Td5 Misfire
Jimbo:
Do you get any warning lights on the dash when it happens ?
Have you got a tuning chip/module fitted ?
Only asking, as I have a Dastek PP and if you don't let it 'boot' for a few seconds straight after starting, the engine coughs and the orange 'engine' light comes on - ignition off/on sorts that out every time.

You only get that with plug in boxes!! :wink: not a proper replacement chip/remap. One of the side effects of a plug in box.

ECU is in standard form, no chips/plug in boxes.
There are no warning lights on the dash.
Will check red plug after work.
Porny:
Any joy??
Have you checked the red plug for oil, or disconnected the air flow meter??
Shame your not a bit closer, could have plugged my laptop into your Defender and had a look for any faults.

All plugs into ECU are clean, with no signs of contamination. Will try airflow meter disconnection next.
What software / cabling do you use for fault finding?
