I did a pressure compression test on a cold 300Tdi engine. I got more or less the same values down the four cylinders on a dry test. 330psi on cylinder 1; 320psi on #2, 320psi on #3 and finally 310psi on #4. That was the reading on a cold engine.

[@trailerfitter2]

The last set of readings were 400 plus PSI on the cylinders with engine at running temperature?

[@fionanokelly]

Land Rover Toolbox Videos , yes. with the engine nice and warm it was about 400PIS

another great video Chris

Great video and channel I enjoy watching and very helpful. Just a quick question- done a compression test on my 200 tdi which came up with exactly the same result on cyl 1, 3, 4 which was 28 bar and on cyl 2 its 24.. It is a 20% difference and wondered if that would indicate a problem. It uses no water or oil however it smokes white grey unburnt diesel like smoke at start up so done a compression test when replacing the glow plugs of which 3 were shot but started fine. I think its a valve problem. Havent checked the clearances yet.

Hi Chris, good day. My 300tdi just had a timing belt change. After driving almost 1000ks it developed an intermittent loss of fuel supply while pressing the accelerator. One day the engine just stops while i was driving as if it was out of fuel. Now it doesn't start but still cranks. Does it had to do with the timing belt replacement? Hope you can give me an idea. Thank you

[@paulbest6103]

A while ago I saw that you sell some of your videos, but can't seem to find the link? I want to replace the timing belt on my '96 300Tdi Defender, and after a good search, no other channel even comes close to LRTV! Any help to the link where I can purchase the clips?

[@awilke86]

Wish we had you in Australia...

+rocketsurgeon If the weather gets any worse here I might just get over there!!

[@lror]

+Land Rover Toolbox Videos Now thats a great idea 😉

[@onmissionmtb9722]

When would you recommend servicing the injectors on a 2011 2.4 Puma 90k?

[@trailerfitter2]

What does the service workshop manual say?

[@solantar6912]

hello, i have a 300tdi defender 350.00 km still on the same head ,gearbox, it has timing gears as well ive now found that engine oil is filling with diesel and oil is forced up past the glow plug al though not much. Im thinking that diesel is entering past the oil seal at the diesel pump connected to the front case which has oil for the gears. or the other is that diesel is getting past the rings , any advice would be great thanks

[@davestorr6764]

Any chance of doing something similar for TD5?

[@trailerfitter2]

+Dave Storr yes eventually. Just means an investment of engines vehicles etc. I got a stack of 300tdi to do first then I'll be going more into the Diagnostics side of things starting with the Td5

[@davestorr6764]

+Land Rover Toolbox Videos Cheers, looking fwd to it. Keep up the good work, great channel.

[@trailerfitter2]

+Dave Storr Okay, Just by fate you will have noticed that we have the Td5 engine now. Will have to rip into to it at some point. Keep tuned in.

[@davestorr6764]

+Land Rover Toolbox Videos Nice one chaps, always tuned in so looking forward to it. Cheers for the update!

[@CLOWNUK]

hi, i dont understand how .20 mm can be close to 1/2 of a mm . .20 would be closer to 1/4 of a mm. (.90 is close to 1 mm)

[@trailerfitter2]

+oi clown just to keep you on your toes!

[@rovertasmania7033]

Nice vid, once again. You planning on striping the 300tdi?

[@trailerfitter2]

+Rover Tasmania Yes we are now going to be getting into the 300tdi internals. Stay tuned!

[@EdiEco]
