1999-2002 Land Rover Defender Workshop Manual

ENGINE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
The turbocharger is exposed to extremely high operating temperatures (up to 1000 °C, 1832 °F) because of the
hot exhaust gases and the high speed revolution of the turbine (up to 15,000 rev/min). In order to resist wear of
the turbine bearings a flow of lubrication oil is supplied from the engine lubrication system to keep the bearings
cool. Oil is supplied from a tapping at the front of the full-flow filter adaptor housing via a metal pipe with banjo
connections. Oil is returned to the sump via a metal pipe which connects to the cylinder block at a port below the
turbocharger assembly.
A heatshield is attached to the LH side of the engine to protect adjacent components from the heat generated at
the turbocharger. The heatshield is attached to the engine by 2 bolts. An additional bolt attaches the heatshield to
the turbocharger casting.
The ECM controls the amount of boost pressure the engine receives by way of the turbocharger. When full boost
is reached a control signal is sent to the wastegate modulator, and a vacuum is applied to the wastegate valve.
The wastegate valve opens, bypassing some of the exhaust gases away from the turbine to be output to the
exhaust system.
The engine should be allowed to idle for 15 seconds following engine start up and before the engine is switched
off to protect the turbocharger by maintaining oil supply to the turbine bearings.
INTERCOOLER
The intercooler is an air-to-air heat exchanger which lowers the intake air temperature to obtain a higher air
density for better combustion efficiency. The intercooler receives compressed air from the turbocharger via a
metal pipe. It cools the intake air via the intercooler matrix and delivers it to the intake manifold by means of a
rubber hose which connects between the intercooler outlet and the intake manifold. The rubber hose is connected
to ports at each end by metal clips.
The intercooler is located at the front of the engine bay, forward of the radiator.
