I have a 11/09 v8 turbo diesel troop carrier the motor has only 215,000 km ticks over like a clock.
I have just been told by diesel mechanic that there was a problem with some of the v8's over heating
doing heads & problems with injectors. Does anybody know which are the the problem v8's & which
are not?
Cheers

I reckon the problem is the owner not doing the correct maintenance. Replacing blocked radiators is cheaper than replacing the heads and that is what causes over heating.

Engine makes a low pitch popping sound when ever I turn it off.
What could it be?
Started to notice it a few days ago and now the engine light came on while driving yesterday.

Hi, wondering if I ought to remove the snorkel air intake altogether, not planning on river crossings or submerging the 76 . Thoughts ?

Steve

If your not planning on doing any water crossings. You'd be better off leaving the snorkel on as it provides and elevated intake which will provide cleaner and cooler air. You can also consider changing the snorkel head to a ram design that will push air in

Motor cuts out when switching to auxilliary fuel tank???

Would say there’s a blockage in the fuel line before the fuel switch solenoid or a faulty solenoid itself, it’s located inside the chassis rail at rear of cab or if it’s a troopy half way down on passenger side

Hi yaknowit just wondering if you found the cause of the turbo flutter. Mine is currently doing this and we have narrowed it down to vacume issues just trying to pin point exactly what the issue is

my 2007 workmate turbo v8 diesel started making tapping noises which then turned into a lot of clunking and banging but settled once stationary idling but a persistant knock was still in the top left area of my motor? I had filled tank only 35kms earlier. could it be dirty fuel and if so what should i do. currently to scared to drive it at all. Darren ps if fuel needs to be drained would it be okay to use in my 80 series 1hz engine?

The vacuum pump driven off the LHS cam can get noisey, you can hear them through the catch can with the lid off or through the passenger side rocker cover midway along with a stethoscope. Put your foot on the brake & see if the noise changes tone.

I have a 2011 v8 landcruiser single cab just wondering how u get the evaporator core out. Thanks

I cleaned mine (2007) in-situ by sawing a hole in the discharge shroud and spraying the core with engine degreaser then boiling water. That washed out the gunk which then blocked the drain tube, but that was easily if dirtily fixed by poking a wire up from below.

G'day. I have a 5year old VDJ at the cattle station I work for, that has lost power. The electric plug in on the top, when unplugged while idling, on 4 of them makes no difference to the idle speed. The outside 2 on the drivers side and the inside 2 on the passengers side are at fault. There appears to be no voltage going to them. Is there a fuse problem or some kind of module at fault? It has been worked as the Bore wagon for a few years before I arrived and I am a bit scratchy on modern motor vehicle electronics they put in cars these days. Being "old school", any ideas?
