Title: 200tdi losing power
Post by: Andy the Landy on December 24, 2004, 22:05:42

A mate of mine has a P-reg 200tdi (his first Land Rover). Every now and again it loses power, chuffs a big black cloud from exhaust and picks its feet up again. What's gonna be the likely cause, blocked injectors, timeing or just in need of a good service :?:

I'd start by giving it a good service.

Could be blocked fuel filters, a faulty pump, and a few other things.

Change the fluids & filters and if it's not been done before a dose of injector cleaner probably wouldn't go amiss.

Once you get that lot done, then see what you are dealing with.

Turbo Bearing oil seal on it's way out?  Not one to be left indefinitely.
