[ricau67]

Hello, I have a LR3 2006 w/4.0l and 225 000 km on the counter! Still running very good since I have it ( 2010 whit 80 000 km) But today the check engine ligtn come on, and consumption display start to blink each time when (I gess) trying to read the gaz flow? Then reappear,,

I noticed this morning that the start was a little longer before starting the engine,, Then in evening, the engine light come on and when a start he muffled,, then i start again whit a bit gaz to help starting,, after it run ok !?

Is there someone which recognizes this problem?

Maybe you should get a OBDII dongle. It is pretty cheap, and on your phone/tablet you can read the error codes.

It will tell you why the engine light is on.

Never assume, better to buy ODB II reader and read what is going on, it's cheap

Some auto parts places (Autozone) have OBDII readers that can tell you what the code is.

I just bot the OBDII INOVA 3130 from Canadian Tire (Quebec) 319$ +tx :/ I plug it and pop the code easely ,, code is P0108 and also P0069! It's the EGR the problem!

I look a bit for it and it is expensive! 569$$ The truck run anyway so I'm gonna take the time to find it on the web and do the change myself

You got a fancy one... Mine was like $30, but you need to connect a smartphone to use it...
