      Is it legal to remap the ECU so that the valve stays closed? I guess not. The turbo pump? Vacuum pump for brakes? The injectors maybe cylinder specific, TD5 injectors get tested and given a performance value, he ECU gets told the value and operates the injector accordingly. As always, great work, fascinating to watch.

      This is why I admire German engineering. On the other hand it goes completely against the original Land Rover ethos of three blokes called Bill making it up as they go along and wondering when the pubs open.

      What do you think of feeding the EGR valve with exhaust from after the DPF particulate filter so that it doesn't fill the intake with soot?

      I was hoping you'd test the injectors before fitting them as they could be out of spec, over or under fueling, I'm looking to do mine and was hoping for some indepth information. I did email you a while ago but no reply.

      Love it as always. Let’s start a just for fun competition of what will be the first part to go on V’s newly refurbished LR3. I want to say it will be the cabin heater motor blower 💨relay. ❤LR Time

      Hallo,

      Danke für die super Videos !!!!! Sind echt klasse. Ich habe einen Discovery 4 SDV6 und habe 1 Tag nach dem Anschauen des Videos das Oel gewechselt auf 5W-40. Der Motor läuft viel besser als vorher. Würded Ihre das auch bei meinem L322 4.4 TDV8 empfehlen, das Auto hat +/_ 190.000km ? Danke für das Feedback

      Good evening Vera & Christian from sunny Tenerife 😊 it’s my fault again as I stupidly voted Brexit and I now don’t have mobile roaming free so I have to wait until I get WiFi 😥 Anyway it was a fantastic video seeing the heart ❤️ of the lovely Vera’s LR being put back together with the finest German surgeon Christian that knows nothing about Toyotas lol 😆 As always a big kiss for Vera 😘 x

      I hope someday you guys get your hands on a Discovery II and that you overhaul the Rover V8 or replace it with something else, that would be really interesting watching you bulletproof one of those very cool but notorious vehicles…

      I deleted both EGR valves, did a remap to get rid of the fault, then at TUV, remotely I activate it to "work"…. No problem at all, no clogged, no hot air in the intake… Work just nice

      Very excellent as always, but I still find the complexities of this engine horrible maybe not as bad as an Audi V8 but few would have the patience for a job like this. Great work

      sorry I am late but I have had my sisters funeral, apart from that i would love to go the Iceland as I maybe could see the Arora its great to see you getting on with that engine and so many here in the UK block of the EGR thanks for the video

    24. Bill B on

      If you decide to go to Iceland I will volunteer to follow you, for your piece of mind, in my Skoda Yeti 4×4 as a recovery truck and also to carry all the extra OMG’s that Vera will use up. 😂

      17:00 EGR never used? I viewed the live data for command and position on mine and they seem to fluctuate through various positions continuously depending on load. After replacing a faulty one the command and position match almost perfectly so I’m assuming there’s nothing wrong with them. I would love to know why they fail so often but I don’t think it’s as a result of being in one position for extended time. Am I missing something?

      Christian, apologies for steamrollering you here with a request on advice or for poking your brain. But seems you guys know your Land Rover inside-out. I am from South Africa and driving a 2008 Discovery 3 TDV6. The car suddenly developed an issue. There is a sudden loss of power, usually after deceleration when I need to slow to turn into a junction or similar. When I want to accelerate again, there is no power. No message on the dash, no errors, nothing. Just now power. I then put it in Neutral, press down on the accelerator a bit and the engine picks-up revs again, put it in Drive again and I can go. Can you point me in a direction as to what may be the issue? Thank you in advance.

      Dont be fooled dear friends,,, this is much more than master team in action ,, it is the beginning of a veritable cult not unlike top gear or wheeler dealers,,,,,this is good enough to serialised on TV,,,,,, I adore these videos,,, and I dont even OWN a land Rover,,,,, yet ,Gruss Gott

      If it was legal, would you blank off the EGR? I'm trying to assess whether blanking them is technically a good thing to do. Or whether the engine has been designed to run with EGR valve, so by removing it, does it stress other components?
