Any progress on this?
Ye sorry all for not getting back soon as.
B4WD,i had that ecu put back to standard and put it in ,ran for a while and on test drive it went 500mtrs then stopped again.
Spoke to Rover Tec and we arranged a guy to come with a Launch,lots of stuff happening with faults but seemd to be intermittant.
Then its found the CHT could be faulty as it shows running at 150c so shuts motor down,disconnect it and it all seems to run fine.
Orderd from Sydney and await to see.
If that int it im well ****ed,asked about running it without this sensor connected till i get somewhere and can afford to spend time and money.
Well knocked me confidence with these pumas,wish id never had the ecu upgraded cos i still state that it was fine before i took it into Perth.
Ps...should the fuel filter be replaced on a 40k service. ?
Thanks all,will check here more often and let you all know.
Yes 40 K & heres the link http://www.aulro.com/afvb/local_link...&catid=7&id=88
To be fair, I get customers Land Rovers remapped by Rovertech (and openly tell my customers who is doing it) and have never had an issue. Id guess most 2.4lt Defender pumas that have had a remap in Perth have been done by Rovertech (you will find they were the first to be doing it). Most issues Ive seen with remaps on the puma have been ones from the U.KQuote:

Any decent repairer with good knowledge and good diagnostic tools wont have an issue with a remap (if its a good one that has been done properly).
Do hope you get it sorted, and keep us upto date on progress.

P.S I change fuel filters on ALL diesels EVERY service (so 10K), I fail to understand anyone not doing this on ANY common rail diesels with the pressures they run.
Well its going again but.
I had the ecu sent back and my original programme put back in but also the CHT had gone,apparently showing 150c so it shuts the motor down after a few seconds.
Now it gets tricky,rover tec say the CHT broke the miniute it left there shop and then it broke again when i got to hervey bay.
Not sure if i can belive in such bad luck...again,it ran perfect before it went in there and didnt when i took it on my trip.8k doing over 20lts per 100.
So now im not sure what to do,although it is running i need to get to the bottom of it if i can.
Its back to how it was and its only talking to a chap on here thats advised that i may even consider an ecu upgrade again...if at all.But alas...
Due to other circumstances its going,up for sale on gumtree brisbane.
If anyones interested have a look at it and who knows.
Not sure if the price is ok but got 41 on it as its got **** loads of stuff done.Will wait and see.
Thanks all..
