    MAP problem D3

    Hi Guys, After seeing a thread just recently I decided to give my MAP sensor a clean. When I removed it from the electronic throttle body it was completely blocked. The hole it came out of was full of gunk so used a vacuum cleaner while I scratched away the gunk. Next came the sensor which cleaned up quite well my09 sensor has a 6mm hole so a lot bigger hole than in the earlier ones. I fitted the cleaned sensor and started the vehicle. A whole series of faults showed up including turbo transmission with a F in the instrument display connected the Nanocom cleared the faults but they wont go away. Unable to drive the vehicle as it has limited gears available. Seems to be a problem with the MAP sensor. Phoned up to get one from a dealership hope you are sitting down $720.00 . Does anyone know where I can get one a bit cheaper. The Boss is not very happy at the moment.

    They are about ?63 plus S&H from Rimmer in the UK but it will take a little while to get here.

    Surely the person who quoted that price must on drugs , or has made a big mistake in looking up the part .

    I rang the guy twice at Macarthur landrover as I thought he had made a mistake with which part I wanted but came back with the same result he told me to check ebay and other avenues as he told me it was over the top. Rimmer in UK $121Aud for genuine Land Rover we must have excessive taxes for it to be $720 in Australia

    A few years ago I got one from the UK in about 4 days for my 3.0 (same as later 2.7) to get it faster than going through the warranty exercise, which I eventually did but without the inconvenience.

    Or he quoted including the housing assembly it sits in perhaps? Check with roverlord as well (vendor on here). Mario got me a couple of spare sensors recently for good value.

    Price was only for the sensor. My MAP sensor has nearly a 6 mm opening where all the others have a nipple with a small opening are all the D3 map sensors the same. I Have a LR part no from Rimmer in the Uk will have to check if its the same for my09 on Monday from the Dealers before or give Mario a ring. Thanks heaps guys for your feedback

    Good result. Where'd you get it in the end and how much?
