I have exactly the same problem on my 97 300TDI Disco, its only done 54,000miles however the tapping noise form the injection pump turns into a bearing type of continuous rattle at around 3000rpm.

Posted April 10, 2009. my Defender workshop manual covers the earlier engine upto & including the 200Tdi, I have the 300Tdi/R380 gearbox & later LT230 transfer box in a seperate book, there isn't much change between the early & late 200Tdi engines, most of the differences are within threads on this very forum. The Land Rover Td5 engine was already in development for the Discovery when Land Rover was purchased by BMW, whereby it was also integrated into the Defender model. It replaced the 300Tdi due to tigher European emission controls, which was accomplished by controling the engine via an Electronic Control Unit (ECU). Everything relating to the Td5 I did my old 300tdi about 5 years ago and it made a slightly noticable difference also removed the cat and adjusted the fuel pimp timing to the non egr setting.Economy wasnt improved but the drive was. I've never experienced an EDC 300Tdi as their not an official UK market model. Extreme Landy Fan. Sep 4, 2006. #2. You can't use the 300Tdi manual to properly rebuild the 200Tdi.
