Fuel Injector - fuel injection system, cylinder head. Td5 2.5L 5-cylinder turbo diesel.

The Td5 uses electronic unit injectors: each injector sits in its own bore in the cylinder head, is actuated mechanically by the camshaft through a rocker to generate injection pressure, and is metered electrically by a solenoid under engine ECM control. Injection timing and delivered quantity are therefore set by the engine management rather than by a separate high-pressure pump.

This is the early blue-coded injector, the lower peak-pressure calibration used ahead of the later green-coded specification. The colour code identifies the calibration, and the two types are not interchangeable within one engine.

Supplied as a reconditioned unit. The injector sealing washer is renewed on refitting.

Frequently asked questions

What is the TD5 injector and how does it work?
This is an electronic unit injector for the Td5 2.5L five-cylinder turbo diesel. Each injector sits in its own bore in the cylinder head, is actuated mechanically by the camshaft through a rocker to build injection pressure, and is metered electrically by a solenoid under engine ECM control.
What's the difference between the blue and green injectors?
The blue injector is the early, lower peak-pressure calibration used ahead of the later green-coded specification. The colour code identifies the calibration, and the two types aren't interchangeable within one engine. Fitting mixed codes upsets fuelling balance between cylinders.
Which vehicles and VIN range does the blue early injector fit?
It fits the Land Rover Defender Td5 up to VIN 1A622423, and the Discovery 2 Td5 up to VIN 1A736339. Both are the early blue type. Confirm your VIN falls in range before ordering.
Is this reconditioned, and does the sealing washer need renewing?
Yes, it's supplied as a reconditioned unit. The injector sealing washer is renewed on refitting rather than reused, so it seals correctly in the cylinder head bore.
What are the signs of a failing TD5 injector?
Typical signs are rough or uneven idle, a knock or misfire, smoke, and poor starting. A failing injector upsets the metered delivery for its cylinder, so running quality suffers under load.
