    Are they really any good ?

    We got a 2006 td4 Freelander 1 great car looks good parts not expensive just use as a car have not put tow bar on it and might use it for going up a dirt track and that's all. The td5 disco would pull 3.5 tons off road no problem, but the Freelander will run for 8 hours at 130 kmh and use well...

    Another td4 starting problem

    Have looked at repair kit for pressure regulator ("o" ring and seal) I can buy them off ebay UK but on a £12 item there is I think about £8 postage and £7 import duty to pay, if I can not find one here I will get one on order

    Another td4 starting problem

    Other thing is as the engine does start for around 2 to 5 seconds on first turn of the key I would think there is not a leak in high pressure side but in low pressure side and the first start is fuel left in high pressure side?

    Another td4 starting problem

    I thought that the air would get into the leak off pipes then as the low pressure pump pumps diesel up the return leak off (when engine not running but low pressure pump is turned on) this would allow air into the low pressure side when all turned off? but this is not really my thing

    Another td4 starting problem

    They all look good might try taking the leak off pipe off that goes back to filter blocking it off and seeing if it drops over night

    Another td4 starting problem

    Hi all I have a problem with our td4 Freelander 1 2006 for some time it has not been the best of starters for some time, but is getting worse. It seems to have a problem with the diesel dropping back to the tank (so air getting in somewhere. If you just get in and try to start it it will try to...

    Help!

    Is the starter motor turning the engine? If it is not turning the engine is there a clicking noise when you turn the key (starter solenoid) working ? Did you return to the car and it would not start? people will need as much information as you can give them to be able to help

    Cranking but no life

    Did you run out of Diesel? was the engine running and it spluttered to a stop or did you go to start it and it did not start and because it was low on fuel you thought you had run out, it may have been the key ? always good to look at all options
