Thread: Discovery 3 fault codes help please

The last one EGR failure I’d bet on as is an expected and common fault (with all diesel engines). Choices are replacing with new or a ECU software patch along with physically deleting them.

Touch wood - my MY08 still on originals at 235k km but something I want to delete ASAP

Just to add to original post.

Vehicle has 197000 and still drives great.

You'll probably find if you clear them they will eventually come back, but you won't ever notice why the got logged in the first place, And won't notice what problem they are causing either!

The only one of concern is

Code P045D
Exhaust gas recirculating B control circuit. High
( intermittent)
General failure information

You need new EGRs or get them blanked and ECU patch installed to cancel the check engine light.


Communication errors come and go and are only a concern if consistent and cause fault lights and messages.

Some of the EU4 spec tdv6's don't actually put the check engine light on if you have failed egr's, does anyone know if simply blanking these is enough? Or is there other engine related issues that can be caused?

All i have heard is the opposite, early ones are fine but EU4 need the software patch to remove the CEL.
I'll find out soon as i just blanked mine.

Yeah as far as I know the early EU4 didn't need patching to stop throwing a CEL, and none of the EU3 ones needed it either.

I'm not sure though when the change happened.
