Thread: how many km on your td5 engine?

I recently drove a 2001 Discovery that Whyatt's use as a courtesy car
Cant remember the exact mileage but it was around 320000 km
Still ran perfectly and it hasn't had its head done yet

200'000 km on my 2001 D2....Still going good. no smoke etc. Just the usual suspects ie. FPR, Fuel pump, water pump, oil in harness, stater motor contacts etc....

My 2002 (EU3) TD5 has done 218000, the head hasn't been off. Changed the injector loom twice, replaced the FPR and removed the EGR. Thats all that has been done to the engine.

I've been pulling apart a 2000 TD5 that had done 232000km - the head on that had been replaced, it ran very smoothly. Going to list it for sale soon as a long motor. (When you look into it closely there are too many differences between that and an EU3 engine to keep it as a spare.)

Hello,
My TD5 done 200,000ks FPR 3 times leaking again now, injection harness 2 times, Harmonic Balancer blew apart, just the normal stuff.
Goes great looking at a few more mods pretty soon. Uses no oil a little smoke due to the remap.

Opps !! to many beeeeers it is a 2004 Classic brought it when it had 60,000ks 4 years ago.

Don't hate me!
120000kms on my 2000 model Td5.
No issues ... should there be?

2000 Defender 176,000kms, no significant engine work.

1999 Disco 2, over 300,000Km and the head has been off, many hoses replaced, radiator replaced, Harmonic Balancer replaced, Resivoir cap replaced (courtesy of dog trying to eat the last one), injector seals replaced, head gasket replaced, glow plugs replaced, fuel pump replaced, left hand headlight replaced (courtesy of a stupid magpie) oil cooler due to be replaced and yes it is serviced regularly. Note to self never buy a 1999 TD5 again. At least it doesn't smoke. Any earlier in the year it would be a Disco 1.
