Hi all, I'm new to the Freelander and this site and I'm glad this resource is here.

I have just bought an 02 plate TD4 GS and I wonder if anyone can tell me where the fuel filter is likely to be. I was given a new filter with the vehicle ( a canister with a pipe fitting at each end) and having read some posts I,m hoping it will not be under the wheel arch. I intend changing the oil oil filter and pollen filter as well as it is going to be on my drive for a couple of weeks due to an ongoing motor claim on my other vehicle and the inability to swap over the car insurance til the claim is settled.

Under the wheel arch. Easy to get and fit.

I changed my fuel pump there and it took 1 hour from changing out of work suit to putting it back on.

Did you find it? It's not neccesarrily under the wheel arch. I have an 02 td4 GS and on my one it's under the bonnet, left of the fuse box, if you stand in front of it. The one is the pump the other the filter.

mines a 2002 td4 and the fuel pump and filter are fitted behind the rear drivers side wheel arch liner

not sure what year they changed from under the bonnet to the back of the car

mines a 52 plate, wonder if in between this time is had a different location to a 02 plate
