Just to add, on one of the other threads we have discussed that it could be bits from the O ring causing the problem with the injectors. My car has been doing the same as yours, but I am on holiday and its parked up for two weeks till tonight. I am worried it's not going to start tonight when I...

MAF, MAP and the pesky HpFP regulator O ring. O ring costs a fiver so I would start there. there is a link on the other threads Alibro mentions.

no not really, thought you being a little off with the people who posted. You were certainly off with me, to which I have not responded apart from saying sorry if it was not meant that way.

Searched the whole ipad and no pics of me, so had to take one me hols in Tenerife, just this minute. worried now the hippo will not start when we get home tomorrow night.

grenadier, I have read it several times and its how it reads, I am sorry if thats not how it is meant to read.

The first few words suggested you were. well thats how I read it anyway.

neither post above would cause the issue you have now got, so I suggest its not thanks to either of them. I would also suggest people refrain from helping you in the future.

Been loads of threads on TD4's and starting issues. My advice is start with hpfp regulator O ring. its cheap, causes the issue you are describing and if its not that you have not spent a fortune. A couple of people have quite alot of money and found it was little blighter, so that would be...

This thread has a picture of a degrading o ring. There are two recent threads of similar symptoms of not starting. This pic shows areas of the o ring missing. https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/low-pressure-fuel-pump-continually-runs-engine-wont-start.290984/

From what I have read of other peoples issues, some have split, but one photo did show that it had started to disintegrate, so you could be correct thats bits are affecting the injectors.

This is the little blighter causing so many problems

Several people have reported similar issues with no codes and its been the pesky o ring. As I said at £8 I would just fit one to elminate it.

What about the HPFP o ring, thats been the root cause of a few peoples troubles on here recently and at £8 it would be first replacement as its the cheapest.

agree with joe

I have used the screw driver but I do find the steth an improvement.

I had a very rare Nissan Sylvia 2.0 DOHC, the chain on that was very noisy. As has been pointed out it was only noisy on tick over. ran like that for several years before a friend I sold it too had to scrap it as parts were only available from Nissan and it needed discs, pads all round and rear...

get yourself some of these. I have some, they work wonders in locating rattles. However I dont put them near belts for obvious reasons but you can discount different bearings using them.

It may just need bleeding yes. However as Joe H has said its better to know the model and year as specific clutch types have different problems.

It sounds like it could have air in the system. Personally I would leave well alone, if its been like that for two years it could well stay that way till you trade it in. If you get someone to mess with it, then it could go wrong and you end up paying out.

Is that not the power for the fuel pump that sends fuel to the diesel heater on the HSE. I forgot mine had one until a couple of weeks ago I stopped to put diesel in after only driving about 800 yards and there was smoke coming from under the car. I had a little panic moment till I remembered...
