You should’ve mentioned that if you’re going to clean the throttlebody you should also clean the mass airflow sensor which is right next to the air filter. Also, if you’re going to change the spark plugs out on an LR3 you first need to disconnect all of the coils and if it’s running rough it’s worth checking that all of those coils are firing correctly, then change the spark plugs 👊

Hi Waldo, I own the same Disco 3 V8, which was the better choice compared to the 2.7TDV6, that tends to spill its guts by the roadside on a too regular basis. I'm with you when it comes to diesel, and it is always my first choice. If I had the time and expertise, I would buy a discarded TDV6, and fit a Ford 3.2 DuraTorq i5. Engine management I assume would be "easier" to marry because they are from the same company, and most protocols and sensors should remain identical. You probably won't be able to put your hands on one in the US, but something to consider. I'm eager to see how you solve the electronics headache with the swap. All the best, I'll be following your videos!

Haha it's one of the reasons why I love diesels: they're simple (well, the good ones are)

Great video, awesome work you do, I admire your courage to tackle such a complicated beast. A few pointers for you, as I have owned a Range Rover Sport for the last 15 years ('06) and have learned a few things along the way. The ZF transmission is very good. The centre differential is always open and it will only lock (electronically) when using any of the Terrain Response programs. Otherwise you can get cross axles on Normal drive mode and get stuck and embarrassed.This Jaguar engine is great (earlier models had a BMW problematic engine), once you get it sorted out it will be more that enough, and it works well with the rest of the components. DON"T change it! You need to clean or change the MAF sensor (cheap and easy). Change all the ignition coils as well , because if one of them goes the car goes into limp mode all of a sudden and you don't want to be caught out in the bush. The emergency break releases automatically when you press the accelerator, and in case it gets stuck there's a manual release cable inside the cabin. Watch out for the break lines because they rust and can break. CHANGE them to be sure. The air ride is ok, but error prone. Ride height sensors, compressor problems, leaky airbags, all kinds of problems! Replace them with O.M.E. coil overs and the ride is awesome and worry free! The parking break needs to be adjusted every time you change the breaks and rotors, there's a special procedure you have to perform to let the vehicle adjust itself to it as well. If the controller in the back breaks down (the plastic cogs wear out and chip), it's a pain in the ass to replace. Another thing you'll need to check and possibly replace , is the control arms and bushings, front and back. It's a heavy vehicle and they wear out. Also replace the radiator thermostat and sensor, as it will throw an engine light soon enough. If I think up of something else I'll tell you next time. Good luck, best regards from Canada. :)

@@WaldosWorld If the compressor has never been serviced pretty much 100% sure you'll have to replace the air dryer beads. Pretty easy job just gotta pop the cover off 3 bolts then drop the compressor with 3 more bolts. The front 2 hoses are easy but leave the rear 2 large hoses for after the compressor is unbolted then you can pull down on the compressor while pushing up on the locks. If you try to do the rears with compressor in it can be impossible. 1 screw to take the dryer off, twist and pull. You can replace the beads for like 5 bucks but a kit with the filter pads isn't much more. You really have to have a good look at the plastic on the dryer cap between the air fittings for a hairline crap. Best bet is buy the kit that replaces the beads and cap with new o-rings. Also take the case off the electric motor and pray it out with some electrical contact cleaner and barring leaks your suspension will be fine.

On my list to do, do you know if there is a MAP Sensor at the rear/cab end of the engine that needs cleaning too?

Hey waldo my 06 lr3 sometimes it has a ticking noise when i put it in park or on start up but when i put my foot on the brake it stops the ticking noise any ideas

I'm waiting for that diesel swap. I am also going to do a diesel swap in my LR3, I am also probably going with a Mercedes OM series engine. Have you found out how you'll control the transmission? I've only found one option so far. The electrical issue is probably from some corroded wires cause by a water leak, most likely from the sunroof, but also could be from bad seam sealer on the roof body seams or from the windshield adhesive.

You might want to check TCCM behind the battery to see if there is corrosion. It could get wet and corroded and could give you tons of issues! When you are done with yours, come fix my LR3! lol

What are you thoughts on the OM 642? The 648s successor ? I only ask because looking at the diesel engines that Mercedes has produced over the years, this one has stood the test of time, the 606 & it’s successors have had pretty short production runs between 4 & 6 years whereas the 642 is still in production since 2005 !

I do like the long production run for sure! There are a couple things I don't like about it though. I have a personal preference for inline engines vs V engines (the straight-6 in particular is great because of its inherent balance and torque). Inline engines are usually easier to work on because there's more access to the sides of the engine. Second, the OM642 has modern emissions garbage like DEF and DPF, which is very undesirable to me

I've already started filming the next Cummins video and I hope it won't take too long to finish it up, but who knows? 🤷‍♂️

Man.....im surprised you were able to cover the sparkalater plug change in one video.....most cars or trucks these days you spend 4 or 5 hrs just removing crap to even get to the engine 15 mins to change them then 5 hrs to reinstall everything .....or pay 4 prices to let one of these so called dealership techs change them only to have to pay an additional price for something they broke that was (supposedly)already broke .........

Hahaha that's a good point. I was going to complain about how hard it was to change the plugs, but I guess it wasn't really that bad in the grand scheme of things 😂

Be careful doing the oil change. Make sure you have some protection with the lift, air fails and 2.5 tons come crashing on you.

Yeah, that would hurt if an air bag decided to deflate, huh?

Yeah, it does seem like a good engine! The diesel swap is for a couple reasons: I prefer diesels, and I think it would be a fun project 👌

Hi Waldo, Your R32 is a gas engine isn't it? It should be a VR6. NA too, if I remember correctly. That has the same design flaw of needing those spark-o-lators (shamelessly stolen from Derek @ Vice Grip Garage) to ignite the fuel mixture. You must have run across them before at one time or another. Thanks for the video! -mike

your dog is trumbling....

The best land rover rough idle fix is removing the motor and using it for a boat anchor. Put a Cummins in there and drive it for the rest of your life. Land Rover makes the worst SUV. Maximum cost for minimal value.

The sound of a proper truck engine would be epic -- I think the Mercedes diesel I'm considering is on the quiet side 😕

Had one...never again.....LR is 💩

Mercedes engine in a British car? Get out (I know Aston Martin),

Aspin means "Asong Pinoy" or literally means Filipino Dog. Why would you name a dog with a kind breed. It is like calling your dog "Hi German Shepherd, Come boy". I am one step away from unsubscribing. Tell me a good reason why I won't.

Did you move the throttle inside valve open and clean all the way inside?
