No - don't think its the filter - I've taken the filter out of the equation by connecting the the outlet. I can suck fuel through the filter - I just can't push anything through the pump - I've just removed the high pressure feed from the fuel rail and still cant pump anything through. Just...

Morning! Its cold and frosty and I'm not making progress! It *appears* that I can't push fuel through the high pressure pump I've tried a bleeding bulb on both inlet and outlet of filter, I cannot push anything through the filter, so I connected the bulb to the outlet and tried to push onward...

yup - just ask Mrs Joker lol

Thanks Nodge, I will try again - I'm assuming that the following the workshop manual (as I've been doing is the way to go - putting the pump between the inlet pipe from the tank and the filter. This effectively pulls fuel from the tank , pushes it through the filter to the injectors and back to...

garages are for wimps..... actually I'd love to be in the garage but : my project '68 Jag S-Type is in there and my Project 4.2 SC RR Sport is on the hard standing at the side of the garage and my project Defender is on the hard standing at the rear of the garage... so the FL is on ramps on...

I assume it is a coopers one as that is what they list separately https://maltings4x4store.co.uk/land-rover/freelander-2/filtration/fuel-filters/coopers-freelander-2-2-2-fuel-filter-lr001313/

I got a service kit from Maltings 4x4 - not sure what the fuel filter make was - I will investigate

Well…..I’ve used a priming pump which has seen prior service , but definitely not the Land Rover part number recommended….how much trouble am I in …?

Hi all, after lots of servicing activity last weekend including changed throttle body and fuel filter I can't get the car started. There are no codes on SDD (there were before I change the TB) I ran the SDD process for new TB which completed successfully. I suspected that it was an air in...

Used your write up when I did mine yesterday- very helpful

just a thought now I'm sitting in the warm and dry - I fitted a cabin filter yesterday and there was a shed load of wiring in that area - could I have disturbed something that is causing the HDC fault? answers on a postcard

OK - braved the rain (bad idea) now I'm cold, wet and grumpy! But all work abandoned for the rest of today I reckon Got the TB fitted - re-connecting the rubber pipe at the bottom was a real pain. Ran the recalibration in SDD and the horrible buzzing noise is gone and I can hear the FB flap...

Blooming heck! It’s arrived! Only ordered it late yesterday. was just sitting having late Sunday brek and DPD knocked. - happy days

Ok that's good thanks , TB ordered will be with me Weds. Ordered a stat housing as well, hoping to strip the old one today if the rain stops

Hmmm, can I do it with SDD/IDD (never done it before….)?

Does the reverse run via an idler gear of first? (That's what happened with my old '68 Midget, lost reverse and 1st got really noisy - my one and only foray into Gearboxes but I was young , dumb and scared of nothing now I'm just old and dumb! Rebuilt the MG box and lost 3rd gear within a week...

End of day - I realise I had completely the wrong error code(s) there are: P02E9-73 Diesel intake air flow position sensor circuit high P02E5-71 Diesel intake airflow control stuck closed P02E1-00 Diesel intake air flow control - Performance - I assume that these are still the throttle body...

Ok another day….cold and frosty but sunny! - I’ve had to temporarily park the Haldex as I realise I need to get all the wheels in the air to rotate the prop to reach the bolts so it’s semi undone :/ - I completed stage 1 of the gearbox oil change, so drained and refilled for the first time. -...

Although- if you drop the tank are you working through the same access hole - could this not be made easier by making the underseat hole larger?

Just read the process for dropping the tank - sounds like a real faff!
