2.2 v 2.4 injector noise
I've been told that part of the reason 2.2s are quieter than 2.4s is that the former have less noisy (Piezo) injectors.

How much difference is there? Does the 2.2's DPF filter also baffle engine noise signifigantly? Land Rover Defenders. 67 years heritage, minimal appearance changes, still going strong all over the world.

I thought it was just down to a better / more soundproof engine cover. John

Me too. Think Dgardel attempted to fit the 2.2 cover to his 2.4.

***EDIT*** He did with a little fettling and modifying!.... Thumbs Up

Hi Sven

dgardel,( who is one of the most technically astute members of Def2) has one and when he gets round to fitting it (before Christmas hopefully Whistle Laughing ) he promised to let us all know how he got on !

Given the size of the 2.2 engine cover I assume this will reduce noise level. Has some of you any knowledge whether this engine cover will fit the 2.4 engine?


Concerning the noise between 2.4 vs. 2.2 the cover IS the difference.....
