Thanks Peter. I've ordered one of those.
I'll get the numbers off my EDC, I don't know why I didn't take a picture of it last weekend, while it was on my workshop bench, as I took pictures of the ... |

Hi Nodge,
The first thing I would try is to remove the ECU and warm it with a hot air gun then refit it and start the engine from cold. If it runs on all four you can then be confident that the fault ... |

Morning all.
Took my 2007 Freelander for MoT this morning (passed) and on way home the engine cut out. Coasted to side of road and it would not start.
Removed the key and put it straight back in ... |

There is a specific procedure in the dealer SDD software for replacing engine ECU.
It's a simple, step by step procedure, during which it will read the info from the old ECU, have you exchange the EC ... |

You've done an amazing job to get as far as you have with it so it will be brilliant if you can finally sort it.
Thanks. I'm hoping the engine is good for another 100k miles, once it's running pr ... |

Hi Nodge,
I've read through your thread on this over on Landyzone and I came to the conclusion that it is most likely a fault with the engine ECU - either a dry soldered joint or a faulty drive trans ... |

If you get hold of a second hand engine ECU, try to swap and see if it's the same.
Take into account that it may be a laborious thing, because immo information and injector programming is a must, but ... |

Hi all. Back story first.
In July I took ownership of a poorly 2008 FL2 TD4 SE. It is in generally nice condition, showing little wear to anything important, and has both keys (I was shocked how few ... |
