TD5 Power Loss

(1/12) > >>

drum:
I'm having a an intermittent problem with the 110, (2004 TD5) it drives fine, except for one thing, and it doesn't always misbehave, but it is getting more frequent.

If I drive over a certain rpm (I don't have a rev counter so can't tell exactly what it is) the engine cuts all power and just sits at those revs. In 3rd it is 30mph, in 4th 40mph and 5th 50mph only roughly. If I approach these sppeds gradually, I can get slightly furth but as soon as it "retards" it goes back to these speeds.

I'm wondering about turbo??

anybody any ideas??

Might be going into limp home mode. As that is a new Defender trick.

drum:
How can I figure out what is triggering it??

Without going out & driving it Ican't tell you about 3rd & 4th, but 2000RPM in 5th equates to about 50mph in mine.

But.... with the diameter of your tyres????

Sounds like an electronics problem. Take it back to the dealer. If its a 2004 it should be still under warranty.
