Hi All
I got an engine malfunction light late this afternoon. No funny noises, performance drop, temperature increase or limp mode. Just a light. I looked at some other threads about restarting a number of cycles to clear the fault, as well as the distinct possibility of it being the MAF or EGR. What's the best cheap diagnostic tool that's available out there? The Foxwell nt204 looks pretty good at less than 50 GBP. Any recommendations? If I don't sort it out over the weekend, I will go off to the local indie LR garage on Monday... Regards David Dave's not here man... |

Hello Farmer58za

I bought one of these a while ago for my puma, very basic but reads faults and clears them for £15 inc p&p. a bargain.
https://www.ebay.co.uk/i/151977163155?chn=...amp;crdt=0 It's got me going a couple of times before the BAS tool and remap.  Just because you're offended doesn't mean you're right. |

That sounds a whole lot better that the standard Landrover response: "That'll be (add large sum here) + VAT"

First time it happened I took mine to garage..
Then bought an ultra gauge Great bit of kit reset it myself, use it for engine temp, revs, speed many other gauges. Only around £60 and small enough to fit in that gap between speedo and rev counter |

I parked the Landy till this afternoon. Started it up and no warning light...
 Maybe 5 or 6 re-start cycles from first seeing it. That's good news in the short term. I will get some OBD scanner device for the future.
Thanks for all of your input. Regards David Dave's not here man... |
