    Td5 D2 Just Stopped Running

    Hi all,

    Went around to a fellow forum member’s house this afternoon to look at his td5 disco that is not running.

    The vehicle was running but came to a stop just around the corner from his house. so it only made it a few hundred meters.

    I plugged the nanocom in and checked for faults.

    It had open circuit on all 5 injectors.

    Fuel pump tests fine as do the injectors.

    I cleared the faults and cranked it over again the faults did not return.

    My first thought was crank angle sensor?

    He is going to get one during the week and we will though it in and see how it goes.

    Any thoughts or ideas would be great

    Cheers Ben....

    Can't see why it would have happened but check the inertia switch?

    To check the crank angle sensor
    Disconnect red plug at ecu measure voltage between terminals +13 and -36 of red plug whilst cranking engine over. Normal reading would be 2-3 volts cranking.

    If its not the crank position sensor, I would remove the front plastic plug in the head and check for a broken timing chain!

    I have just had one today... same symptoms.. car driving fine. stopped. would not restart with no other issues.

    Swapped out the fuel pump as it sounded unhappy, and the crank sensor even though it was showing no faults for a known good one.

    Started to dig deeper, and the timing chain is broken....

    The valves are flat to the top of the pistons.
    If the chain breaks the pistons push the valves up in to the head and the rockers break next to the rollers.
    Been there twice

    There should be some pictures on here of another members rig doing it recently.

    'Been there twice'...this is the first time I've heard of the timing chains being a problem - does it mainly occur on high km motors? I always thought timing chains got noisy before they let go (this is the advice I was given for my motorbike anyway...)
    Always looking for creative new ways to get bogged... :whistling:

    76 RR...sold coz fuel was expensive at 70c/l :eek:
    93 200 Tdi Disco...old faithful...sold to make way for...
    99 Td5 Disco ACE...nice drive...hopefully reliable...
