No, very clear answer. Thanks for that. And yes, I do have a TD5.

On the V8 it works a treat! I love the ability to measure so much and yes it had an impact on my driving.....they claim it can save 30% on the fuel bills...not sure about that, but I will give them credit for 10% more K's out of every tank.......all I need now is another tool to clear the injector codes it keeps bringing up:-(

The scangauge won't cleat them? What codes are they, haven't had any so far that it would see but not clear.

I get P0201 thru to P0208 plus P 154, P 134, P 1590. I know that the first 8 have to do with the injectors (I run gas) but the others?

Any pics of it in action?
how much dash does it take up?

**clubagreenie** · 14th July 2011, 02:18 PM

P0134 02 Sensor Circuit No Activity Detected (Bank I Sensor 1)

P0154 02 Sensor Circuit No Activity Detected (Bank 2 Sensor 1)

P1590 in subaru in neutral position switch, in opel/vauxhaul is EGR valve related. No LR specific listings. It has a listing generically for heater temp control switch as well plus a generic ABS sensor fault.

Clubagreenie - would that P0132,154 occur because of the gas?

P1590 - Three amingos?

Pedro,

I like the position as I can easily see it and toggle between the numerous functions. I'm looking at installing a 2 Din GPS etc unit and will probably attemp to intergrate both....I have a idea but not all the know how yet.

Don't want to rain on your party but I had similar readings when I had a blown head gasket, but was lean readings on one bank (the one that was blown).

I can't see it getting no readings while on gas as it should have some O2 coming through unless the gas system disconnects the sensors from the ECU in which case you just need to live with it and check them probably annually on petrol for a while to make sure they're still functioning. Actually try running on petrol, clear the faults and see if they reappear.

I'd purchased a one hour subscription to the LR techinfo site yesterday and noticed that they have a section devoted to diagnostic troubleshooting workflows for various P-codes. It can be found under Diagnostics > General > Diagnostic Flows.

I was looking at TD5 related material so didn't pay too much attention as what was there seemed to be V8 specific.

If you buy one hour access to the diagnostics section for a single model and year it's £3.00 or to all years of a single model £7.00.

To give you a taster of what is available I've attached some of the flows relevant to the codes reported. I'd point out that there are flows for pretty much every V8 p-code, so there should be no excuse for guess work. It just requires spending the equivalent of a
