They keep you on your toes, these Pumas.
Or off them In the last 24 hours Mrs Do$h has complained of a vibration through the accelerator pedal, bad enough to leave her foot numb, like pins and needles, after just 10 miles. I thought she was pulling my leg, but after taking it out for a spin just now there is a definite "buzz" in the pedal. The rest of the car seems ok but then much of what you touch in the car is 1) only touched intermittently and 2) reasonably well damped. It is at its worst at 1800rpm - 2000rpm but is present at all engine speeds. It doesn't come in at a given road speed, so drivetrain resonance can be counted out. Worse under load but still there on a trailing throttle. It's as if there's the hint of an inbalance in the injectors. Anyone else come across this? Any thoughts? 54 Freelander modded for mud 2008 D3 SE 2010 90 XS SW 1978 88 Series 3 undergoing surgery with a new owner 2007 90 County Truck Cab - gone 2006 D3 SE - gone 2004 Freelander Sport - gay 1999 Disco V8 ES rotted to bits |

All sorted. A healthy dose of injector cleaner seems to have sorted it.
