I don’t even have the motor any more. |

Sure enough, it's started happening again.
Very intermittent. Always when idling. Sometimes when I first start the engine, sometimes when I've been driving all day and just stop at a junction.

So what was the end result of all this. Was it the EGR or the VCV or something else?
Frustratingly, the problem seems to have gone away again. So I'm none the wiser. |

Thanks for your input.
The general performance seems fine normally, although it's never been particularly smooth when i first manoeuvre in the car park where i live.
I'll go out for a longer dri ... |

Thanks. I thought it might be something like that.
Should this have been obvious to my indi LR garage when they serviced it, or can they be forgiven for missing it? |

Ah, you mean tachograph, not tachometer! Makes more sense now.
I thought they were the same thing!
I had thought that when I took it out I could just remake the cabling where it had been cut in ... |

Well:
The engine light turned out to be due to a p1103 (MAF fault), which I'll deal with later.
The power increase turned out to be because I'd reconnected the tachometer that I'd disconnected ab ... |

My ARB doesn't have any guy ropes or even anything to attach any ropes to.
Don't they have wind in Australia?
Certainly in future, I'll check the wind direction ... |

Not until I get home next week. I've got about 500 miles to do before then.
Is the EGR valve a big deal or can it just be blanked off like on a TD5? |
