 роки тому

      We have followed Robbies guide for a while now 👍 (we already gave credit to him in another video). We already took the tank out a couple of weeks ago and checked the pump, which was just fine. But found something else in the tank that might have contributed to the problem. A video covering the entire process is coming out soon. 🙋‍♀️ Vera
