TD5 Misfire
« on: August 11, 2011, 20:52:08 »

A colleague has a TD5 Disco and it has a very odd fault, when the engine is hot it has a distinct misfire on one cylinder, it doesn't do it when the engine is cold though.

I've suggested  that he try using some injector cleaner and see if that helps.

Anyone have any other idea's what could be wrong?

Could there be any oil in the ecu plug?

Oil in the loom would be my guess as well
