Symptom 499000 Basic Engine
Content
Issue:
Fuel injectors clogged leading to potential problems such as poor running, poor fuel economy, excessive exhaust emissions, hard starting, rough idle, misfires and engine detonation.
Cause:
Poor fuel quality or fuel contaminants restricting the fuel injector flow rate.
Action:
Land Rover engineering now approve the use of BG 44K Power Enhancer Cleaner (which is sold in an 11oz/325ml can or bottle) on 4.2/4.4 AJV8 and 5.0 AJ133 Gasoline engine derivatives. The above mentioned additive should be used in the first instance in an attempt to cure a suspected ‘clogged’ injector (misfire DTC maybe stored) rather than unnecessary replacement.
NOTE: Land Rover recommend only using the above product a maximum of twice between each 15K service. Further information on the additive can be found on the BG Products website
