Hi Datatek and thanks for your advice……yes, I’m of the same thoughts myself about the ECU. I’ll check the battery voltage as you suggested and see what it is in the morning. Just to elaborate, mines a 2003 TD6…so basically an X5! I’ve actually bought an ECU for it (the white one) but I’ve heard...

Looks like a new OEM pump then.....cheers!!

Hi, many thanks......it crossed my mind that it might be that but before laying out money I just wanted to see what others thought. Is there anyway that I can test the head unit? Again many thanks for a prompt reply. Sorry meant to ask, are these prone to failure?

Hi to all, I've just signed up to this forum as it seems to be the best Landy one around! I'm hoping that someone out there can help. I have been given the above vehicle with a blown engine.....so replaced the lump, new fuel pump as the old one had seized and a new battery. Started it up and...
