just a thought about the 2.4 being holomogated for the military etc.
are all the LR 2.4 puma's fitted with solenoid injectors? presumably a change to the 2.2 could still retain the solenoid injectors and are these really more robust than the piezo jobbies? I believe my wife picasso has the piezo injectors and has no problems running the last 2 years on pure home made bio and several people on here have had injectors replaced possibly relating to fuel contamination (fuel tank breather issues).

I know the hard core with 2.4 / solenoid inj will swear blind thats the best option but surely a 2.2 with less emisions similar power and piezo injectors would be better?
- especially if the road tax was £200 cheaper?

I gather this engine isn't going to be 'on-line' till mid 2011. its going to include a dpf (particulate filter).
ford trying to standardise their range of engines apparently.

What happened on this topic, any new rumours? Martin seemed to think 2.2 was coming (and knows some people that know some people), but I see mention of 2011 now?

Can't see DPF in a Defender, not very practical? Its also a very expensive item...

Off on a tangent, but this is not the 1st time I have heard that they are reclassifying all defenders as commercials, does this mean that the90 CSW will also be a commercial, ie £200 RFL?????

Got date wrong its Jan 2012. Its from Land Rovers own information so I am pretty sure its correct Whistle

Quote:
"ECWVTA is a system allowing a vehicle designed to be 'type approved' for sale, registration and entry into service across all member states in the EU without the need for further testing in each country.

...

Therefore from MY11 all derivatives are being re-homogolated to N1 commercial vehicle status classification under the ECWVTA system. This change will mean that the Defender range will need to comply with EU5 emissions from 1 January 2012."


So its 2.2 or another EU5 lump, or end of the road. Replacement on time? Disco 3 gone but the memory of the bills remain...

the puma was only ever shelf lifed at 5 years so (as with most models anyway are around 6/7 before something changes) so 07 - 12 is right.

By then the new defender should have been launched. they have been working on it for a while Thumbs Up Mike
