None of this solves the problem but I 'll offer a couple of suggestions: 1. Make sure the coolant system is fully bled. 2. Make sure you have no coolant leaks, check the plastic bleeder valve under the engine cover. They are plastic and do go bad. 3. Make sure you have no intake leaks and have good crankcase breather valve. Posts: 1. Discovery 3 cold start problem. I have a Disco 3 TDV6 HSE 06. During the very cold mornings I have found that when i start the engine it is very rough and lumpy when idle. I have no loss of power, nor is there any dark smoke from the exhaust.

The most commonly reported issue for Land Rover 3.0 SDV6 and TDV6 engines is Oil Starvation, which can result in parts that are not properly lubricated and suffer abnormally high wear and tear. It can even result in outright breakage if not caught soon enough. Problem started at about 240,000kms returning from Arnhem Land, initially erratic but now every 1-2kms.
