Loud clunk in idle
Sat in traffic with engine idling. A loud clunk and missed a beat, did it twice in a minute. Quite disturbing.

Any ideas?

Had previous problems starting after cold nights. Took twice times six turn overs to start this morning after -1 last night. Was advised to call LR Assist.

Just like going to the doctor....no faults found appart from lower than average current draw from glow plugs.

Report is "Suspect glow plug fault and EGR fault" It's going to dealer in the morning.

Might get them to sort out the passenger door catching on gutter and the door stays not keeping doors open Whistle
