| Disco 3 2.7 tdv6 not starting problem |
|
Hi guys, I have an LR3 2.7 TDV6. I’ve recently replaced the oil pump, timing belt etc etc, then had a no start problem after starting first the time.
While I was marking the the back of the cam sprocket on the right, some of my paint pen dropped directly into the cam sensor plug. I cleaned the plug and the sensor and had an intermittent starting issue...then replaced the sensor and no joy there either.
Today I have triple checked the timing. The left cam as you look at it the pin slots straight in. The right cam will also go all the way in but at a slight angle. With both cams locked the crank locking tool slots in perfectly. While all locked up I undid the 3 bolts on each can sprocket and also undid the Tensioner. Then redid the Tensioners and tightened the sprocket bolts. Hand cranked the engine 4 times and everything line up exactly as before.
I put the car back together and she fired up first time......switched it off and on again and no start .
at this point I plugged it in to a basic code reader and came up with PO341-00 cam sensor.
sometimes the car will start and drives normally with no smoke and all the power. Other times it will just crank.
I’ve driven the car for 10 miles after clearing all errors and no no errors are stored . Every time the car doesn’t start it will store the same PO341-00.
NO OTHER CODES APART FROM ONE TIME OUT OF 20 C1A00-88.
new battery
New crank sensor.
Battery and alternator both working normally.
any advice from here guys?
Thanks

As the last thread was regarding timing belt replacement. I have ruled out timing being my issue, and have seemingly isolated it to being a cam issue.
Also that thread seems to have died and also another timing thread has died too.
