Aside from a few teething problems, the Td5 is a quieter Land Rover engine, performs better at high crusing speeds, and has very similar overall performance. However, Land Rover still retained the 300Tdi for export models and the military. Td5 service kit. Check out this list of items that are required as a "service kit" for the Td5. Reconnect the stepper motor plug. Switch the ignition on - DO NOT START THE VEHICLE. Disconnect the stepper motor plug. Start the vehicle in neutral without touching the accelerator.

Timing belt changes - some useful tips. Toothed rubber timing belts were used on many Land Rovers through the 1980s and 90s, including Defender (2.5 diesel and turbodiesel, 200 and 300TDi), Discovery and Range Rover (200 and 300TDi). The belts are pretty sturdy and designed for a long life - change interval is either 60K or 72K depending on model.
