My freelander has an issue since about 6 weeks ago after a multi belt replacement at a ‘Land Rover Specialist’.
Since this workshop did not clip the fuel hoses back in place, one got damaged by the crankshaft pulley and caused an air leak.
Received a ‘reduced engine performance’ message just a few miles before getting home. On my driveway, I turned off the car off. And restarted again after a few minutes to check if the message was persistent. It was, so turned the car off and went to bed.
Next morning it wouldn’t start, so I investigated the issue. I found out what was the culprit and repaired the fuel supply line. Primed the system and thought I was good to go…
Since then, not a sign of life except on brake cleaner.
Took her to a local Indy where they investigated a lot and replaced numerous parts: crankshaft sensor + connector, fuel pressure sensor, fuel pressure valve, throttle body, MAF sensor, etc. Fuel pump was send to Bosch for diagnosis. Fuel connections checked (~500 Ohm and tank gauge always steady on 1/2).
DTC’s checked, only B100A-15 is persistent and present since the day I bought the car and drove 1000’s of miles without issues.
Live data gives a cranking speed of ~250 rpm. Fuel rail pressure is about 500 bar. Voltage ~13V.
Everything seems okay. Looks like something is blocking the ECU to fire up the injectors.
In live data, I get a message ’Power supply system start inhibit’ under ‘stop start-feature status-flags’. Can this be the cause and what causes this condition? Anything else?
Any input much appreciated!
