🐃 Land Rover 300Tdi Engine Problems

Jode. Our 300 Tdi (1995 vintage) has recently had an extensive service, which included new air and fuel filters, flushed intercooler/oil cooler/ rad, all new fluids, new timing belt and timing gear kit (thank you Land Rover engineers), adjusted tappets, and cleaned injectors using fuel additive. Despite all that, when starting off on the flat Settled In. 985. Location:Oxfordshire. Posted April 9, 2010. My franchised dealer put Castrol Magnatec Diesel 10/40 in my 300TDi at the first (1000-mile) service and I have continued to use the same stuff ever since. Price at Costco is £32 for 8L (box of 2x4L bottles) which is almost half what I see it for everywhere else. 1. Do the standard tweaks to the pump, make sure the turbo is boosting correctly and slap a huge intercooler on it. That should see in the region of a 35% gain in hp/torque ~150hp/260lb ft. 2.

I turned around immediately and started heading back home when the engine started losing a lot of power and I had to keep a much higher RPM for the car not to stall out. While oil leaks around the cylinder head on many other engines can mean some serious problems, on the 300Tdi engines, they are not that huge of a deal. Though oil leaks into the exhaust manifold can have spectacular consequences, all you need to do is to replace these seals and O-rings. western. Moderators. 37.7k. Location:Cornwall,UK.

Yes, it is done & fits, 200Tdi heads are no longer available new & IIRC Turners use 300Tdi heads on remanufactured 200Tdi engines if the original head is damaged beyond repair.

The discovery will cruise at 70mph on the level no problem, but when you reach a incline it starts to gradually lose power, at the top of the incline your doing 50mph. W89a.
