Took my D II to the mechanic. They hooked it to their LR software and got the following fault:

code 023c can line fault n not valid
code 0108 volt supply- engine controller code

They could not make heads or tails of these codes.

I paid my 130.00 (scanning and checking tranny fluid) and drove home. On the freeway it hiccuped, then stalled out at the exit. I started it and it went into limp mode. nearly stalled at a couple more lights till I got home. Turned it off and started it, ran fine in a ride around the block.

I have an appt at the LR dealership (gulp) on Monday. Any thoughts?

What sort of problem are you having?
These are some weird numbers, as far as I know there is no # 023c, there is a P0108 which is a pressure issue with the manifold.
Go to a local auto parts store and get your codes read for free and see what they come up with, then go get your $130 back.

 

$130 and they couldnt even tell you what the problem was? I would go back and pitch a big fit. And I mean BIG.
AutoZone will read your codes for free, hell, you can buy your own scan tool for under $50.
A similar problem was posted before and if I remember right it was low voltage, either from a bad alternator or bad battery, I dont knoiw which.
Find a new mechanic, unless he has RoverCom he dosnt have the LR computer program.

 

The mechanic said they were Rovacom codes- not regular OBD II codes.

 

Your mechanic is an idiot.
Go get your codes read at your local auto parts store for free and get back to us with the 4 digit codes, then go get your money back.

 

Thanks guys, I was out of pocket for the weekend. Here's an update. I have a pocket code reader plugged it in Sunday afternoon for kicks and guess what I got?...P0335- crank sensor! I called and left a message with the owner who promptly called me back. He swore up and down when they had the LR in last week they got no such code, just what was listed above. He went on the say further he did not want to start throwing expensive parts at it to see if he could solve the problem. We agreed that he would install the sensor for the cost of parts only, which I agreed to. I did tell him that I thought it was the crank sensor when I dropped it off originally- they should have just changed it out, I believe. I am wondering though what his truely Land Rover experience is, and if they really have a LR code reader. Besides the dealer in my area(Akron/Canton, OH) he is the only one who will on LR.

 

More codes-

My mechanic installed the new crank sensor and cleared codes again (he did this at no charge).

I posted above I got a P0335 code for crank sensor on my OBDII scanner. Here are the additional "factory" codes he pulled:

108 Permenant voltage supply fault, not currently present

111 Reference Mark Detector Fault (Reluctor Wheel) not currently present

0010 Lambola Sensor upstream CAT BK1

023c Can Message N not valid not currently present

He said the 111 referenced the crank sensor. He thinks the other ones were thrown when I drove it over and the truck kept trying to stall and hiccup.

I pick it up tonight. I'll let you know how she drives.

 

A p0111 fault code is for "Intake air temp. range/ performance problem" and has nothing to do with a crank sensor.
Find a new mechanic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Mike-

I don't think I disagree with you. When I did my own OBD II scan, it clearly indicated a crank sensor malfunction (PO335). Funny thing is, I had my 9 year old son do the same ('cause he thought it was cool), and he got the same. I did not erase the codes, but when I got the list of codes the mechanic got, it was not one of them. The codes he downloaded came from some sort of "Mastertech" system they use to scan for "factory codes".

 

HE is full of strange stuff.
A mechanic can't pull different codes, for the engine, then we can.
I agree, a p0335 is a crank sensor, the p0111 code mentioned is not for a Maf is what I was saying.
