The symptoms are not what would usually coincide wth oil in ECU harness. Although it would be best to replace as oil is already present. Check the turbo hoses for spilts, loose hose clamps or if any hose has been blown of the sockets. The symptoms are simmlar to what would happen if air leaks. Disco 2 V8 XS.
In addition to being a mechanical weak point, the Td5 T/C suffers from an excessively high stall speed (~2800 rpm) which is better suited for a petrol engine (Td5 engine torque peaks at around 2200 rpm). Many owners concur in that the Td5 autobox changes gears "too late" causing the engine to rev up unnecessarily (throwing gears well above 3000
Just blocking the EGR (fit the plate at the exhaust manifold end) will IMPROVE your fuel consumption by about 20%, so 20 mpg would become an instant 24 - 25. My TD5 manual (42k miles now) can break FORTY miles per gallon on motorway cruising if I set the cruise control to about 55/56 and let her run along.

The tdi and TD5 fuel economy barely changes loaded or unloaded. Originally Posted by tempestv8. Granted, the Discovery II TD5 has a 3500 kg tow capacity and a 250 kg down weight on the tow ball, it should make a good towing machine.
Jan 16, 2011. #7. my last tank was 33 MPG This is usually my average - 90 CSW, de EGR, on 265 75 16 BFG AT. Did 330 miles and the light wasnt on when i filled up. I did notice a little drop after i swapped to the BFG though. If you want to get better economy, get rid of any unused weight/Roofrack.
