Further update on my issue . To date the dealer has replaced Intercooler , MAF , MAP, all boost charge pipes , turbo , turbo actuator , EGR cleaned and new seals , three pressure tests all ok and still has an issue with it going in to limp mode . We thought it was the MAF sensor as when this was removed it ran on a number of test drives without going in to limp mode hence it being replaced. New one fitted and still issues . The dealer is now thinking ( as others have suggested ) electrical . Will be great to get it back - I’ve only had the vehicle 7 days since I bought it in May .

Once it’s sorted, at least you’ve had a heap of parts changed, for free. 2008 2.4 110 Utility Station Wagon XS.

That sounds like the dealer who dignosed my vehicle's failure to fire up, as a faulty starter motor and replaced it. No difference, it was the battery! But at least mine put the old starter motor back and didn't charge me...

If it worked ok with the MAF removed, then it may be worth a look at the wiring to that sensor. Where it enters the plug it can suffer from stress damage:

I noticed that problem on my old 110 and repaired it with a pre-wired plug from the site shop, which you can read all about here:

The O/P has gone quiet.

As LandRoverAnorak has stated, and I’ve also mentioned before. We had a customer, that had the same persistent problem. I noticed that the wiring can actually touch the back of the Puma bonnet, which also probably causes the insulation of the wiring to break. A new pre-wired plug, and a cable tie, to pull it down away from the bonnet, and he had no more problems 👍

l wonder if he rejected the vehicle and bought something else.

It’ll be a blocked oil cooler, the oil gets hot and the sensor cuts the power this doesn’t throw a mil light and doesn’t read on the water thermostat so temp looks normal.

It would appear that the roller coaster experience of Land Rover ownership wasn't for him?

Thanks for all the comments to my issues . Sorry I’ve been silent for sometime due to holidays and then my parents both became ill so the Defender issues took a back seat . So where are we now - regrettably and frustratingly the car is still not with me . The vehicle has been sent to Bishops 4x4 in Peterborough by the selling dealer . They initially thought electrical but all the tests and checks show this not to be the case . The car is not logging any codes or throwing the MIL ( although it initially did when the car arrived - showed boost fault ) . They have done all the fuel supply incl breathers etc , tested fuel rail and injectors . Also checked EGR cooler as known to rot from inside out , accelerator potentiometer , turbo actuator , the known issue with the rev counter sending spurious messages to ECU , all the earths . They are going to replace the temp sensor on the block again ( supplying dealer replaced this with MAP and MAF although they feel the erratic nature of it going in to fault possibly points to ECU . They have one ready to fit but want to do this as last resort as they cannot send it back once attached to the vehicle . Since June I’ve had the car for 8 days in total - frustrating to say the least . The one thing no one has checked is the oil temp sensor but wouldn’t this throw a fault code ? I’ve asked for it back by end of the month - I’m meeting friends at Chatsworth and they don’t believe I actually own one ! Let’s see what next couple of weeks bring - almost forgotten what she looks like !

I had a leak on my inlet manifold gasket which was doing the same thing. Wouldn’t rev above 2500rpm. Switched off and ran fine for a bit then same again. Worth a look.

The photo below shows damage to the turbo actuator on my 2.4, and although the damage looks minimal it was sufficient to cause the turbo to stick in full boost with spectacular consequent sound effects. It could equally well have stuck in zero boost or the default mid position. Damage this minor could be causing your symptoms.
