MAINTENANCE
RESET EMISSION MAINTENANCE REMINDER -
USA
The emission maintenance reminder is designed to
activate at 52,500 and 105,000 miles respectively and
will illuminate a 'Service Engine' red warning light in
instrument binnacle.
The emission maintenance reminder must be reset
after required maintenance has been carried out and
a new tamperproof label fitted by a Land Rover of
North America dealer. This emission maintenance
reminder is part of the Emission Control System
Reset
1.The control unit is located in the passenger
footwell.
2.Identify control unit and remove from plug.
3.Remove tamperproof label to reveal access hole
for resetting.
4.Place a thin metallic probe into access hole and
momentarily electrically short between reset pins
inside unit.RECOMMENDED SERVICE ITEMS
Refer Service Schedule sheets for intervals.
Clean sunroof drain tubes, clean and lubricate guide
rails and slides.
Renew the hydraulic brake fluid.
See BRAKES,
Repair, Brake System Bleed
Renew all hydraulic brake fluid, seals, brake servo
filter and flexible hoses.
All working surfaces of the master cylinder and caliper
cylinders should be examined and renewed where
necessary.
ABS vehicles only - renew hydraulic brake fluid and
flexible hoses examine the working surfaces of the
caliper cylinders and renew the seals or cylinders
where necessary.
Air cleaner - When the vehicle is used in dusty or field
conditions or deep wading, frequent attention to the
air cleaner may be required.
ABS vehicles used extensively in arduous off-road
conditions - check the rear wheel road speed sensor
for abrasive wear.

radius of 114mm from the centre.
10.Turn the flywheel and check that run-out does
not exceed 0,05 to 0,07mm. Should run-out be
excessive, remove the flywheel and check again
for irregularities on the crankshaft and flywheel
mating faces and the dowel.
11.Reverse removal procedure. 1 to 6.

FAULT DIAGNOSIS ENGINE OIL PRESSURE TEST
Service tools:
LRT-12-052: Pressure test equipment
WARNING: Use suitable exhaust
extraction equipment, if test is being
carried out in workshop.
WARNING: If vehicle has been running,
engine oil will be hot, care must be taken
when fitting equipment to prevent
personal injury due to scalding.
Test
1.Check lubricant is to correct level.
2.Place vehicle on a ramp [hoist].
3.Disconnect battery negative lead. Remove oil
pressure switch.
4.Fit the test gauge.
5.Reconnect battery negative lead.
6.Start and run engine to normal operating
temperature.
7.At a steady engine speed of 2500 rev/min -
engine oil pressure reading should be - 2.75 bar
(40 lbf/in
2).
8.If the pressure is low - Remove and overhaul oil
pump
CYLINDER COMPRESSION - TEST
Equipment:
Compression pressure gauge
Test
1.Start and run engine until normal engine
operating temperature is achieved (thermostat
open).
2.Remove all spark plugs.
3.Disconnect both coil negative (WB) leads
4.Insert compression gauge, crank engine until
reading stabilises.
5.Expected readings, throttle fully open, battery
fully charged:
8.31:1 = 10.2-10.9 bar, 150-160lbf/in
2
9.35:1 = 11.5-12.2 bar, 170-180lbf/in2

FAULT DIAGNOSIS ENGINE NOISES
Excessive or obtrusive noise from the engine
compartment originates from three main sources:
A. The exhaust system, which makes an
unmistakable and easy to diagnose noise.
B. External components emit the greatest variety of
noises, but are also easy to diagnose by simply
removing the drive belt.
C. Engine internal mechanical noises which can
vary in volume and pitch and may be a
combination of, tapping - knocking or rumbling,
are the most difficult to diagnose. The following
is therefore a guide to diagnosis of engine
internal mechanical noises only.
Engine internal mechanical noises.
Single or multiple, light tapping noise, particularly
when engine is cold.
See Description and
operation, Description
1.Is engine oil level correct?
NO - Top up to correct level.
See
LUBRICANTS, FLUIDS AND
CAPACITIES, Information,
Recommended Lubricants and Fluids
YES - Continue.
2.Is the lubricating pressure correct?
NO -
See Engine Oil Pressure Test
YES - Suspect valve operating mechanism.
3.To confirm diagnosis, remove the rocker covers
and with the engine idling, insert a feeler gauge
of 0,015mm between each rocker and valve
stem. A faulty valve operating mechanism will
emit a different noise when the feeler gauge is
inserted.
See Repair, Rocker Shaft Renew
Heavy knocking noise (particularly on load and
when engine is hot).
See Description and
operation, Description
1.Is engine oil level correct?
NO - Top up to correct level.
See
LUBRICANTS, FLUIDS AND
CAPACITIES, Information,
Recommended Lubricants and Fluids
YES - Continue.
2.Is the lubricating pressure correct?
NO -
See Engine Oil Pressure Test
YES - Drain engine oil and filter, and examine
for metallic contamination.
3.Is the oil contaminated with metal particles?
YES - Suspect faulty big end bearings. To
confirm diagnosis, short out the ignition to
each spark plug in turn. The noise will
disappear or be reduced when the
cylinder with the faulty big end is shorted
out.
4.If noise is not conclusively diagnosed, check the
security of the flywheel and crankshaft front
pulley. Temporarily release the drive belt to
reduce general noise level and use a
stethoscope to locate source of noise.
Heavy rumbling noise (particularly during hard
acceleration).
See Description and operation,
Description
1.Is engine oil level correct?
NO - Top up to correct level.
See
LUBRICANTS, FLUIDS AND
CAPACITIES, Information,
Recommended Lubricants and Fluids
YES - Continue.
2.Is the lubricating pressure correct?
NO -
See Engine Oil Pressure Test
YES - Drain engine oil and filter, and examine
for metallic contamination.
3.Is the oil contaminated with metal particles?
YES - Suspect faulty main bearings. If noise is
not conclusively diagnosed, check the
security of the flywheel and crankshaft
front pulley. Temporarily release the drive
belt to reduce general noise level and use
a stethoscope to locate source of noise.
