Whilst I have the 4.4 TDV8, it still doesn’t sound right to me.
Perhaps, it just needs a good clear out and will be ok?
Given I have the same answer from two trusted local garag ... |

2nd garage, 2nd opinion.
The 2nd garage says what's coming out the back is normal and emissions are fine. He said he'd be concerned if it was constant but, it really only appears when the revs are ... |

Very interesting that 3 people have now suggested the cause as a remap / tuning box.
I will ask the garage if they can look today to rule out any kind of mechanical failure and their view if it cou ... |

I only bought the car a few months ago so, no idea if it's been chipped.
It recently had an oil leak. This was caused by a minor leak from a turbo hose and the rocker cover gaskets however, this ha ... |

The cloud is pretty much each and every time I floor it. Just a quick puff of soot and then it goes clear again. If the revs stay below around 3,000, there is no soot/smoke.
Intake manifold is a hi ... |

| Under heavy acceleration / going over 3,000 RPM, my 3.6 TDV8 releases a nice cloud of soot diesel smoke (it releases one cloud then, it stops). The smoke is dark grey to black in colour and looks and ... |

Subwoofer sorted. This was just needing new bolts.
The low range in the driver's door was actually suffering from coil rub. I tried to gently take this apart to grease however, the terminals inside ... |

What I was thinking was to have either Two low/mid or two Low range only speakers in the rear pillars. I believe these are 100mm.
Useful to know if the current ones are already full range speakers. ... |

This question was not asked on the other forum.
So, I ask why those speaker grilles are there at all? Land Rover were obviously wrong in just adding more speakers on some models, apparently. I find ... |

OK, understood.
I wondered, as it looks like it separates.
I will remove and add new bolts with thread seal tomorrow. |

| I would say the existing speakers are very good and, there's no need to replace them. I'd just like a bit more bass and a bit more oomph. Adding 2 speakers to the rear pillars seems a sensible option. |
