Disco 3 Randomly Runs rough TDV6
Evening all,
Wondered if anyone could help. Got a D3 with the TDV6 2006.
The car starts fine and runs well but if you apply some revs for a minute or two it starts to run very rough. I have the live values and Injector 2 is over fuelling I have changed the injector and still have the same problem. Some other injectors are under fuelling I presume to compensate, and I have also changed these to no avail. It will then run rough again until you keep the revs on for a few minutes then it will run nice again, but you will slowly see the values go high on injector 2 and it then goes lumpy again. Photos attached of the balance values

Hi
Can’t see the picture I’m afraid , plus any fault codes showing
Have u replaced the filter with a genuine / oem one along with checking what the LP readings are at the back of the engine , should be around 0.5bar / 7.25 Psi

Are you aware that injector numbers do not match cylinder numbers? Injector 2 is located in cylinder 4

Great point @ aja4x4
Think this is correct
Injector 1 is in cylinder 1
Injector 2 is in cylinder 4
Injector 3 is in cylinder 2
Injector 4 is in cylinder 5
Injector 5 is in cylinder 3
Injector 6 is in cylinder 6

Thanks everyone. Changed the filter but not checked the LP fuel pump. I will check that. I uploaded the pictures but they have vanished for some reason.... I didnt click UPLOAD! when it runs rough its like it is missfiring and the engine shakes
Video - https://photos.app.goo.gl/Rzxjtp49VNGpPeDj6 the chuffing sound goes when it runs right after a little revving. I have removed all injectors and put new copper washers on them there was no blowby on them but did it anyway. I get the codes that cylinder 3 is at its upper limit and 1 3 & 5 are at the minimum.
I did know they layout is not in numerical order but iv got the IID setup in the correct order
Thanks for your help!

just a silly one, you mentioned you have changed the injectors have you make sure that the loom is placed properly to the injectors?

Hi
Hope u didn’t mind , Just reposted ur pics to try and make them a bit sharper , as a side note u can also email the pics to urself via the iid or take a screenshot
May i ask , what make of filter did u fit please , many thks
Know the more knowledgeable members will know this, but have u checked and cleaned ur MAP sensor as I noticed u still have ur egr pipes connected
Have u done any live data readings of ur sensors , ie MAP , MAF etc to see what they are , can then easily post up the ones I’ve done as a comparison for u
Many thks

@KostasA i have checked them and checked the loom back to the ecu with a multimeter and its all good for all injectors.
@gstuart Thanks. That tablet has no wifi as it broken and im getting use to using this forum! Originally it was a genuine one but no idea when it was last changed but I had a new crosslands one laying about the workshop so put that on. Not idea i know but i wouldnt expect a new filter to have the same issue instantly. I have cleaned the MAP sensor and tried another off another D3 i have. I have not touched the MAF sensor so i will check that out but would a MAP or MAF sensor cause these weird injector values? I have also changed injector 5 with injector 3 and it still does the same.

Many thks
Only reason I ask about the fuel filter is I’ve read that the D3 prefer a genuine or decent oem filter
Assume the next step will be to see what pressures u have via the low pressure test point at the back of the engine
Please let us know how u get on and the members here who are a lot more knowledgeable will be able to help more than myself
Just wondered ref live data just to see what the Map / Maf sensors were reading so at least u can see there also within range
